Okay...so if all goes ideally this will be my comp soon enough...
Weeeee!
My only problems rest in the fact that:
a) I'm not sure that the 200W PSU in the Shuttle can handle the load of a fast graphics card, 1GB of RAM, a (hopefully overclocked) 2.4 GHz P4, 2 hard drives, and other normal system stuff. Anybody know if this even sounds feasible?
b) I've heard that the new Shuttles are loud...does anyone have experience with this enough to tell me how much it would bother someone with 5 fans currently, the loudest being a Sunon 80 mm (about 40 dB), the others being the Adda case fans that ship with Lian Li cases? Is the fan in the Shuttle XPCs replaceable?
c) Is there an expected update that will make the 865 chipsets less flaky about memory?
Also, does anyone have any suggestions for the system? I know the 9500 Pros are probably gone forever...call me a wishful thinker. Feel free to replace it with a 9600 in your mind.![]()
