Simple question really.

Does a Leadtek WinFast A400 GT TDH fit in the SN95G5 Shuttle XPC? The HSF looks a bit big, and some have commented on its size, but I saw nothing to consider it a 2 slot design.

As a sub question, should the HSF be too big, is there a 3rd-party HSF solution to the problem, or should I look at another brand?

Oh, and Leadtek was the reference card for NV's 6800 line right? or was it eVGA?


Edit: Ok, I got info that it DOES take 2 slots, thanks sparrow_69

The leadtek 6800gt HSF takes up an extra pci slot next to the agp slot. Therefore whether or not it would fit in your shuttle depends on if you have an open pci slot next to the card.

But wouldn't the orientation/position of the HSF be towards the outside of the box instead of the open pci slot? Hmmm I need more research...
 
It's a 2 slot card, and no it won't fit inside a shuttle, unless you cut the chassis. Some people do this to fit Arctic Silencers and other similar 2-slot coolers.
