Shuttle XG41 Barebone Black (S775)

Mini-PCs in cube format are not compact enough for you? In addition, you also want flexibility in the choice of the processor? Shuttle fills exactly this gap by introducing the XG41. Choose the processor model that is right for you from the wide product range of Intel Core 2 processors with socket 775 (up to 65 W TDP). The XG41 is based on the proven Intel G41 Express Chipsatz with versatile GMA X4500 graphics engine. Thanks to HDMI- and DVI-outputs two monitors can be run at the same time using these digital connectors. Digital audio signals can also be transferred via the optical S/PDIF connector as well as with HDMI. A mini PCIe slot offers additional expansion options. For special applications there are two serial interfaces at the back of the unit. A generous, external fanless 90W power supply and the intelligent fan control ensure optimum reliability.

  
6-channel audio
With the inbuilt sound card you can connect up to six speakers. Get your own personal surround-sound experience at home.
       
Stylish exterior and high-speed interior
This attractive Mini-PC offers multi-core CPU power, enabled by Intel's best-ever processors. Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad work with two or four CPU cores and are often able to work at double or quadruple the speed of conventional processors.
       
Communication in the fast lane
The integrated gigabit LAN chipset opens up completely new possibilities for communication with no restriction on the speed of data transfer. Say goodbye to information bottlenecks, whether in the company network or for home Internet access.
       
Generous supply of USB ports
You can never have enough of those versatile USB ports. This Shuttle Mini-PC offers 6 ports, with further ports for internal expansions located on the mainboard.
       
High-quality steel, perfectly finished
Modern production methods enable the creation of perfectly finished steel. This model is in no way inferior to its aluminium brothers and sisters in terms of size and looks. Steel is a cost-effective alternative material for the construction of Mini-PCs, which means you benefit from a more attractive price.
       
Digital monitor output
Large TFT monitors work with extremely high resolutions. Digital technology is essential for displaying video signals in excellent quality and with no loss of performance. This Mini-PC offers a high-quality DVI monitor output.
       
Anti-theft protection
The Kensington Lock forms part of the anti-theft system. As with many other Notebooks, this Mini-PC can also be safely locked, ensuring long-term enjoyment from your Shuttle product.
       
Intelligent fan control
The Smart Fan system promises low operating noise with its large, slowly rotating fans, which generate a very large airflow and have automatic variable speed control.
       
Now with improved airflow
The latest Mini-PCs feature more air intake points to improve the inflow of cool air. The size and position of these intake points on the chassis cover and underside have been chosen to allow optimal cooling of all critical components, resulting in increased stability and longer lifespan.
       
Pre-assembled cabling saves time
The most important power and data cables are already routed and just have to inserted into the relevant components. This saves valuable time when setting up the system.
       
Full support for Windows 7
Shuttle provides all the necessary drivers to ensure the smooth installation of Windows 7, and the enhanced 3D “Aero” interface runs without problem thanks to the integrated state-of-the-art graphics processor.
