It was demoed as a 5750 but when the great renaming happened all the 5750 and 5770 cards became 6750 and 6770 cards... trolololo etc...
So now it's a 6750.

Costs ~£134 to get one shipped over because no retailer this side of the pond is insane enough to think they can shift a low profile double slot gaming card.
I'm musing over it though. Just for the hell of it.
This is my ITX as of yesterday:
It's slightly longer than the 5570 currently in there but it will fit lengthwise.
Width wise I have a theory. Yes the 6750 is a double slot pig but the fans probably take up most of that. With the fans and shroud removed and maybe a little trimming of the heatsink it should pop in there with no problem.
Instead of its own fans it uses the airflow from the PSU to cool it, same way a number of CPU coolers use the PSU instead of a fan for cooling.
To improve airflow in the case I'd have to put some effort into shortening the PSU cables and drilling some vents in the top right area for the PSU to breathe more easily.
Back to musing over the value of spending £134 for the amusement of packing a 6750 into a tiny case...
