AXLE NVIDIA® GeForce® 8800GT size: 9 inches (W) X 4.736 inches (H)
Hope this helps.
My case dimensions are • 22.9" (H) x 8.4" (W) x 20.2" (D) but I did find a good amount of room inside for a few GTX280's. The GTX280's are pretty much same size as the 8800's are.
If you are wanting to keep the card cool then I would get a bigger case if they are cramped inside you can have airflow issues and they will overheat if not maintained and cleaned out from dust etc.
ya was trying to save a few $ with a mid tower..guess to could shuck out an extra 20 or so for a decent sized case...just to be sure hehe. anyway thanks for ur input Mr. Staff Member
