IP35 Pro - Graphics card physical compatibility?

[Conrad]

Hi

I have just acquired an Abit IP35 PRO and looking at the PCI Express slot
there is not a lot of clearance between it and the nearest m/b components.

Can someone with this board suggest a mid range graphics which fits OK as I
can't find any compatibility charts for this?

I usually fit a Zalman VGA cooler to my graphics cards for quietness but I
guess this is a non starter so any info on quiet(ish) cards or even passive
cooled would be appreciated.
I don't overclock or play games that would require high end cards.

Thanks in advance for any info.

I have the IP35 Pro and run an 8800 GTX in it which is a pretty massive
two slot card and have no problems. I *did* have to dremel the case a
bit, but no problem with the mobo. You can see pictures of the 8800 GTX
