Shuttle ST20G5 review

Get the hell outa here. I have my time totally filled with other mobos, watching animes and american TV, reading, sleeping, going to gigs and general bumming around thank-you-very-much. :O

edit: forgot "arguing with Roto on MSN", which takes H-O-U-R-S

 

Hehehe...See, there's time to fill! You're on MSN?

@bigz,
Thanks! I suppose that makes sense, just a pretty darn low limit to OC (Then again, it is a shuttle!).

 

I have my ST20G5 at 220Mhz FSB rock solid stable, Prime95 for 24 hours included. (2.8Ghz CPU core, FX55 90nm...my board is a clock locked prerelease)
8x HTT setting. I am using 533Mhz DDR in the first place, so that helps.
My benchmarks using a Radeon x850 XT PE 512MB:
3DMark05: 6188 3DMarks CPU Score 5780 CPUMarks
3DMark03: 12908 3DMarks CPU Score 1304 CPUMarks

 

Been playing around my ST20G5 today. Dual screening with pci-e gfx + onboard doesn't work as i was hoping it would. Maybe its a windows problem, but i cant game on one monitor and watch a movie on the other screen, which is what i was hoping to be able to do. That and slicing my thumb open on one of the pci slot covers makes me

edit: game runs fine full screen on my primary display, but some of the windows desktop pokes over onto the second display, which messes up the movie playback..

 

that's normal for windows, unfortunately

 

Cant wait to get my next paycheck so I can grab one of these. Got a Athlon64 4000+ San Deigo en route to stick in it too

 

Does this shuttle accept ALL 939 CPU's then inc winchester etc? Thinking of taking the plunge to SFF myself.

 

inc winchester? for sure.

 

Cheers for clearing that up for me
