| Just how big is the 8800 GTS? I was checking the newegg customer reviews on the EVGA 8800 GTS 320mb, over and over again everyone commented on how enormously huge the card was. What are the odds I won't be able to make it fit in my case/motherboard? I actually haven't bought the case or motherboard yet, so I'm trying to take this into consideration when purchasing them. Does it look like it will work with this motherboard? |

| I don't think it'll be any bigger than an 8800GTX and I got that into my case with a couple of mm's to spare. You can always measure the space you have then get the card's dimensions off a review or from a card maker's website. That way you'd know for certain. By the way, anyone on NewEgg state they couldn't get the card to fit?

| The 8800GTS is shorter than the GTX. The GTS is 23 cm. (9 inches) in length, while the GTX is 26.9 cm. (10.6 inches)
