Shuttle XH61 3-Litre Barebone Supports Intel LGA 1155 CPUs




Shuttle has just announced that the company has updated its X-series barebone lineup with a new model, dubbed the XH61, which was designed to be compatible with Intel processors using the LGA 1155 socket.

The smallish 3-liter case of the XH61 features an all-black design, but despite its compact size it does have enough room for quite a bit of hardware.

This includes support for an optical Slimline drive and a 2.5-inch hard disk or SSD as well as a pair of DDR3 DIMM sockets, for installing as much as 16GB of system memory. Four SATA 3Gbps ports also make their appearance on the XH61’s specs list.

Outside of the Gigabit Ethernet interface, the back of the unit houses four USB 2.0 ports, two PS/2 ports, D-Sub and HDMI video outputs as well as 5.1-channel audio (7.1 channel internally).

Another two USB 2.0 ports and a series of 3.5mm audio jacks are found in the front of the case behind a drop-down panel.

A heatpipe cooling system paired together with two lateral fans is used for chilling Intel‘s LGA 1155 processors with TDPs up to 65W while power is provided by a fanless 90 W power brick.

"With the XH61, we can now fit second-generation Intel Core processors in our smallest and fastest PCs", states Tom Seiffert, Head of Marketing & PR at Shuttle Computer Handels GmbH. 

"The practical format of the XH61 and its predecessor, the XG41, has proven its worth and will continue to be developed in future. 

“3-litre PCs represent a good compromise between space requirements and computing performance," concluded the company’s rep.

Shuttle has set the recommended price of the XH61 LGA 1155 barebone at EUR 146 (ex VAT), which translates into about $185 US.
