I'm trying to cram a BFG 7800 GTX in a Shuttle Sn25P
Does anyone have any expeence that they can share?
 
i heard that you either have to remove the fan duct that it hits completely or cut a slot into the fan duct with snips to make room for the back of the card.

i read somewhere also that if you put the vid card in directly after the processor (meaning NOT last) you can squeeze it in without actually hitting the duct, but be careful of the capacitor on the card because it comes VERY close the the duct and may bend or break.

i'm expecting these same two components monday so let me know how it goes!

I placed a 7800gtx in a SN25P with no problem. Like the other guy said, I had to to install the vid card after the cpu step (instead of at the end as stated in the instructions) but before replacing the duct. After installing the vid card slide the duct vertically down in place being careful to slide past the capacitor. Then proceed with installing the drive cage and the rest of the stuff.
 
Thanks for the help...
Got it in, now all I need to do is get the thing working. : )
