    The first time one falls out, and blows the card and the mobo, you will change your mind. It will happen with something silly like brushing against the monitor lead or better still pulling another lead which happens to have wrapped itself round the monitor lead.

    Is no one here worried about EM interference? There will be no longer a metal case to shield all that comming from the computer. :

    this is a guess but i think it would let off magnetics like a speaker (unshielded) does...meaning if next to a monitor it will make it go funny colors, and interfere with other electronics as well.
