The Apollo 1240/1260 cards can be run in a desktop, but only with 32MB RAM (2nd SIMM hits keyboard), and there isn't much room for cooling since the CPU faces up. I use one of these, and a quiet 40mm fan next to the CPU, with a small shroud to channel the air sideways. Almost silent, and keeps it very cool.

DOH! Amigakit is actually selling the Blizzard, don't know why I was thinking Apollo. Anyhow, no problem with the Blizz in a desktop case, but you'll have to keep the trapdoor cover off and raise the computer off the desk a bit (CPU faces down). 128MB on the card is possible.
