Pinkgirl36 is looking to get one, thay look cool, are tiny, and she likes it.

I just wanna know if any one has used them, she will only me doing "normal" stuff so no need for all the bells and whistles.

xsiled2 · 04-14-2002, 07:02 PM

i remember that revil had one, he had an issue with it but i cant recall what is was, they have p4 ones now btw, they arnt bad

.

Wizard · 04-14-2002, 07:05 PM

I have one... want to make a deal?

I might be willing to part with it, if you buy it I'll include a VIA C3 866MHz CPU with it...

hehe

PM me or Email me

Hiro · 04-14-2002, 07:06 PM

nice little machine. for the basic stuff pinky would be using it for....it will work fine.

im just curious to know if its got TV-OUT, or if those TV-Out jacks/connectors are fully functional. im looking to hook the box to the TV (thats why i call it TV box).

also, it doesnt say if the graphics memory SHARE with the MAIN memory (it probably does...).

but looking around shuttle's website, they have some small form factor motherboards that i can use instead. problem now is looking for a case small enough (i really want to use my old TNT card because it has a good TV-OUT with it, plus i can hook more than 1 hard drive in it).

by the way, how much is the SV25?

I'm not sure on this, but I think anandtech might have done a little thing about the shuttle mobo and cases that fit it, so that might be a place to find a good case.

Well, I went to anandtech and they did do and article on the SV24, an older model and the case is sold by Shuttle, too, as part of a barebones system. So you would have to find someone that sells the SV24/25 barebones system, usually around 250, I think.

yeah I saw that on their site, they have an AMD one as well. But she likes this one only because of cost, the P4 system is a little more than she wants to spend

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 04-14-2002, 08:25 PM

yeah the cooler's that this can hold is limited, but with a Celeron 1.0 I don't think heat is going to be a problem. She really likes the size of this PC, "it is cute"

she says she wan't to buy a pre-built ( Dell/HP ) but I won't let her, this barebone is as close to pre-built I said she could go....

she is thinking about it and really thinks she is going to go with this with

8-16x DVD
60gig HD ( on sale this week 7200rpm Maxtor for around $80 from OfficeDepot )
and then a wireless keyboard/mouse larter
and 1gig o ram

sho.gun · 04-15-2002, 12:01 PM

If you worry about heat, buy W|zard's, get the VIA chip, that thing runs like a freezer. I'm planning on making an mp3 box for my car, based on the shuttle SV24, i might just buy the barebones and use a VIA c3.

well I am not thinking that it should get to hot...

now what is the Dif. between the SV24 & SV25???...

sho.gun · 04-15-2002, 12:09 PM

The SV25 uses a newer chipset, called the VIA VT8606T. The old SV24 usesthe VIA VT8604.

you can compare em here:

http://www.shuttleonline.com/sv24.htm

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 04-15-2002, 12:12 PM

yeah I have seen their site, the only thing I did see dif. was the chipset....

Wizard · 04-15-2002, 12:19 PM

SV25 supports Tualatin
SV24 doesn't

That's the only differences

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 04-15-2002, 12:27 PM

ok... what is "Tualatin"

Wizard · 04-15-2002, 12:32 PM

Tualatin is the new incantation of the P3. Just like with Athlon there is Thunderbird, Thoroughbred, Palomino. P3 had Coppermine, Tualatin... and forgot the other one.

Tualatin CPUs are not backward compatible with other P3s so hence the updated chipset.

Tualatin CPUs are sold up to 1.4GHz and are equal to Thunderbird 1.4 in performance. Actually I have seen Tualatin beat Thunderbird several times.

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 04-15-2002, 12:37 PM

ahhh ok, that is what I though, I just wasn't sure....

I just did a little look Celeron 1.3 for under $90

I think I will recomend this chip for her

Wizard · 04-15-2002, 12:43 PM

For that CPU use the SV25

I just wanna make sure it works well

Quote:

Memory
DIMM x 2
Up to 512MB of 168-pin PC100 /PC133 SDRAM

but looks like the SV25 can only hold 512, so I will have he max it out

I have an SV24. Mine was having problems figuring out how fast the processor really is. I think that is because I have an engineering sample in it. all the retail chips i put in worked fine.

oh well

I think I should have waited 1 month until the sv25 came out.

The one thing I do not like about it is that the rear case fan is kinda noisy. but I suppose it's needed since it's the only fan circulating air. (i don't think the 40mm powersupply fan counts...)

Also, I don't know how well it works with windows. I run linux on it.

that's what I wan'ted to get one for, but Pink likes it, so I will let her try it, and well hey if it don't work then I guess I will get to play in Linux with it

<pssst what did we learn about bandwidth leeching a few days back?>

Sorry to be a jackass and mention it again. BTW- I have a good friend that works in Shuttle and he says its fine but in the future lets reduce leeching

well only one pic is from them, the otheres are from newegg, but it is advertisement for them

and can he hook us up with a discount???...

bugaboo · 04-16-2002, 03:03 PM

looks cool and quite samll.. how much is one of these suckers?

$239 from newegg.com

04-18-2002, 09:53 PM

looks like a nice little box especially for almost everyone who keeps buggin me to build them a computer. what needs to be added? looks to me like it needs a cpu, ram, hd, fd, cd/dvd drive and possibly a modem. can anyone think of something that im forgetting? i have a friend who really wants a new computer and this will be perfect since we already have most of the stuff.

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 04-18-2002, 10:38 PM

that's all you need to add to it

Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse of course

~~DoPeY5007~~ · 05-27-2002, 10:19 PM

ok, well this is what she desided to get, she has now purchased a Maxtor 80gig 5400 and a 16x DVD rom

Showtime · 05-28-2002, 10:14 AM

why go thru all this hassle?
