can someone advise me which of the newer shuttles will allow me to fit a ati 3850 graphics card in please.

also want to be able to fit a dvd drive and ideally three hard drives aas its going to be used as a htpc.

many thanks

I'm pretty sure any of them will fit that - the 3850 is quite a short card.

im looking at the

Shuttle XPC SP35P2
Shuttle XPC SG33G6

should a ati 3850 fit in both

or Shuttle SN68PTG5

HD3850 definately fits in all three. I have put a 3850 and 8800gt in SG33G5 & SG21G2

With the G series cases you will only get 2 HDs and DVD in it. You can get 3 HDs and a DVD in the P series

I'd wait for Shuttle to release a Phenom capable AMD system instead of going with their current model. If you wanted to go AMD line.

only the P and P2 designs will hold 3 hard drives without modification. that card will fit in any shuttls so long as its single slot p and p2 can hold duel slot
