    Are you sure that RAM, HDD or floppy cables won't block the card (or make it very hard to set in place)?
    BTW, there's nothing better than Lian Li for cheap cases
    Or, if you want something even more cheap, I'd sugget the Chieftech DX-01WD-U, you can find with with or black, both as a middle or full tower.
    I have the middle tower version and it used to accomodate a Sapphire X1950PRO AGP and some HDDs plus active fan, so it should be able to fine a GT just fine, especially if you remove the lower HDD support.

      Just been looking at this one. It looks teh sex.



      Do you think that will be fine?
      I heard the 8800gt is a very very long card. Which is why im trying to make sure i get a decent case to support it.

      I can't find any of the ones you mentioned. But thanks for the help.

        Most cases should be fine. It's the 8800GTX that's a long card, I don't think the GT is any bigger than the X1900XT I used to have.

          Case I have, probably the best value aluminium case out there. My 8800GTS fits with ease, so you'd have no problem with a 8800GT... little bit over your budget though. Comes with 2x120mm fans installed, they are a tad noisy at full RPM but then the 8800GT fan will probably be louder anyway.

            Just incase anyone is wondering. I bought one of these


            and http://www.dabs.com/productview.aspx...11145,44070000

            I had to get the cheapest case as possible, seeing as i paid £192 for the card. Didn't want to spend too much more. Hopefully those will do me fine.
