Im getting a Geforce 8800 gts, but my case is too damn small
im sure it wont fit.

so help me plz !
 
Cut a hole in the side of your case. It will look really 1337!

AFAIK any full sized case should fit it fine.
 
I'm getting an Antec Performance One for my new computer (which has an 8800gts)
 
Your GTS will fit Antec 900 fine, however you must remove the internal 120mm fan cage for 8800GTX.

Good Luck.
 
Well, not any ATX case. There are certainly some that will not fit an 8800GTX. My old case would barely fit a x1950pro, and the 8800GTX is bigger than that I believe.
 
Love google people.. sheeesh

I could barely get my 8800GTX in my Antex sonata 2. Barely but it fits lol.

Almost any case will fit the 8800gts 320mb btw ;)

Thats a really good link.


Why is everyone getting a GTS. The GTX isn't that much more expensive and it will blow the pants off of the GTS.

EDIT:
Ah shit, once again I have mistaken the price of the GTX, thinking it could be had for ~$350. I still think it's all or none. I would save another 150 and get the GTX without question. Is the GTS even better than what you have? Ask yourself that first.

If you have at most any 7 or 6 series card, then of course it's better, the 8800GTS kills any 7 series card. It's better then any 7 series card by a huge margin, except for the 7950 GX2, which the 8800GTS is only about 10 FPS better.

Indeed. My x1950xt didn't run stalker as smooth as I wanted it to. The gts 640 for 330 eur is a great deal but it wouldn't have made my pc that much faster, so I just wasted 500 on a gtx. Not sure it was worth it but I'm sure as hell happy with it. It's running stalker like a dream.
 
Antec 190

You shouldn't base your benchmark on STALKER, than was buggy to hell to even warrant a benchmark
 
Yes I know but I bought the thing for stalker. Compared with my x1950xt it's about 50% faster in 3dmark05 and 80% faster in 3dmark06. I know 3dmark doesn't say shit about performance in games either. But it's twice as fast in stalker and that's mainly what I'm happy about.
