ASUS GeForce RTX 5060 LP is the most powerful, shortest low profile GPU currently available. It comes in at 176mm in length, but is around 2mm thicker than its Gigabyte counterpart. It is also generally the most expensive of the available low profile graphics cards. This would be our top pick for LP GPU due to its shorter length.

| VRAM | 8GB only |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
The Gigabyte RTX 5060 OC Low Profile is probably the most popular of the low profile graphics cards due to wide global availability. It is the second shortest at 182mm, thinnest at 36mm thickness and generally the cheapest.

| DIMENSIONS | 200×39×100mm (L×W×H) |
| PCIE SLOTS | 2 |
| VRAM | 8 / 16GB |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
The PowerColor Radeon RX 9060 XT Reaper is the shortest, most powerful standard height 60 class graphics card. The 9060 XT Reaper is 8mm shorter, 1mm thinner than its RTX 5060 Ti competitor and is personally the better looking card. Perfect for cases like the 5L Densium 4+ and Midori 5
Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti Windforce

| DIMENSIONS | 208×40×120mm (L×W×H) |
| PCIE SLOTS | 2 |
| VRAM | 8 / 16GB |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti Windforce is the shortest RTX 5060 Ti graphics card currently available. While its 8mm longer and 20mm taller than RX 9060 XT Reaper, it has better feature set and higher availability in most regions.
Nvidia RTX 5070 Founders Edition

| DIMENSIONS | 245×40×115mm (L×W×H) |
| PCIE SLOTS | 2 |
| VRAM | 12GB |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
The RTX 5070 FE is the smallest 70 class GPU at 245mm in length and perfectly fitted for likes of the 5L Midori 5.
PowerColor RX 9070 XT Reaper

| DIMENSIONS | 289×41×111mm (L×W×H) |
| PCIE SLOTS | 2 |
| VRAM | 16GB |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Reaper is arguably the best high-end small form factor graphics card. The next comparable high-end card is the RTX 5080 FE, which is around 30-40% more expensive but only 10-20% more performant in rasterised gaming. The 9070 XT Reaper's real strength is its 289mm length and 111mm height enabling it to fit perfectly into compact cases like Midori 7.
Nvidia RTX 5080 / 5090 Founders Edition

| DIMENSIONS | 304×40×137mm (L×W×H) |
| PCIE SLOTS | 2 |
| VRAM | 16 & 32GB |
| OVERCLOCKING SUPPORT | YES |
NVIDIA's RTX 5080 / 5090 FE are the pinnacle of high-end small form factor graphics cards, but also pinnacle level prices. The RTX 5080 & 5090 FE both share the same cooler dimensions at 304mm in length and 40mm thickness, with angled 12VPWR ports reducing overall combined height of GPU + power connector.
