Thanks,

its a socket A shuttle

I know... so whats the highest SOCKET A I can put in it?

I believe the current flagship AMD XP flagship (not the 64 bit chips) can be used i.e an XP3200+

Yup built a couple with XP3200's in, no probs at all.

But they are AMD and mine is Intel.... P4....

But they are AMD and mine is Intel.... P4....

Then you don't have the right model number. SN45G is a Socket A / AMD 32-bit CPU based shuttle using nVidia's nForce2 chipset (and with no on board video). I think you need to read the model number again.

Sure you got the model no right? The SN45G is deffinately AMD, check here

Thats why JAMAL was the first to reply that it was a socket A form factor

Tell me what shuttle you actually have and i'll change the thread title if you want so that the thread makes sense

I want to see how you fitted the P4 in it. That's some skilled ghetto modding.

Take a look here > http://www.shuttle.com/hq/product/product_b_intel.asp

Should help you pick out your model number.

[Lead_Head]

It looks the exact same of this one: http://www.shuttle.com/hq/product/ba...ult.asp?B_id=8

However, mines black... with a custom real carbon fibre front...

If you could change the title and clean the thread up - cheers

You probably still need to look at the model number on the motherboard. There are a lot of shuttles that look similar and if it's been customised you really need to double check what you've got to find out what it officially supports. Also - what PSU is in there? Will also make a difference to how fast a CPU you can / will want to put in there (i.e. if it's not the 250W Silent X then it *MIGHT* struggle to power a high end CPU or just make a *LOT* of noise and create a lot of heat in the process). Also - what do you want the shuttle for? Do you really need something high speed?

Not much point in me sorting out the thread until i know the correct model number. no use saying it looks like an SB51G but its a different colour with a different front, it could be another model, or just a Painted SB51G?
