NVidia GTX 280 in an Antec Solo?

[aln688]

I've typically only bought ATI cards, but I'm starting to look at the NVidia GTX 280. Two questions:

(1) Which GTX 280 is generally the best value?
(2) Has anyone installed a GTX 280 in an Antec Solo case?

Thanks all.

GTX 280 won't fit into a Antec Solo. You can fit a 4870 in there though.

Really? Ach! I've already got an Asus 4870 card, it's one of the thick double width types and it leaves about 1/2" from the end of the card to the drive bays. However I was interested in the GTX 280 cards as an "upgrade" as I intend on running Crysis when my PC is fully built, I also like the GTX 280's power connectors are on the edge of the card, not the end. That's somewhat killed my upgrade plans, thanks though.
