    Sn26p + 8800 Gtx

    Hi,
    I've got a baby on the way, and I'm looking to transfer the bundle of wires and tubes I currently have into a SFF case. I'm basically after ditching everything except the CPU, memory and drives.

    If I get an 8800GTX to replace my two existing graphics cards, will it fit in this chassis? Will the PSU be beefy enough to power an 8800GTX and an X2 chip?

    Cheers...

    Tom

    Im thinking no, those GFX cards need a serious amount of power, 700w and above and even though the Shuttle PSUs are amazing, im not sure id trust an X2 and 8800GTX in there...

    Nah, there to long and the heatsink will hit the floppy bay, I tried this with a 7800GTX and a arctic cooler and even that was to big.
    Dual slot coolers = no on the shuttles I am afraid.

    Just had a reply from Shuttle. Apparently they're tested and supported with the SN26P.
