Product Specification
Shuttle XPC Barebone SX38P2 Pro –Special Product Features
Shuttle XPC Prima Series offering extreme performance
Shuttle has introduced the XPC Prima series, with its revolutionary high
performance models, for professional and performance demanding
applications whether they be at work, everyday or for high-tech
gaming.
Supports 1333 MHz FSB and new upcoming 45nm processors
This Shuttle product supports the Intel® Core™2 Duo and Intel®
Core™2 Quad processors with up to 1333 MHz front side bus and even
the new upcoming 45nm Core™2 Multi-core processors. Multi core
brings multi power!
OASIS Cooling Technology
The newly designed OASIS cooling technology deliver a unique system
of heat-sinks covering the MOSFET modules, the north bridge as well as
the south bridge that effectively dissipates heat without the use of fans.
Featuring an all-new Heat pipe design, Shuttle OASIS allows users to
enjoy longer component lifetime through lower temperatures, added
system stability and silent operation.
Supports two PCI Express x16 graphics cards
The Intel X38 chipset takes a major step beyond the P35 with its 32 PCI
Express 2.0 lanes. The Shuttle XPC Barebone SX38P2 supports two slots
PCI Express x16 Version 2.0 delivers up to 16GB/s bandwidth per port,
double that of PCIe 1.0, ensuring plenty of bandwidth for future
graphics cards. Two graphics cards can be used to enable 4-monitor-
operating or ATI CrossFire™ mode for leading-edge gaming
performance.
Finest cinematic surround sound experience
What would a home theater be without booming, immersive 7.1
channel surround sound? Experience state-of-the-art sound quality
provided by Dolby® Digital Live and DTS® Connect functionality.
80 PLUS® Certified Power Supplies
The 80 PLUS® performance specification requires power supplies in
computers and servers to be 80% or greater energy-efficient.
The SX38P2 Pro is in fact the first Shuttle XPC Barebone which has a
powerful 450W power supply built in as standard.
Fingerprint reader
With an added a layer of security protection thru the integrated
biometric fingerprint reader, you can keep your digital identity and
data more secure and no longer worry about having to memorize for
memorizing multiple passwords.
Innovative Speed-Link technology
File sharing among two PCs has never been easier with the innovative
Speed-Link technology, simply connects both systems thru a USB cable
without having the hassle of driver installation or worry about
insufficient space of a DVD disc.

Product Specification
User Friendly Dynamic OverClock feature*)
The user can easily overclock the system through the bios from
3%,5%,7%,10%,15%, to 20%.
New Era of All-Solid Capacitor Shuttle Mainboards
By using all-solid capacitors Shuttle mainboards provide industry
leading stability, reliability and longevity for PC gaming and
entertainment systems. The average lifespan for a solid capacitor is
more than six times greater than the more common and less expensive
electrolytic capacitors.
Supports up to three hard disks and 4 DDR2 modules
The P2 chassis design features four DDR2 memory slots and supports an
incredible 8GB of RAM besides three harddisks, an 3.5" card reader
and an optical drive - which is plenty for the case capacity of just 15
litres.
Mini PCIe slot supports Intel Turbo Memory module
There is one Mini-PCIe x1 slot at the bottom of the chassis which
supports Intel® Turbo Memory (codename: Robson). Intel® Turbo
Memory lets your system actually learn your habits to provide better
system response. That's because it stores frequently used information
near the processor, where it's more quickly available.
Supports Windows Vista Premium
Breathtaking Windows Aero™ 3D visual interface and a host of
groundbreaking new features, Windows® Vista™ Premium promises to
deliver a streamlined computing experience designed to
fundamentally change how users view, find and organize their digital
information.
*) Overclocking Warning:
Please note there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting the setting in the BIOS or using third-party overclocking
tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability or even cause damage of the components and devices of your system. It is done at
your own risk and expense. Shuttle cannot be held responsible for possible damage caused by overclocking.
