2004-12-10 - WCM: "Highlight Award" for the Shuttle XPC System Solution P 8100G
 Shuttle, the famous manufacturer of SFF-PCs, dominates the market with its various mini barebones. Shuttle has now taken the next logical step and offers fully-configured systems...
"The configuration of the Shuttle XPC System Solution is excellent and comes with a clever cooling system. The system is based on the i915G chipset, the system is equipped with a fast but hot 3,4 GHz Pentium 4 processor. Yet even running at full load the XPC System Solution keeps its cool and remains comfortably quiet. As the graphics solution Shuttle included nothing less than an ATI Radeon X800XT in the PCI Express Slot. For sound Shuttle used Intel's 7.1 sound solution that (…) usually does a good job. Performance leaves no door open to criticism. With its graphics card 3D gaming performance is excellent and neither Doom3 nor Far Cry caused problems. The (…) CPU and opulent memory make the P 8100G a very good multimedia PC that can also be used for video editing, while leaving no wishes unfulfilled. "In conclusion, we strongly recommend the P 8100G!"
Positive:
+ fast
