I finally made a decision and went for a Rad 9800 pro while I wait for Socket 939/PCI-E to settle down. I wouldnt mind fitting an Arctic VGA cooler rev 3 to it, as my Shuttle is pretty warm.

Will this fit in a Shuttle? I know someone makes a card with it pre-fitted and I think someone said it would squeeze in.
I've got an SN41G2, and my PCI slot is being used (I dont think that matters?).
Cheers.
Ok, it looks like it might not fit if I'm using the PCI slot :(
isnt the AGP on the outer side on this shuttle like my SN45G if so its a no no
It won't fit iirc due to the agp slot being near the case side :(
Nevermind. Thanks anyway :)
The mesh case accessory helps reduce the heat, but it will make the machine about 3dB noisier. The choise is yours
3db is not much tbh :)
where do you get mesh case covers from and are they easy to DIY?
or you can just do this: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/sho...eadid=17278369
I'm using the Vantec Iceberq 4 cooler on my 9700 pro in my shuttle and it seems to be doin the trick pretty nicely ........running at 9800pro speeds
Ta for that :) cos i know the stock cooler sucks big time :(
thing is theres 2
Vantec Iceberq4 CCB-A4C Copper VGA cooling kit with Blue LED
and
Vantec Iceberq4 Pro CCB-A4P VGA Cooling kit with blue LED
