Shuttle XPC

[Staff]

<p>Shuttle Inc - the world’s leading designer and manufacturer of small form factor (SFF) PCs and accessories - has added
the Shuttle PC50, a 300W power supply, to its range of Shuttle XPC Accessories.
<p>“PC components, in particular CPUs, graphics cards, and storage, are continuing to grow ever larger and more powerful. The Shuttle PC50 is the optimal solution for Shuttle and its customers to support the ever increasing demand for power placed upon Shuttle XPC systems by the latest technological advances,” explained James Chang, product director, Shuttle Inc.</p>
<p>Typically, Shuttle XPCs are fitted with a 200-250W power supply unit which is enough to satisfy the needs of most mainstream users. However, gamers and power-users who want to install high-end graphics cards and CPUs, need multiple hard disk and optical drives, or want to fine-tune the performance of their Shuttle XPC with overclocking, will find that the additional power supplied by the Shuttle PC50 improves the stability and expandability of these systems.</p>
<p>Also, the Shuttle PC50 has been designed to reflect the growing trend towards SATA hard disk drives over older IDE ones. It includes 2 SATA power connectors in addition to its 3 molex and 1 FDD connectors, allowing it to support combinations of hard disks, optical drives, floppy disks and graphics cards.</p>
<p>The Shuttle PC50 replaces the Shuttle XPCs existing power supply with a simple ‘1, 2,3, Easy Install’ procedure that can be performed by any end-user. All leads are designed to be the perfect lengths for the Shuttle XPC. The result is a tidy case interior, something that is difficult to achieve with generic components, but is important for optimal cooling and system noise reduction.</p>
<p>Shuttle’s SilentX technology has been incorporated into the Shuttle PC50, ensuring that the increase in power output does not mean an increase in noise too. During testing, noise output levels of the Shuttle PC50 were measure at less than 30dB.</p>
<p>Shuttle’s complete Shuttle XPC Accessories range comprises of over 20 items designed especially for the Shuttle XPC. Accessories give users the option to expand their Shuttle XPC systems with connectivity, portability, or capacity upgrades as their computing needs change, without the need to replace their entire system.</p>
<p>Shuttle PC50 will be available end of August. The price will be 83 Euro (withour VAT).<br>
