Shuttle debuts a new 4.7-liter mini-PC.

Wow, I can't remember the last time I even heard anything about Shuttle. They basically created the mini gaming PC market and then... ?

I wish them luck with this, but it's not clear to me how well it's going to do on either cooling or noise.

@bit_user if they place a 14600T or a 14700T inside of it noise and heat will not be a problem.
With a 14600T and a 4060Ti will be a very capable gaming machine. The 14700T almost double the performance from a 13500T. Workstation at 35w...

Perhaps, depending on the CPU cooler. Those CPUs have a PL2 of 92W and 105W, respectively.

I was also concerned about the GPU, given that it supports dual-slot, but seems I missed this part:

"The end user must provide all other components while being mindful of some strict TDP restrictions, particularly the 65-watt maximum CPU TDP and 75-watt maximum GPU TDP."
​

That limit on GPU power will severely limit selection. I think the RTX 4060 Ti is usually a 160W card.

Even within those constraints (65W + 75W), I think this will not be a very quiet chassis.

Did someone buy the Shuttle name/IP?

This entire design, port functionality, etc. all feels very mid/late 2000's. Topping that off with 2 gen old chipsets and an extremely limited TDP design, it very much feels like a parts bin designed to dupe gullible buyers before they look too closely.

Who exactly is this for when you can get something smaller with more performance and eGPU support?

I'm pretty sure it's the same Shuttle from the 2000's, but they've fallen far behind the small-PC game.
The previous smallish PC they released had similar notes.
Same old quirky and outdated design.

As for the article lamenting no eGPU support...
PCIe and M.2 to oculink adapters are a thing that exist.
The mobo has both of those slots.
And it has removable PCI slot covers...
Or maybe just plug a GPU directly into the PCIe slot so it doesn't get bottle necked by the x4 oculink connection.

I checked the internal design and the CPU cooling could be okay, but it seems like things would be really bad with a video card. It would be right up against a perforated sheet metal panel and unlike the CPU cooler the opening undoubtedly wouldn't be the right size. Base video card limitation is definitely just slot power, but they have an optional expansion kit which allows for another power adapter for up to 225W (I assume this means it adds an 8 pin PCIe power plug). I don't even want to think about how loud this would end up being if even capable of running such a setup though. The only other ventilation opening in the case is behind the board the PCIe slots are on.

I agree. 20ish years ago (or more) it was them, and only them. This release is a bit late too...

lack of USB-C seems significant as well
