Shuttle has added another barebone PC to their range with the launch of the Shuttle XG41, which is designed to be much smaller than Shuttle’s other PCs but still offer the same amount of computing power.
The Shuttle XG41 measures 24.2 cm by 20 cm by 7.3 cm, and it comes with HDMI, DVI-I ports, plus six USB 2.0 ports, 2x COM (RS-232 + RS-232/422/485), plus two Gigabit network interfaces, S/PDIF and audio ports on the back and front.
The XG41 features a mainboard with 1 x Mini-PCIe and 3x SATA 3 Gbit/s and the case can take up to three 2.5 inch HDDs, and it is compatible with Intel LGA775 Core 2 Duo processors.
Memory and Storage Capabilities
There are also two memory slots which can take up to a total of 8GB of RAM, providing ample memory for most computing tasks. This makes the Shuttle XG41 a versatile option for users who need a compact yet powerful machine. The ability to install up to three 2.5 inch HDDs means that users can have significant storage space, which is ideal for both personal and professional use. Whether you need to store large files, run multiple applications, or manage extensive databases, the Shuttle XG41 has you covered.
Cooling and Power Efficiency
The Shuttle XG41 is equipped with a 90w fanless power supply, which ensures that the system runs quietly and efficiently. This is particularly beneficial for environments where noise levels need to be kept to a minimum, such as in offices or home studios. Additionally, the heatpipe with dual fans provides effective cooling, ensuring that the system remains stable even under heavy workloads. This advanced cooling solution helps to prolong the lifespan of the components and maintain optimal performance.
The compact design of the Shuttle XG41 does not compromise on connectivity options. With HDMI and DVI-I ports, users can easily connect multiple displays, making it an excellent choice for multi-monitor setups. The six USB 2.0 ports provide ample connectivity for peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and external storage devices. The inclusion of two Gigabit network interfaces ensures fast and reliable internet connectivity, which is essential for both work and entertainment purposes.
The Shuttle XG41 also features S/PDIF and audio ports on both the back and front, making it easy to connect audio devices and enjoy high-quality sound. This is particularly useful for users who require excellent audio performance for tasks such as video editing, music production, or gaming.
