7 in Shuttle SX58H7

i want Prima serise

Awesome!
This answers my question then, my next upgrade from my 25p.

Question though -
4 Dimms for DDR3, why 4? I though i7 was triple channel so 3/6 dimms?

6 is too many to cram into a Shuttle, and 4 is better than 3 if you need more memory rather than slightly better bandwidth.

If you want triple channel just fill 3 DIMM slots.

just found http://www.intel.com/Consumer/Shop/core_i7.htm where you can by the SX58H7 with a i7-920 for just 2200$.

But not for me just got my SX48P2 Deluxe

I’m pretty upset Shuttle dropped Firewire all together.  It is nowhere to be found in this XPC and SX48P2-Deluxe.  It looks like I’m going to get SX48P2-E (the last Firewire offering).

500 W supply in this dimensions !
( with 5 cm fan ??  like sg45h7 )

for when ?

unfortunately, external audio boxes are still using firewire.  so all of my pre-existing m-audio products would not work with upcoming shuttle models.  i’m still not sure why they deprecated the feature; most of the intel i7 mobos that just came out has firewire by default.

Thanks for pointing that out, I would have missed it… if that 500W is as efficient as other Shuttle PSUs, I wonder what it couldn’t handle that could fit in that box…

True, m-audio aren’t all that great anyway. Though you could just get a Firewire card

i think m-audio is great, but to each his own.  unfortunately a reliable pci-e firewire card costs $80+.  seems a bit too much for me.  i may just end up buying an m-audio usb solution…

it seems tha shuttle keeps holding on to this thing with several small fans instead of some big ones. there is room for 14cm on-top or 12cm in the back, but il guess we instead will have 3 smapp wasps in the rear.

i7, is not a revolution, think we need to wait for the 32nm cpus to come.

This would interest me as I am looking to upgrade but it falls short. The continued reliance on small noisy fans is off putting. I went to great effort to make my current Shuttle bearable, I won’t be doing that again, I would rather choose a barebones or components that I know will be quiet rather than alter an overpriced and frankly flawed design. I notice there are no pictures yet of the rear of the Shuttle.

indeed , no pictures of back .
But I suppose it is similiar with the other H7 ‘s .
1 x 92 mm fan for Ice-cooler and 1 x 5 cm for psu .
130 W from the i7 is no problem for the Ice-cooler .

I dream Shuttle come with a new range of powersupplies , more powerfull and fanless .

Today my SG33G5 is near total silent .

Shuttle drive me to the H7 because I want raid , I don’t need 500 W psu .

Does it have RAID?

I do not see it on the Shuttle site?
