Review: Shuttle SN68PTG6 Deluxe bare-bones PC

Not the most powerful but certainly beautiful

The SN68PTG6 Deluxe barebones PC has a similar layout to the Intel-based SG33G5M.

It maintains the same heatpipe and power supply arrangement to keep the system cool and quiet. There’s no remote control, but you do get an 802.11g Wifi adapter fitted internally.

It’s based on the AMD-compatible Nforce 630a chipset, which includes integrated Geforce 7050PV graphics with HDMI and VGA outputs, plus a dongle for DVI connectivity.

There are all the audio and networking ports you could hope for, as well as two Firewire and six USB ports. It’s an impressive system, but it lacks quad-core support at present.
