Computex 2005: Shuttle SLI

Computex 2005: Shuttle SLI






Well, here they are, the official specs for the long awaited Shuttle SN26P! You may wonder how Shuttle have managed to cram 2 SLi cards into such a small space and keep them cool and the answer lies in the custom heatpipe fitted to the cards’ custom heatsinks.



Running custom gear from the cards means that the SN26P comes ready fitted with twin Leadtek PX6800GT TDH 256 MiB DDR3 PCI-e graphics cards, so this baby is going to cost a bit more than the average barebones system you’d normally be able to pick up from Shuttle. I suppose you’d call it skinny rather than barebones?



The nForce 4 SLI board supports AMD Athlon 64/FX or X2 with 2000MT/s system bus with HyperTransport as well as the usual array of peripheral support for NVIDIA SATA/PATA RAID on 0,1 and JBOD. Audio is supplied by VIA Envy24PT giving 7.1 surround in hardware and there’s 10/100/1000 Mb/s Gigabit Ethernet support too.



As I said, the SN26P uses a custom heatpipe solution to keep the 6800s frosty and utilizes Active Airflow in conjunction with a Silent X 300W PSU. Sadly, with the system being so new, there was little data to be had as to the systems performance, so we’ll have to hang on to see what it can do, but with X2 support and the sheer raw power of twin 6800GTs, it’ll be rather good I reckon.
