I'm gonna build a comp...

the case i gonna get is this one
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811208005

gonna have 8800GTS as well for the same build... but i'm worried that the GPU wont fit in the case... been reading some review that the GPU is quite BIG...

also, i haev a plan of going SLI later after the build is done and i have enough money again... therefore, again the concern of whether the case can fit all of that... if not can you guys recommend me one? along that price range... but definitely have to be below $100. hopefully?:o

thanks guys!!
 
I would think that graphics card would fit in that case it looks like there is more than enough room for one and you should be able to fit two in there.
 
Haha oh man I just saw this thread again, and so many dirty thoughts came to mind. Anyhow, as for a choice, it's personal preference/cooling preference, etc. Of course there's different qualities, but it depends what you want. A simple case with a fan on the side, or a deluxe case with places for 4 fans, a window on the side, and a sliding or pivoting drive cover, etc.
Also, whether you want a light case(aluminum), or any other kind.
 
I got the antec 900 it has 4 fans and a lot of room but it depends on what your looking for that case looks as like it will have the room you need if you feel its not like Styrak go full size then
 
:confused: ............................ lol... :D

guess i wasnt thinking straight either when i wrote the title.... hahahaha.....
anyway thanks for the help guys....

What is your budget? There are a lot of mid-size cases that will fit that particular card. The card is 10 to 12 inch's long am I right? I'm sure you could get that card in the case you picked out. Though full size is good for extra space. Something like this.

Looks kinda shitty but I'm sure it would work fine.
Just throw away the PSU if you get it. :P
 
would the case I picked out at the top be able to hold the 8800GTS in SLI mode?? as for the PSU, I picked OCZ GameXStream 700W

heck... this is my proposed gaming rig... opinions are most welcomed... :D
