I just bought a Shuttle SN21G5 and I was wondering what's a decent video card that runs cool I can safely put in this thing without worrying that it will overheat. I'm thinking of picking up a eVGA 7600GT. Any other suggestions, tips, etc. is welcome. Thanks.

As the Sn21G5 can only accept single slot cooled cards, any 7900GT or 7600GT will be fine. Just try to find one that doesn't use the stock nvidia cooler though as they are noisy.

Th Ati x1600 series are the coolest but aren't the fastest, x18 & x19 series are just hot when used with a shuttle.

Thanks for the advice! I went ahead and purchased the 7600GT. The 7900GT is just way too expensive for me. I don't do alot of gaming to begin with. Doom3 and Call of Duty 2 look way better now than before with my previous rig.
