Hi folks,

I'm looking to buy a 8800GT for my Shuttle cube...it has a PCI express slot but I know the 8800GT's cooler will cover the PCI slot next to it where I currently have an Audigy 2 ZX card.

Can someone please spec me a good external sound card - i.e. USB

thanks,
Stewart

To add some further details - I'm looking for a max of around £50-£60 and looking for stereo quality mainly for music and some games. Not bothered about surround sound.

The 8800GT only uses 1 slot for it's cooler, so you won't lose a slot next to it so there will still be room for the audigy.

Having said that, I'm not sure whether the heat off it will affect anything next to it.
