I'm stumped!

I'm constrained as to how far I can go due to size restrictions; it has to go in this:

The card has to be under 8 inches in length to fit in there, but I'm going to be using it at 1920x1200 on the 2405.
I was thinking initially of the 7950 GT (I built the spec around that card) but having seen some newer cards come out (8600 GTS, 8950 GTS etc etc) am wondering which one to get?

Any help appreciated!
 
You will be very restricted since all the decent cards are 9 inches at least.

I think a 8600gts will fit, and that's the best you'll get. x1950 pros, 8800gts etc are all 9 inches. I think the 7950gt is too (I could be wrong!).

edit- ouch, just saw your monitor res, and your not going to be able to play new games at the native res with any card under 9 inches. You really need the 11 inch 8800gts for that res, lol.
