Best Low-Profile GPU???

[motasim]

What is the best (highest performance) Low-Profile GPU currently available? Anything to be released soon? Thanks!

I would say the 5770 below, availability in Europe looks dodgy.

That's not low profile - it's single slot.
This is low profile: http://www.tcmagazine.com/tcm/news/...-5770-low-profile-edition-packs-arctic-cooler






The best low profile card that's available from overclockers is:

A much better buy would be a 9800gt low profile:

Yeah you're right, still if you can deal with the extra with width of the single slot, that's I would go for.

That's a very nice looking 5770, it'll probably be quite loud though, looks like it uses the same cooler as a refernece 4850.

But as has been said, the best low profile card is that 9800GT.

I think the height is the issue here Raven.
As above says, probably 9800gt, what games are you looking to play and at what resolution?
