Two quick questions. What is the best processor and GFX card i can fit into my shuttle.

Shuttle SN26p

The SN26P was socket 939 wasnt it? also had SLI if i remember rightly (basically the upgrade from the SN25P)
If I'm rememberin it right then the best cpu you could get would probably be somethin like an FX60, Opteron dual core or a high end X2 dual core or somethin (I'm thinkin Opteron 185, X2 5200+ kinda thing)
As for graphics, i dunno? lol Didn't it have a special heatpipe for the GPU's? if so then you won't be limited to single slot cooler cards and it would just be a matter of length more than anything. Shuttle PSU's are very high quality and tend to run basically everythin you throw at them so dont worry about the power requirements of high end GPU's too much

Thanks for quick replys. Yeah,its 939,so the FX60 is best. I see one was just sold on ebay for £110.
I have just got a new 450w PSU. So to the GFX, I currently have 7800 GTX. I could just get another one and use in SLi. But guessing one of the newer cards would probably be better.
