I was wondering if someone could help me here im trying to find the smallest case that can fit a pci-e graphics card such as a 8800, the only other preference is that i can choose what ram and which core 2 duo i want. Does shuttle make the smallest?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Define smallest ?
To determine the smallest cast, tell what would be the motherboard size (ATX, mATX, etc...).

Still we need to know the motherboard form factor, such as atx or microatx, maybe even smaller.
Regardless, the 8800 Card, (gt, gts, gtx) is going to be the lmiting factor, as the smalles cases (pico-ITX, Nano-ITX, and mini-ITX) dont usually accomodate large graphics cards. Something larger such as a micro-atx is what you would be looking for.
In the end, if you really want the smalest you would have to fab your own case based on the SPECIFIC parts you have chosen.

He is right, but I would suggest not going for the smallest miniatx case. It would probably be cheaper / easier / nicer looking in the long run just to buy one that it would comfortably fit in.
