    Hello Guru's.

    I'm trying to finalise some plans for some cases i'm making. One of my plans requires my video card (any standard Geforce4) to be placed on it's SIDE, not inserted VERTICAL.

    Now, i'm not sure if this is even possible?

    Why do i want to have the video card on it's side? I want the case to be as short (in height) as possible. The video card is my biggest problem => it's the highest point in the case.

    If i can somehow place it on it's side, and then connect it to some 'L' AGP connector, then i'm in business!

    I can draw up a picture of what i'm after, if my explanation is not good enough.

    URLS? Shops that sell?

    Anyone willing to make one up and i'll pay them??

    You can get these connectors but they ain't cheap, soz I dont have a link but I think it has been covered before so no doubt someone will have a link.

    SWEET!

    also folks, herbs answered a previous post of mine


    Smallest sized motherboard?

    inside that linked to an article on TomsHardware.

    Here are some photo's of an example of the GADGET i'm after... the only problem is, is that this one in the photo is for PCI, and i'm after an AGP version...



    they also called the card a WRAPPED ADAPTER

    ITX mobos???


    also, i probably won't use that SHUTTLE mobo, but something else with a WRAPPED ADAPTER for AGP, if they exist.

    Any clues to the chance that AGP WRAPPED ADAPTERS Exist?
