Highend videocards in Shuttle XPCs

[Bateluer]

If you are using an SFF system, not just those made by Shuttle, such as FIC, post what videocard you are using in it and if you are having any problems. I will be building a system around the SN41G2, or possible the SN45G, however, the integrated GF4 MX is a POS. I am thinking of adding a Radeon 9700 Pro to the system, but it seems to be more hit or miss with stability. Some people are having no problems, others seem to have problems galore.

So, if you are using a Radeon 9500, 9600, 9700, or a 9800, please let me known if you are having any issues and how you solved them, is applicable.

I have the SK41G and recently installed a radeon 9700 pro. I have had no stability problems at all and as long as you keep the area around the case fairly clear of obstruction (for heat purposes) the case stays cool. Hope this helps.

I saw a review of the SN41G2 at HardOCP using the 9700 Pro as well, and I picked up a link in another thread which sold various XPCs with 9700 Pros as well. Looks like it should work, but I still hear about people having issues at Sudhian.

SN41G2 and a 9500Pro - no problems at all! I love it!

Have you softmodded it to 9700 status or left it alone?

I have 2 systems

ss51g with a FX Geforce ti 4200
sb51g with a AIW Radeon 9700

Both work fine.

I am thinking the 9700 will work without issues. What about a 9800 Pro?
