SN67H7 - i sourced one!

_Jimlad_ · 24 Jul 2011 at 10:39

for some reason the SN67H7 never made these shores and even though it came out at the same time as the SN67H3 and is identical apart from the front i was despite to get one, being a bit ocd about how they look

its coming from Germany and i paid £314 which is a little OTT, but its from a well known e-tailor and i have a little protection, could have sourced it a little cheaper, but safety first!

apparently for those interested it should be readily available in the UK from next month around the £275 mark, about £35 more than the SN67H3.

----------

Anyways i have 8gb crucial memory, a SSD, GTX 460 already for it, so just need the CPU. im coming from the AMD in my sig. so i guess an I7 will be a big improvement? not sure if to get the i5 or the i7, what do people think?

I'd say just get the cheaper i5, as for most things the performance is around the same, and it also gives you more money to spend on other thigs

yeah just gonna have a little look into cpu reviews

would love to see a proper little write up of your thoughts

I want a shuttle so bad now, just trying to go smaller and smaller with my pc but still get a little workhorse for uni. My q08 is just too big for me

also, sh67h7?

will do mate, it could take 14 days to arrive from germany, but this model should be around in the UK in August.

Hi everyone this is my first post though been lurking on these forums for years.
Seen the SN67H7 from a UK online store which ive never heard of before selling it for £295.02 including postage delivery by 11 august have 21 in stock funny nobody else in UK seems to have them an you can only purchase from them with a business account doh.
Will wait till I can get from a good retailer for around £270 or less I hope.

_Jimlad_ · 5 Aug 2011 at 21:21

I paid 314 pounds imported from Germany via big online UK retailer. I know it will be cheaper when it arrives in the UK. But wanted now. In Poland at the min but will do a write up next week

Great Jimlad will look forward to your review an plenty of pics ok

not really in a rush to buy the SN67H7 can wait 2 months if i had too want to see if they are planning to sell SN67H7 with a 500 watt psu that would be perfect if price was not to high.
Will get i5 2500 cpu, 2x4 gig ram not sure what gpu to get might go for GTX 460 1gb don't want the shuttle running to hot an noisy.
Already have ati 5850 in another system will try that card out on SN67H7 first have all the other parts i need intel 160 gig ssd an LG blu ray writer will be gaming only an res 1920x1200 on medium settings.

i do see it as that expensive, ok i paid a premium for that model, due to be imported but in gernal you would be looking at around £260 in the uk,

you get a well built metal case
motherboard
psu
cooling system

Great pics Jimlad the H7 looks so much better than the boring old looks on the H3.
The SN67H7 is the only shuttle to get really anybody seen it for sale/price in the UK yet.
Just bought myself an old shuttle SD31P with cpu/ram/win xp for £53 second hand need it to run some xp only software i have its almost as good as your SN67H7

Like the video bit dark turn the lights on next time or get a torch lol how noisy is it running that 460 under load ?

_Jimlad_ · 14 Aug 2011 at 19:00

yeah used my phone for the vid, it was just for my mate in Portugal who is a big shuttle fan, but thought i would add it on here as well.

very pleased with it and its very stable under gaming and stress tests.

sarge78 · 16 Aug 2011 at 15:56

_Jimlad_ · 16 Aug 2011 at 16:25

cheers mate, im very pleased, you know how it can be buying lots of bits from different places, but it all went together and works well, stressed it and tested and no freezes or crashes. quiet enough as well
