I saw this, and Newegg's specs claim "single-slot" and "low-profile" (brackets included).
But I have a PNY GT620 here, that is ostensibly sort of single-slot, with LP brackets included, and the heatsink sticks out far enough that in a test install in a board that has PCI-E x16, x1, x1, I could NOT plug in a 2-port SATA6G controller into the x1 slot next to the PCI-E x16 slot, with the video card installed in the slot.
Unfortunately, that's the configuration that I NEED for a client's machine, to upgrade both their GMA4500 chipset IGP, and their IDE-only SATAII ports, to AHCI SATA6G ports.
(Biostar G41D3C micro-ATX board, in a slimline case.)
Edit: The card I currently have in stock appears to be this one:

Which is wider than a single slot.
Edit: Also found this PNY GT610 card, appears to have the same (supposedly) single-slot cooler of the PNY GT710:

And it's cheaper.
So, I already ordered the GT710 off of ebay, so I ordered some more of the PNY GT610 single-slot off of BestBuy. Sigh.
