Installation

Knowing that I was going to be installing an 8800 for testing I was prepared. I removed my hard drive enclosure prior to receiving the card knowing that with it in, the Ultra simply wouldn't fit. The GTX and Ultras are simply huge cards, measuring up at about 9 inches in total before purchasing anything in the 8800 range, check it will fit in your case.

As you can see this card overhangs the motherboard by a good inch so it is very important to check this card will fit in your case before purchasing.

Also, the fact that the Ultra uses twin 6pin power connectors does make cable management a bit more difficult than with most cards as each has their own seperate cable.
