    Is it the similar size to the 8800GTX then? Mine was a squeeze to fit in

    From the pictures it looks to be quite a bit longer than a 8800GTX

    Just done some research and apparently they are both 10.5" long. I think the 260 just looks longer/bigger cos of the chunky and sleek cooler on it.
