I am a total newbie, and so if I get flamed for being an idiot I deserve it. Onto my question. I am addicted to Half Life 2 - so much so that I want a computer now! My friend had an old Gforce 4 laying around that he will give to me, and I want t oknow if a regular video card will fit into this micro ATX case.

Or if there is any other reason not to get that case. I know that they run a little hot and it has a bullshit proprietary on board audio card, but I guess I really like that it is small (cause my room is barely larger than a broom closet). Well, let the flaming begin. I am sure that I didn't provide enough info to qualify an answer, so if you need more info than that - let me know.

Regards, Jason Kennedy

That's damn right. Find out the system specs inside the MicroATX case. Also you have to find out if the card is GeForce4 Ti :smile: or GF4 MX :frown:
