Customer Rating: Summary: Great price on a great Shuttle! Comment: Great pc for the money- I looked at Shuttles last year, and for dual-core compatibility (AMD or Intel) they were all $350+. Now it's easy to build a quad-core Shuttle with 4g ram, dvd-rw, wireless, and a good hard drive for around $750!!! And still be able to upgrade to a 45nm processor later this year!!!
I was skeptical of the cooling system, but even oc'd to 2.7ghz all 4 cores stay between 34-44 degrees Celsius during fairly heavy use. And it's QUIET!!! The only noise is from the hard drive...
