Judging by the HSF I am going to guess G92 based card, possibly 8800GTS if I had to guess a specific card.

Yes, there's sellotape on the SSD. And yes, there is a SATA cable with nothing plugged into it there. Don't judge me

BTW I never run with the side of my PC-60 case on cause it gets too hot. Doesn't bother me in the least!
