All I can say right now is that it barely fit into my MacPro (listed in sig).

I can take a look this weekend, I'm surprised it's not listed somewhere.

You will need at least 12 inches clear for this card. Only one of my PC cases will allow for it. A Corsair 400R.

There is a little more clearence between the actual stuff on the cards (those little chips or whatever) and the part on the computer it sits in . So it is not as tricky to install as the TDM cards .

How about the HEIGHT of the card? Anybody know if the card will fit in a PCI slot like this in my Mac Pro?
