    Just wondering...
    Would you think that this shuttle would run with this graphics card.

    Its going to be for my new gaming box, so it needs some grunt!

    Probably. It's just a question of whether it will physically fit into the box. The AGP slot is right on the edge of the case, so any dual-slot cooling solutions do not fit. But it looks OK :thumb:

    I was more worried about power considerations... if I must, I was thinking about modding an ATX PSU into a "powerbrick" style PSU for it, if that was going to stop me using that card.

    Length-wise, I have access to some other Shuttles that I've built before that I could measure up with.

    Changed my mind. Quite like the look of the SN95G5

    Its alright in my eyes, poor onboard sound, and only two usb ports on the back are its only two real drawbacks (unless you count the cost for a ballanced system based on the sn95g5)

    I'm selling my current computer to afford this, so money isn't really a problem.

    I changed my mind, and decided to go with the SN95G5 as I believe it will offer a better upgrade path in the near future. From what I understand, s754 will be the realm of the Semperons, and s939 will be where the big boys live :)
