For the low profile discrete video card market, I would like to see AMD release a much faster card in the 30W to 40W range.
The current 30W card (the R7 240) only has 320sp @ 720Mhz/780Mhz with 128 bit DDR3.
With so many capable SFF Pre-builts made by HP, Lenovo and Dell floating around out there I think a much better card is warranted now.
For a 40W card from AMD, I think something like a Bonaire GPU at 896sp at 500 Mhz with 128 bit underclocked GDDR5 would get the job done.
