My new 8800gtx is a nice tight fit in my shuttle....

I don't think you can get a much tighter fit then this....

God damn :eek:

Was considering an 8800gtx for my sn25p, i assume it'll barely fit but the cpu would be taking a hammering with the heat being sucked from the gfx card into the ice sink.
 
I thought our 8800gts in our shuttle was crazy! :eek:

Ps yeah the temps of the CPU rise dramatically when gaming!

Before the CPU would be 40ish full load but now it goes up to near 70! Oh well single core Anthlon64 CPU's R cheap as cheaps...
 
lol thats mad, about 14months ago I had the sn26p i think...the sli one with a 4800+ and two XFX 7800GTX and my cards were 90+c while gaming, was getting artifacts all over so I sold it all.

LOL...I use to run two leadtek 7800gtx in SLI overclocked to 490/1400 (if i remember the overclock numbers right)

I had no problems with artifacts with them...

Thats gonna be a nice hot box :)

Air cooled in my old big case with plenty vents, 8800 GTX - 85 deg peeking :o
The highest i seem my 8800gtx reach is 80c so far....But having only a amd 4400 x2 cpu it don't stess the 8800gtx out enough to make it reach very high temps...

My cpu temps have been fine...Remember the sn26p has a 70mm & 92mm cpu fan vs 70mm & 80mm for a sn25p...

The top mounted raptor harddrive is my only worry it seems so far...

These 8800gtx cards seems to give out a lot less heat then my last x1900xt-x did..
