2005-03-07 - PC Perf: "Able to put more than one competitor to shame."

The French IT-magazine PC Perf tested the Shuttle XPC Barebone SB86i in its latest issue and found much to like in the first ever SFF PC based on the Intel BTX standard: "Sober and elegant... the design shines by its simplicity." The Shuttle XPC Barebone SB86i also offers a convenient upgrade path in addition to its on-board video thanks to its PCI-Express slot.

This latest barebone offers a "great number of qualities" and is "very user-friendly thanks to its clever internal organization, [and] is easy to put together."
