Shuttles & graphics card heatsink size query

[psilotek]

Thinking of going down the path of the Shuttle :) and I’ve got a query:

I’ve got a Leadtek Ti4200 MYVIVO GF4 card and the card has a large heatsink covering both sides of the card and I would guess adding about 1cm to it’s overall height – is this going to be an issue in a Shuttle?

Are there any resources online listing graphics cards that won’t fit?

Also any issues powering fairly hungry USB devices like the Hercules MP3 DJ Console?


Ta,

I had one of them cards when they were cheap on ebuyer, and it fitted into my shuttle no problems.
Also the USB should be able to handle pretty much anything, im running lights, external HDDs and all sorts from it.
So i think you should be fine.

That's what I wanted to hear :)
