P2B w/Slotket in a Inwin case??

[Mikelpsxer]

I am looking to get a fcpga p3, so I need a slotket, but my problem is I don't think that any of them will fit in my computer w/ the setup I have. I have a asus p2b and an Inwin mid tower (don't know the part #), but the power supply is sideways right above the processor. So I guess my question is- Does anyone know of a slotket that will fit in there and not touch the power supply?

Anyone? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Mike

Hmm that's a tought situation then but i think it should fit since i assume your original cpu was a slot-1 type correct?

Asus S370-DL

when i was building rigs... thats the only card i could find that consistantly fit in the inwin A500 without considerably bending the mobo

Sound like you own the A500 midtower, someone has to have had this combo before.

On http://www.bunta.com Support Highlites part it says that neither Abit nor Epox slotckets will fit on your case.

I have an InWin A500 with a P2B and a sloket.. works fine.. tho there isn't alot
of room to play with...

Update you can always goto the InWin's website to make
sure you have the correct model..

Actually InWin came out with an S500 model, which is just the A500 with the PS moved up to give more clearance. There might be a couple other minor differences, but the clearance is the main one.

 

[Stringy]

Yes, I've actually have used the S500, and it has no clearance problems...
it adds a smaller profile (its narrower)
Adds a place for a Fan below the PSU
Adds a drive "rail" system for screwless drive installation

the S500 is quite nice.. tho, I kinda like my A500's sliding MoBo tray
(which is gone in the S500)

for the a500, i've use the msi 6905 and an aopen slotket with no problems.

Use a MSI 6905 rev 2 sloket. I have an Inwin A500 and it was the only one that fit.

Thanks for all the help guys. The case is the A500. Sorry I forgot which one it was. So I guess I can get either the msi6905 or asus slocket and it should fit ok.
Thanks again, Mike.
