I knew having 9 HDD's and over 2TB of diskspace would one day cause me a little trouble.
Good thing i can shit arond everything in the front of my case easily enough. Even the power button and floppy drive Very Happy

That's a lot of recipes.

I'm going to have to measure out my case as well - it's a decent sized Antec P180, but beginning to suspect the drive bays may interfere. Matt - what case do you have? Also, what PSU will you have in that thing. They recommend a 450 minimum which i have, but to run SLI has to take you up at least another 200 Watts.

Pity they only got their hands on the 8800GTS and not the GTX which im getting.

Still, good review

[DaForce]

Dude, you measured your case yet to see if it fits?

[jujubee]

LOL. You're terrible.

No - and honestly between a lack of time and waiting on checks to buy it, I'm kinda afraid what will happen when I take the case apart and put a measuring tape to it. I don't know if I want to know for I will be deeply saddened if JR Bobb Dobbs rules not in my favor.

[DaForce]

Better safe than sorry tho... you could always go for the GTS as its shorter, but where is the fun in that

Here is the inside of my case.

Excuse the bad quality, its from my phone at night in relative darkness.

My current video card ends just where the floppy disk controller starts (the visible yellow connector in the middle of the image) and the new one 8800gtx will extend 8cm past that point into the back of my drives, but i can move them around so it fights nicely

Linked cause its big
