    8800GTX fit in Antec Nine Hundred?

    I want to make sure my 8800GTX will fit in this case (slot one) before I order it. Any comments? Would it be a good idea to rotate my Tuniq tower so that the air goes out the top with the 200mm fan?

    It fits, if you take out that air-duct installed in the lower drive-cage...
    Well, it would create a turned airstream towards the top, but it should give a higher amount of air to the processor..

    E6600
    Gigabyte DS4
    2gigs of G.skill PC6400
    Zalman CNPS-9500
    OCZ GameXstream 600w
    2x250gig HDDs in RAID0
    8800GTX

    And yes, installation is crazy, but he won't be yanking components in and out all the time, and with the amount of fans that you get, it's pretty good for a guy who just need something that works

    Hey, that black plastic blocking the 8800 is just a driver cage.

    You don't need that at all and can be screw out anytime.

    *As shown in the second picture that it is screw out*

    Don't let it fear you from buying this case.

    This case fits not just one but even two 8800.

    *You can also fit the driver cage and 8800 together by just installing the driver case to the bottom slot.

    Cases are more about personal style then anything else, you cant say its really a waste of money if the guy likes the style of the case.
