    I have a shuttle style pc case which currently supports my 3 year loyal ATI 9500,it still runs fine but when i finnally upgrade i wanna get something like the x800 series,but does it fit,as this card appears to take 2 spaces because of fan e.t.c!!
    it looks like my AGP is right at edge of case between the case side and a pci card.

    get a bigger case for your motherboard to solve that problem

    see if can get the dimensions of the card especially thickness to see how well it sit in relation to the case side in spacing

    I guess it depends on the model of Shuttle that you have. A neighbor's kid has a SFF Shuttle that he uses for LAN parties and I believe he has a later model video card.

    That review states that an x800 will fit in a Shuttle SK83G Small Form Factor case.
