Unless I have bad angle interpretation, this seems like a one slotted FX!
Not only this, but MSI claims 30db operation noise and even lower temps!

Who knows though. MSI is known to be very good with their quality, and pricing. This is the only chance the FX5900 has, to be considered IMO.

Personally, I wouldn't care if my gfx card has one or two slots as long as the cooling is adaquete. Space is rarely a major issue for me in the machines I build. The main thing I think is the reduction in noise, a vacume running in the middle of your symphony is disturbing... just doesn't sync up.
