sn41g2 later models without video?

[thadon]

hey,
will there be a later model of the shuttle nforce 2 without the integrated video card?

Doubt it. Shuttle seems to want these SFF pc's pretty integrated, having an AGP slot for a addon video card is just a bonus they recently added with their last few SFF models.

I seriously doubt it. If you want some more specific info, check out Sudhian Forums... they have lots of SFF information.

As far as removing the video, its kind of pointless. It might add $20 to the total cost... (based on chipset prices).... and it would probably cost Shuttle more than that just to have two assembly lines. Not to mention, the SB51G (Intel solution), the SK41G (the cheaper AMD solution), and the SN41G2 (the nforce2 solution) all have AGP slots... and are capable of running even a R9700Pro.

BTW, I put together a SN41 with a friend of mine (for him) recently... with a XP2600+, 512MB of PC2700, a WD800JB, and a 9700 Pro... and it runs like a charm. Very "cute" system too... and VERY portable.

yea, i was only looking for a non-integrated video cause i was already planning on using an ati 9500.

how does the stability of the intel shuttle compare to the new sn41g2?
