Zotac made a wee splash on the market years ago with their ITX and Nano products and recently have been shrinking GPUs. They have continued to carve out a small piece of the market, recently releasing the Zotac RTX 2070 Mini with a smaller price as well as a smaller stature. There is more to this card than just the trim job, the GPU is a Non-A TU-106, which shares the same design but will have limited overclocking potential, if any at all. That also seems to drop the price, which is a welcome feature.
The gang over at Bjorn3D tested it on a number of games as well as seeing if there is a way to bump the clocks up in their full review.
"One of the first aftermarket partner model 2070’s has rolled in. It is from our friends at Zotac, the RTX 2070 Mini. This model does not appear to be a Overclock model on the surface and might even be a non A GPU due to its less diminutive price point."

Well with all that China GPU demand gone one problem just may be solved by the other problem! Fat luck expecting any RTX price reductions from any lax China GPU demand if the GPU wafer production is knackered by some contamination issues.
