Shuttle XPC SD39P2 handles Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Extreme

By Darren Murph | March 2, 2007

Although Shuttle’s been known to kick out a few majorly fresh offerings that deviated from the company norm from time to time, the XPC SD39P2 seems to be sticking quite firmly to the beaten path, as it retains the stylish good looks of its all-black predecessor and just adds support for a few new pieces of hardware. The SFF barebones kit boasts Intel’s 975X / ICH7-R chipset and supports up to 8GB of DDR2 RAM, Intel’s latest Core 2 Quad / Core 2 Extreme processors, NVIDIA’s 7950 GX2 / 8800 GTX and ATI’s Radeon X1900 graphics cards, and eight-channel HD-audio as well. Moreover, users will find expanded BIOS settings for CPU clock ratio and DDR2 voltage, a PCI-Express slot, room for a trio of 3.5-inch hard drives along with a single optical drive, gigabit Ethernet, a whopping seven USB 2.0 ports, FireWire, eSATA, and a 400-watt SilentX power supply. The 12.8- x 8.7- x 8.3-inch box also sports Shuttle’s I.C.E. heat-pipe cooling module and linear fan control to keep the heat (and noise) out of your machine, and while we still dig the idea of a portable LAN gaming rig at our disposal, we’d certainly think twice before dropping €419 ($554) for just the enclosure.
