Why? Your card is pretty much exactly as fast as a GT, and you have more video memory.

Ya-no.
GTS is basically on-par with the GT... slightly worse, but it's 10-15 fps in most games... it's inbetween the 640 gts and the GTX...
If you have a GTS it's not worth upgrading to a GT... if you have like an 8600GT or an older card, then the 8800gt is the best option at this time...

Looks like a UV reactive fan under UV light.
The GTS has more bandwidth me thinks...
I don't know, I don't think I'm as anal with my backside as you are. LOL.
....Yea and I make ass jokes as the GTS vs GT battle ensues in the Rate My Cables thread.
I got this pic from this thread. Do you guys know what kind of fan and sleeving that he used? I really love the color of the fan. It is REAL BLUE, not the average light blue.
I think this is what you wanted?

It's MSI but it's still an 8800gt 512mb, for $208 after rebate, too!
Note that Dell says they ship on the 10th of December.HybReD1234

Just take a highlighter or large diameter pen, and wrap the cable around it lengthwise. Then crease the resulting tube at right angles to "turn" the cable.

You don't have a knife/exact-o-knife and scissors?...
Could never trust my fingers to pull off a precision cut as such ... I may be a violinist, but messing up the IDE cable worries me a bit.

Here's my rig before with a small amount of cable management:
This is my rig now. Replaced and added some new parts, drilled out a hole for the ATX cable up top, punched a hole for the main power and IDE cable on the side and painted the whole thing flat black. I also reversed the HD cage to hide the wiring. It took a while, but it was definitely worth it, hopefully this computer will be able to tide me over until I can finally do a new build late next year.

Here is my current Cable Setup, can't really do anything else the case is so small and I have a lot of stuff in there,
I am hoping I will be getting the Silverstone TJ07 for Xmas or the money to get it after etc etc, has those hard drives are cooking my 8800GTX 75-80idle in Hot/Warm Weather with my room being hotter (which mean no gaming still night time).
When I do get the Silverstone case I will be doing the cable management to the best I can possibly can, like some of cable managements your guys have done like above!, (however with little modding of the case that is).
