Europe-Wide Launch of Shuttle's New SX58J3 Flagship / "The Smallest, Fastest Mini-PC in the World"

ELMSHORN, Germany, May 27, 2010 - Shuttle Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of multi-form-factor
solutions such as the world-famous XPC Mini-PC Barebones, proudly announces
today the launch of Europe-wide delivery of the new XPC Barebone SX58J3. This
new model offers extraordinary computing power and its key features places it
at the top end of what is currently feasible in terms of miniaturisation.

The SX58J3 is particularly remarkable thanks to its compatibility with
Intel's ground-breaking 6-core processor, the Core i7-980X Extreme Edition
(codename: Gulftown), as well with all Core i7 CPUs for socket 1366. To
complement this, the four slots on the Barebone are able to accommodate up to
16 GB DDR3 memory. The central interface for all components is provided by an
Intel X58 Express chipset which was especially developed for high-performance
systems.

"This Mini-PC which measures just 33 x 21.5 x 19 cm contains the fastest
desktop technologies currently available," states Tom Seiffert, Head of
Marketing & PR at Shuttle Computer Handels GmbH. "In particular, professional
applications in the areas of media design, R&D and complex games benefit from
the high performance density of the machine."

One modern dual-slot graphics card or two single-slot graphics cards with
PCI-E-x16 interface can be used. ATI CrossFireX and NVIDIA SLI technologies
are both supported.

The features of the SX58J3 include two Gigabit interfaces that can be
redundantly switched in "Failover" mode or can support load increase with
"Load Balancing".

The two hard drives which can be fitted in this Mini-PC with an internal
volume of just 1300 cubic centimetres can be connected via RAID. A total of
four interfaces for SATA devices and two for eSATA devices are available.
There is also a power connection for external SATA devices. A card reader for
standard types of memory card is located on the front panel.

The effective heatpipe cooling system ensures optimal stability in this
model while the highly-efficient 80-PLUS-certified 500W power supply provides
the necessary energy to meet all requirements.

The XPC Barebone SX58J3 is available from specialist retailers
immediately. Shuttle's recommended retail price is EUR 470 (ex VAT).
