SFF on the AM2

It's been a while since we've last taken a look at Shuttle's SFF (Small Form Factor) XPC's offering. The XPC's still keeping up with the latest platforms, so shall we not look at Shuttle's XPC SN27P2 based on the rather new AMD AM2 platform? No benchmark numbers but a tonne of sweet pictures to share with you.

Smooth black, a safe color and design that's easy to digest

 

Adequate ventilation without spoiling the aesthetics

 

Dual 60mm fans at the back of the chasis for exhaust

 

Nicely laid out I/O panel as well

 

You may also have noticed that the power supply is rather short, almost as tiny as a unit can get. Gotta give Shuttle credit for that.

Specs speak of a 350w unit


Expansion Capability

4 DIMM Slots supporting up to 8GB of DDR2 400/533/667/800 Dual Channel Unbuffered Memory

 

2 Expansion slots for you: 1 x PCIE x16 slot & 1 x PCI slot.

 

4 Phase-power in a SFF is a neat trick

 

BIOS chip and various chipsets onboard such as Audio

 

Hard Disk Cage Accessories

 

A few others in the bundle
