Hello everyone. I recently built a barton based system with a Shuttle MN31/N motherboard, but abondoned the PC due to the dreaded buzzing sound that was emitted by the green life savers on the board. I also didn't like the fact that my system was almost as big as a regular mid-tower. So, in order to salvage my system by getting a barebones system. My problem is that I can't decide whether to go with the 200N or SN41G2. Here are the things I like about the Biostar iDEQ 200N:
Supposedly quiet, improvements over shuttle's designs, supports Linux through StudioFun!, and the motherboard has more options for under/overclocking.
Here's what I like about the SN41G2:
Heatpipe technology, popular, and some other things I cannot think of right at the moment.
The only thing I am afraid of with the Shuttle SN41G2 is that I'll have the same buzzing motherboard problem, as discussed on these forums. These products are very similar to one another and so are their current prices. I just can't decide what I'd like and needed input from some people, especially Biostar iDEQ 200N users, about their experiences. Thank you for your time!
I really need quick replies too because I plan on purchasing this tomorrow!
