6800GT Fit in Shuttle SFF?

[Gandalf90125]

Does anyone have any experience trying to fit a 6800GT or similar size card into a Shuttle SFF such as the SN45, SN41, SK43, SB61, etc.?

I was able to get a Voodoo5 into an SK41, but it was a tight fit getting the molex plugged in since the connector on the card ends up being almost at the front of the case. (The card is almost as long as the entire computer.) I would imagine a similar situation with a 6800GT or similar.

yes they will fit.. except the dual slot ones.

I have the BFG 6800 OC 128 + a HUGE Arctic NV Silencer 5 cooler mounted in a Biostar iDEQ 200N, no problems, fit like a glove. I think it's the same basic size & layout as the Shuttle SFF.

I have shuttle with a Radeon 9800, no dual slot fit.

i'm pretty sure it won't.. i've worked w/ the sn41 and sk43, and I'm pretty sure it won't fit.

Mainly b/c the card's top will be facing the side of the case. And it fit any card I stuck in there perfectly. So anything bigger (dual slot) won't fit

if the 6800gt is a single slot solution, than yes it'll fit

the dual slot video cards will not

How do I go searching for a single slot 6800GT?

How about this this $200 6800 at CompUSA? Are the non-GTs single-slot cards?

Biostar put is AGP 2nd in (case > PCI > AGP)


Shuttle puts it first (Case> AGP > PCI)

Because of this the Biostar has a bit more room but you would have to give up your PCI slot to take advantage of the extra room.

Most (all?) of the 6800GTs I've seen are single slot. But most (not all) of the Ultra and Ultra Extreme cards I've seen, however, are so wide that they take up two slots.
