Shuttle MN31N mATX nForce2

Shuttle is probably well known for its small form factor boards and its successful line of products. From our past experience, we always feel that uATX board has nothing worth talking about. They probably lack many nice features that are readily available on the ATX equivalent. uATX boxes are especially popular in Asia as space is scarce. With this in mind, system integrators will probably roll out products that are competitive in price and excellent in performance. This remains a challenge to SI to find a stable board with all the necessary features that requires no need of additional cards that incurs more cost. Shuttle MN31N might just be the feature packed board you are looking for.

Shuttle redefines small but power with its MN31N. It features the the NVIDIA® nForce™2 Platform Processor and featuring dual-monitor support, 3 PCI slots, 8X AGP, dual-channel PC2700 memory support (3 DIMM slot), S/PDIF, 10/100 Ethernet, FireWire® and Dolby® Digital 5.1 audio support built-in. On top of that, it comes with a BIOS which allows user to fine tune their systems with adjustable FSB, memory ratios.
