Is this form dead? Seems literally perfect for what I need. Matx is just a touch too big, and all I need is one extra pcie x1 port (2 in total) anyway...

Am I dreaming of finding a decent 1155 board in DTX?

There are several mATX boards with two PCI-e slots, I'm not sure what type of case you're looking for, but some cases are oversized to begin with, so unless you already have a DTX case, which was specified by AMD btw, it's better to find a compact desktop case that barely fits the mATX and the difference is like one inch: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130647
Plus if you're buying a medium-performance card it's better to go with a single flagship card like the GTX 680, 7970, 7990, or 690...
 
Cheers for the response but I'm building this into a custom case hence the ask.
