Looks interesting. Could pop a C2D into the barebones:

11.0" x 7.5" x 6.7"

The 100W PSU might be a problem though.

 

[ICE_9]

On a C2D, probably not. but a quad would create quite an issue. That article stated they have a silent Ps too that gets it up to 220W I believe.

I guess these take the mini ITX form factor boards?

 

[ICE_9]

Not sure. Says "Shuttle Form Factor" on their site.

I'll fold naked long before I give up OC options

 

[ICE_9]

Says it supports 1333 FSB even though its only through OC. I guess you can OC it. I wonder what board they are using.

BSEL mod or just pop in an E8400 and call it a day.

 

[ICE_9]

It is a 945G chipset. It may not work with an E8400. The chipset is two generations behind the current stuff.

Tom's Hardware should have put a Quad in there and see what would happen. I guess that's why they aren't [H]ard.

Yes, the 945G Chipset is the down-er , but they would still make some decent boxen.
Kinda of a build it and forget it setup. Good for ppl with limited space.
Also great systems for HTPC's.

I have a feeling they will have some with the P31 and X38 series soon.
