A good Sandy Bridge barebones, but Shuttle's SH67H3 is better value

Great SFF. Design is simple to install and relatively easy to troubleshoot. Just some points to remember ; 1. If you install winxp make sure Sata is set to IDE ; 2. Install each driver that comes with the disc individually. The auto-install had...

Would have liked an available 3.5" drive with this model and price

Small, quite, good construction. Nice factory heatsink/fan

2 things ; While installing the processor heatsink and fan, the clips holding in on take a good amount of force. Felt like i was breaking the tabs as I installed it ; The power button is RIGHT next to your CD-ROM drive. Before I changed the power...

Small form factor ; Very quiet ; Dual-DVI output ; Ivy Bridge processors supported after firmware upgrade ; Supports BR/DVD/CD drive + two internal 3.5" HDDs

Occasionally failed to POST, requiring multiple restarts ; Suspected motherboard failure inside2 months ; Stock PSU not sufficient to run newer, powerful gfx cards ; RMA process does not cover return postage costs

This shuttle is perfect for a people who need a relatively small and light computer that still has some decent processing power. Dual DVI's are awesome! We are running two 27" 1920 x 1080 monitors off the embedded graphics (Intel HD 3000). We bought...

Case is flimsy. Super thin aluminum. The slightest impact can damage it. The first case we bought came with a damaged CPU socket. Had to RMA. Looked like it may have been returned previously because the clear plastic had been taken off the front ; Once...

It's small and affordable

The motherboard and PSU died after 1 shutdown. Could not power it back up! Only saving grace was Newegg who could offer me a refund on this unit after 30 days

Compact. Comprehensive (just add proc, RAM, HD, optical drive and video card) ; Supports Celeron through i7 LGA 1155 procs. I selected a Pentium Dual Core G850 and am quite pleased with it ; PCI-e 16x + PCI-e 1x + mini PCI-e 1x slots are supported ; I...

ASM 1042 USB 3.0 chip does not support MacOS X ; Although this Shuttle's case was designed for screw attachment of the ICE (liquid) cooler, Intel "push pins" are provided instead. This takes some getting used to as all previous Shuttles with ICE...

Great little barebones, clean, sleek and easy to set up and get running. What you'd expect from Shuttle. This is my second Shuttle XPC deployment. I use both in the inventory for data sharing and backup services for our network. I have it currently...

I assumed becuase of my first XPC, I could deploy 4 HDDs in the system, and later add RAIDs to drives via my OS install. Problem was, it's really only set up (meaning the barebone box itself) for two HDDs and one optical drive. I was hoping to install...

Small, Lightweight, Portable ; Versatile uses ; Easy to open, configure and maintain ; ICE cooling technology ; Whisper quiet under regular load ; Optional 300W and 500W power supply sold separately! (if you need the extra juice) ; PCI Express 1x, PCI...

Excess power cables have no where to go or be hidden ; Cables run over the RAM (I'd recommend RAM with some heatsinks on it) ; Cannot official ad more fans. Some side fan mounts for extra flow would have been nice ; (Unofficially I managed to place the...

Easy to put together, very quiet, nice form factor

The on-board video using the Intel will leave you disappointed if you wanted to say stream a video from Netflix. Best upgrade to a separate video card. Some included and installed SATA cables are ever so slightly too short
