Shuttle PC - What kind of GPUs does it accept?

Slots: 1x PCI-Express v2.0 slot - Supports Dual-slot (double-width) graphics cards

You will be able to use any PCI-E dual slot card.

It might not support really long ones though.
 
If you want to play it safe, you can find Shuttle's official support list here.

Plenty of other useful information on there also.

Have fun! :)

Edit: You just beat me to it, Mr-White! ;)
 
AH :D


Stop posting competitor links

That's the one I was looking at.

do you think that with an i7 950 and a decent GPU that the 500w will be able to cope?
 
yea paying for the thing with a 300w PSU only to buy a new one is a waste of money.

Just build one completely from scratch.
 
I can see that you (the OP) are quite new here, but links to competitor's sites are not allowed under Forum rules.

A Moderator will probably soon pick it up anyway, but it's best if you can get in first!

Welcome to the Forum, by the way! :)
 
There is another forum for shuttle owner that is not affiliated to shuttle direct afaik. (google it I cant link it here)

But tbh the PSU bundled with those used to be more reliable and closer to the advertized power output. Just as an example I still have an old one running a AMD64 3000 w/ a x1650 and the PSU is marketed at 240W. Never had a problem running this baby.

But then again, you might just want to take the time to double check all the specs for the machine before making a decision.

HTH

The SFFTECH forums have a dedicated section for Shuttle SFF PCs.

The SX58J3 can run a Core i7 980X fine and even cards such as an HD5870 or a GTX580.

There is a thread on the forum which will give you an indication of what hardware you can expect to run off the 300W and 500W PSUs.
