I have an old Monarch Computers Hornet (about twice the size of a Shuttle) that has had issues with it's video cards since day 1. The SLI (same issues when I pull 1 out) 7900GT's frequently crash when changing resolution and cause me all sorts of fits all the time. I've tried multiple OS's and more drivers than you can shake a stick at. Overclocking them 2-3 mhz use to keep them more or less happy, but not really any longer.

I'm looking to replace them, but can't find any specs on any of the video cards out there relating to how long they are. I've got about 10" and a smidge of free space. Anybody know the lengths on the current crop of higher end cards? Don't care if it's an ATI or Nvidia, and probably not gonna do the SLI thing again.
 
8800GTX, 9800GTX, 9800GX2, GTX 260, and GTX 280, are all the same length (10.5") and have the power connections on the top of the card (I believe) -- unlike, for example, the 9" 8800GT, which actually needs extra clearance to plug the PCI-E connector at the end of the card.
