Quick Query: Will a BFG 8800 GTX fit in a Dell 9200 case?

Postby Big Daddy » Sat Jun 09, 07 3:54 pm

Really bothered about this. Looked all around their website and on the internets for some general information but alas, to no avail. I wondered if anyone here had any general knowledge on the subject.

Thank you for your impending help.

H: 46.05 cm (18.13 inches)
W: 18.75 cm (7.38 inches)
D: 45.42 cm (17.88 inches)

Given this spec, I would say it might do, but it may also be a bit small.

Why do you need a >750mb GFX card anyways? :P

Waste of money tbh; the 512MB GTX is fine for me; topping 300 fps on DE_Dust2.

There is no 512MB GTX, there's a 640MB GTS if that's what you mean :?:

*claps*

My school runs on Dells. Not sure if the problem is the computers, or the star network configuration, but they're always running dead slow, despite 1024mb RAM, 2.76GHz processors, and other flashy tech compared to my school's shitty standards. *

*Happy now, Jon? ;)

I doubt a 8800GTX would fit in a dell case, they tend to be super small with zero room for correct airflow :/

It's flashy, considering what my school used before. ( Windows 98 )

Our school comps are by a company called Tulip, I've never even heard of them LOL.

They get the job done for what's needed at school, except any higly graphical program like Photoshop at school just won't work if you need it to work within like 3 weeks

My school computers have 2 gb of RAM, 3GHz Dual Core processors, and they still run dead slow. I think its just the network they run on.

It's bad, I'm running one too, this rig is like 4 years old and I've not changed the graphics card since I built it.
