Am I able to take a video card through airport check in?

I'm sure there aren't any problems, but the last thing I want to do is fry my brand new 8800gtx 😛!

Are computer components fine to go through x-ray machines?
 
fine afaik( as far as I know)

I brought my mom my old shuttle computer last Christmas, complete with cpu, video card, hd drive etc ram... still inside and no problems at the airport or when I got home.

And I don't think airport security will consider a video card a concealed weapon......
 
They xray laptops every day.

I've had my work laptop xrayed probably 100 times over the last 2-3 years... no problems.

So I can't see a video card being any different.
 
As long as it is not water cooled and if the fan has a liquid bearing, be sure to place it in a quart sized zip-top bag.
