  • Zotac and Geforce do some small factor GPU's, it depends on what kind of gaming is needed.
    Just out of curiosity what are you using them in the car for?
    Sorry. I wasn’t ‘using’ it in the car. I was transporting it to work and I popped it in glove box at petrol station when I got out. 
    Oh i see was hoping you had hooked it up and made a tesla screen in the car!
    I'm not that intelligent but sounds a great idea.

    I have a fairly large tower case with twin 200mm fans on the front and a 280mm AIO on the CPU
    twin 140mm fans venting through the top.

    Even running a 7 or 8 year old game you can feel the warmth from the top where the radiator and fans
    are fitted. Cram that into a case 1/4 the size and you need to push a lot of air through them to keep the
    same temperatures or you need to reduce the power consumption which hits the performance.

    The last games machine I did was in a Corsair Obsidian 250. Full size PSU and graphics card. Mini-ITX mobo. Cube shape. Also took optical drive which more people are leaving out. Nice solution but they seem to have discontinued it.
  • Blimey, my graphics card on it's own is bigger than that thing, it is never going to fit a decent GPU.

    Up to 290mm. It was fine. I think this is probably a 'my gadgets are better than yours' type conversation?
