Awesome case

SILVERSTONE Black Aluminum front panel, 0.8 mm SECC body Lascala Series LC16B-M ATX Media Center / HTPC Case

Pros: This is a great case with separate window for air intake for CPU, Hard drives and PSU. Worth the price. Remote works with Imon software which is good. Controls multiple applications in window XP with some amount of settings.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Orientation of mother board and PSU is other way around in this case when compared with average tower case. Most of the P4 power cable will not reach the connecter on the motherboard if connector on the mother board is next to CPU. Get a P4 extender if you can find one or be prepared to cut some wires to increase the length.

Not so good

Spire SP-SoundPad01 SP-SOUNDPAD Acoustic Absorption Mat

Pros: This product may reduce the noise of rattling case.

Cons: Not much use with other noise like fans and HDD and PSU. It is difficult to apply.

Overall Review: Buy two if you plan to apply all over your ATX case. The material will not come off once applied it will tear. The Glue is very tough to remove even with solvents.

Update to Vista 64 bit issue

Pros: Update to my last comment. The issue was not related to video driver or any other hardware. It was to do with spydoctor from Google pack on vista 64 bit.

Cons: None - very happy to purchase this

Great Construction

Pros: Looks, VFD, Compact, low noise and really good construction. This is second Shuttle I have build for home use. Things are arranged so well that I took some time to admire the internal construction. CPU heat sink is connected to the system fan a brilliant idea to reduce noise.

Cons: Has some difficulty aligning DVD Drive with the door button. Other than that vista 64 screen savers, switch user and logoff seem to kill the signal to monitor .... no option but to restart the machine. Monitor connected to the HDMI. I do not believe it is Shuttle issue but some thing to do with video driver and vista 64 … still working on that issue.

Overall Review: Build 1 TB Samsung HDD Pioneer DVD burnner Intel 9550S 65W Quard Core Vista 64 Home Premium
