Shuttle PC Barebone System SZ87R6

Update 4/15/2016: If you're getting frequent BSODs on this system in Windows 10, try disabling "C State Support" in the CPU settings of the BIOS- I was plagued with BSODs for the last 6 months (I don't know what I did to get that started, but I probably spent over 80 hours of my nights and weekends trying to resolve that problem). I've read that disabling that will prevent the CPU from being able to drop speed/voltage during idle, but that's not the case. My computer still drops down to 1.2GHz when it goes to idle. Absolutely nothing else appears to have changed besides the increased system stability. I'm now at 11 days without a BSOD, which feels like a miracle right now.My original review: Been running solid for me, so far. A huge step up from the Abit-based Core2Quad system I built 6 years ago, and in a case small enough to sit beside my monitor on my desktop.My setup includes a i7-4790K, 32GB DDR3-1600, GeForce GTX 760 4GB, Samsung 840EVO SSD, 1 TB Hitachi 7200RPM HDD, and a Pioneer BD-Burner. I love the number of ports- USB 3.0 and eSATA are nice additions. So far, the 500 watt PSU seems to be doing a great job. The Shuttle Ice cooler does well too- this rig idles in the upper 30s (C), and reaches a max of 65C when gaming (Watch Dogs and Arkham Origins are the only games I've tried so far). I haven't attempted to overclock, nor do I intend to. Mostly just using it for Adobe Creative Cloud apps, Maya, Blender, and Unity.I knocked a star off just because it's a little on the noisy side compared to my former mid-tower setup as well as a modded Shuttle SK41G I used to have as an HTPC. I've tried quieter fans to ameliorate the noise (tried a Noctua, a Scythe, a Thermaltake), but my temps shot up 15 degrees C. I'm learning to live with it as the compactness is worth the tradeoff to me.

I got mine for an awesome deal (around 250-300 i think)The SPDIF broke, Customer Support sent me a replacement header bracket which still didn't work. I think the SPDIF audio chip broke or something. I ended up getting an HDMI extractor because I didn't want to go through the hassle of disconnecting the motherboard, shipping it, and being without it for 2 weeks (it's our media PC, so no TV for 2 weeks kinda blows)

Nice case for price, a few cosmetic issues, POWER SUPPLY IS SMALL SLIM SIZE NOT NORMAL SIZE. Not sure if the 500w is going to be enough juice for my high end graphics card!

I like the design of this case but I was sent a unit which did not display anything at all. After several days I was able to get someone at Shuttle to respond to my support request. They said that the BIOS needed to be updated and to contact the RMA department. That took an additional day. Two days later a package arrived with a loose BIOS chip and no instructions. The chip appears to be a surface mount chip that would need to be soldered onto the logic board. Obviously I am not going to do that to a brand new computer which was DOA!

The motherboard has problems recognizing mSata. System would crash. Needs a bios fix.

DOA, will not run for more than an hour or so without hard lockup. After swapping out RAM, video card, etc., I finally moved all the components to a another motherboard and my CPU, RAM, video card all work great. Bad motherboard.

It hard lock at random intervals, Apparently is defective.

This is my third Shuttle system and I've always been very pleased with them. This one is no exception, however there are a few small niggles :- The build quality has gone down considering this is priced as a premium system - the layout on this one compared to the previous generation is much worse. It's mostly stupid things like the wires are not very bendy and are not very well routed, the connectors all feel very cheap, like they'd fall out, the 4 thick wires for the front panel go right through the middle of the box, don't bend and are in the way of just about everything. You feel like you're forcing it all together when you put stuff into it.- It advertises as being able to fit a full sized graphics card, however mine only just fits in, and the back of the circuit board on it is all of about 3mm away from the (metal) drive bay. If they touch it'd probably kill it. The power supply cable that connects to the top of italso has very little space for the cables.- Some kind of interaction between Windows 7 and the onboard / onchip graphics of the i7 processor stops the onboard HDMI from working. Not a problem for me but seems to be recognised on the intel website. Not directly related to this box specifically, but worth noting since it seems to be the Intel chipset drivers at fault.Having listed all that it might seem like I hate it, but actually I think it's a brilliant system, but I'm not sure I'd say shuttle are the best any more...

Lieferzeit von angekündigten drei Wochen auf drei Tage reduziert. Starke Leistung, Amazon.Das Gerät selbst ließ sich problemlos mit meinen vorhandenen Komponenten (I7, Nvidia 660, LG-BluRay-Brenner, 2x8GB-DDR3, Samsung Ssd 840 512Gbite als Systemplatte und 1TB Samsung 840 Evo aus einem Tower bestücken und funktioniert auf Anhieb.Habe das Shuttle-WLAN Modul dazu verbaut. Ist ein sehr leistungsfähiger, leiser, kompakter und elegant aussehender PC geworden. Setze ihn für CAE-Anwendungen unter WIN 7 mit zwei Full-HD Monitoren ein.

Llevo unos cuantos años comprando los barebones de Shuttle por que siempre me han dado un gran resultado. Valoro muchísimo que un equipo haga poco ruido, pero a la vez sea potente y ocupe poco espacio. Este Shuttle cumple con todo. En mi caso he tenido que hacer algo de bricomania por que, si bien entra una tarjeta gráfica como la R9 280X, toca hacer más grande el hueco de ventilación del lateral de la caja. Un poco de modding, vamos. Para tarjetas más normales no hay ningún problema. En mi caso lo he acompado con un SSD mSATA, y como no uso lector de DVD, no necesito poner la bandeja de aluminio a la que supuestamente iría fijado el SSD y el DVD. De esta forma entran las gráficas más potentes como la que he dicho, que además lo tengo con un Core i7 4790, y un disco duro externo de 2TB USB3.0 (100MB/s de lectura/escritura, suficiente) que llevo de un ordenador a otro con todos mis archivos.

Das Barebone selbst ist sehr gut, ich habe es haben wollen weil es das einzige war das i7-4970K unterstützt, also einen Prozessor mit höherer Leistung. Es gibt auch Barebones für die 6. Generation der Intelprozessoren, aber an die traue ich mich noch nicht, sind mir zu neu. Das Ding soll ein Server werden, der läuft und läuft und läuft.Habe leider das letzte Barebone erwischt und es ist wirklich "bar" gekommen, also die Schachtel alleine. Ohne Kabel, ohne DVD mit Treibern, nichts, nicht einmal das Netzkabel war da. Amazon war lieb und hat mir gleich ein Gutschein als Preisminderung geschenkt (wohlgemerkt, es war Sonntag abend als ich reklamiert habe und mich der Mitarbeiter gleich angerufen hat!). Aber, ein Stern fliegt doch.
