Next Generation Performance
The XPC SB95P V2 with 925XE Northbridge sits at the top of the XPC performance ladder for Intel compatible models. With features including Pentium4 processors, dual-channel DDR2 533MHz memory and high-bandwidth PCI-Express graphics cards, this model delivers the power gamers and enthusiasts clamor for. Further, with up to three hard drives, 2GB of DDR2 memory, high-definition audio and cutting-edge Matrix RAID Storage Technology, you get more features than systems costing twice as much.
The DDR2 Advantage:
DDR2 is the next-generation evolution of DDR memory technology. DDR2 memory features faster speeds, higher data bandwidths, lower power consumption and enhanced thermal performance.
Key DDR2 features:
1.8 Volts operation, lower power consumption.
"On-Die memory Termination" prevents reflected signal transmission errors.
Operational enhancements to increase memory performance, efficiency and timing margins.
400MHZ and 533MHz modules up to 1GB per module.
Intel Matrix Storage Technology
The innovation continues with the introduction of Intel Matrix RAID Technology, which combines the benefits of RAID 0 performance and RAID 1 protection on two hard drives. For example, games and video editing benefit from improved performance, while valuable personal photos and financial records can be better protected from a drive failure.
High Definition Audio
Delivering significant improvements over previous generation integrated audio and sound cards. 7.1- channel audio is capable of delivering the support and sound quality for up to eight channels at 192 kHz/24 - bit quality,while the AC'97 specification can only support six channels at 48 kHz/20-bit. In addition, Intel HD Audio is architected to prevent the occasional glitches or pops that other audio solutions can have by providing dedicated system bandwidth for critical audio functions.
PCI Express x16 Interface
PCI Express x16 graphics delivers up to 4 GB/s per direction for up to 3.5 times more bandwidth than AGP8X. PCI Express x1 I/O offers 500 MB/s concurrently, up to 3.5 times more bandwidth than PCI at 133 MB/s.
Silent X Technology
Integrated Silent X cooling and noise reduction technologies deliver optimized cooling to deliver exceptional stability, comfort and reliability. Optimized cooling features, smart fan programming and best of class airflow means whether at home on the desk or in the living room, the XPC is "Super Quiet, Super Cool."
The Silent X concept is embodied in a number of discreet Shuttle technologies, including; A Silent X PSU, Integrated Cooling Engine (ICE); and intelligently-engineered airflow mechanics.
Integrated Cooling Engine (ICE) Module
Redesigned for the P-chassis, the Integrated Cooling Engine (ICE) in this model is based on the same concept that made the early XPCs a consumer success. The ICE heat-pipe module uses convection cooling to transfer heat away from the processor. Copper tubing, coated in nickel and filled with distilled water provides the conduit through which heat passes to a radiator. A quiet, speed controlled 80mm ducted fan covers the radiator, providing both processor cooling and case exhaust.
Improving on the standard ICE module that ships with all G-series XPCs, the P-series ICE module uses two fans in push-pull to more efficiently pass cool air over the ICE radiators fins. This makes it possible to deliver up to 50CFM. Further both fans are PWM spec which means linear control of the fan speed and controllable in BIOS.
350 Watt Power Supply
First seen in the SB81P, this 350 Watt PSU delivers 100 Watts more than previous PSUs whilst maintaining whisper quiet operation. Tested in our acoustic lab from a distance of 50cm to create an environment similar to actual usage (many competitors take measurements at 1M), the PSU operates at just 27dB.
Airflow
The XPC SB95P V2 introduces a revolutionary new approach to airflow design. Three independent cooling zones - CPU, HDD and Case - ensure that cool air is delivered to critical components.
The P-chassis ensures that cool air is delivered to critical components. From above, the airflow in the P-chassis shows several different intake points designed to keep cool air continually flowing over critical components as opposed to recalculating warm stale air.
Finally, the underside of the P-chassis has more air intake points designed to keep the motherboard cool and stable. The underside edge is lined with intake points. Other intake points are also located on the underside of the machine to improve motherboard cooling.
Smart Fan
Smart Fan intelligently monitors and controls the cooling fans. Smart Fan incorporates linear control metrics to provide optimal cooling. Under normal conditions, Smart Fan keeps the fan speed low, minimizing acoustic noise. When the load increases, Smart Fan increases the fan speed to provide optimal cooling. Better still, Shuttles Smart Fan lets you choose the desired temperature and fan speed to suite your ergonomic needs.
P Chassis
The XPC SB95P V2 is housed in the new P chassis, a member of Shuttle?s fifth generation XPC chassis. The P makes a number of improvements over the earlier G and G2 series chassis, including:
Stealth drive doors
P's clean facia is thanks to three well-integrated stealth bay covers. The optical drive, floppy drive and front media ports can all be hidden from view when not in use - providing superior style and visual appeal.
Internal design innovation
Redesigning the internal structure, the P-chassis has room for three 3.5" drives and one 5.25" drive. The internal rack fits one 3.5" and one 5.25" drive with the other bays located in the top portion of the chassis. The rack 3.5" bay can be used to install a FDD or a legacy HDD if desired, making the P-chassis incredible expandable and flexible.
Toolless drive installation
The Pice de Rsistance of the P-chassis are the drive mounting brackets. New to the XPC, these brackets make installing drives a breeze. Further, installation of a HDD in the rack mount requires no brackets whatsoever; just drop the HDD in the rack (four-pins in the bottom of the rack and compression clips hold the drive securely in place). Refer to the manual for instructions on using these mounting brackets.
Integrated cable management
Starting with the SN85G4 (production version), all new XPC's will ship with integrated cable management to ease installation. IDE cables will be pre-installed, and power leads will be wrapped and clipped to the chassis. The P goes one step further and integrates two serial ATA cables for the top HDDs.
8-in-1 Card Reader
A standard feature in the P-chassis, this card reader features support for 8 different memory formats. Operates at 480Mb/s (USB 2.0). Supports; Compact Flash I (CF I), Compact Flash II (CF II), IBM Microdrive (MD), Smart Media Card (SM/SMC), Secure Digital card (SD), Multi Media Card (MMC), Memory Stick (MS), Memory Stick Pro (MSP).
