We know But it's for system integrators only, no retail at the moment. Although Gigabyte is looking into this.

Damn. I was really excited when OCUK put it up for preorder.

Thanks! I added the OCUK listing to the other thread.

Personally, I'm starting to think that whoever Guru3D spoke to at Gigabyte was full of shit (and that perhaps Tomshardware posted the press release early, since no one else was covering it at first).

Unless OCUK did a photoshop, why would Gigabyte make a product shot showing a retail box for an OEM-only product?

Yeah let's hope so, it would be a shame for an ITX card of the GTX 970 to not make it to retail.

If someone made a full cover water block, I can really see some interesting builds with this card.

The GTX 670/760 block should fit if it's a short reference board (I presume), according to EKWB's configurator.

It's taller than reference 970s, so the short 670/760/970 blocks won't fit it.

Inno3D, EVGA, Palit and Gainward make small cards that are compatible with the small 670 blocks as Phuncz says.
