- Shuttle SN25P
- For around $375 (and we bet that price will drop shortly when AMD's chip prices fall) Shuttle's bare-bones SN25P gives you a decent small-form-factor SFF case, a 350-watt power supply, and an Nforce 4 Ultra motherboard. There's a PCI Express graphics card slot if you don't want to rely on...

- Enpower Media Center Xpress Special Edition
- Good things come in small packages, according to popular lore, and PC Club's pint-size Enpower Media Center Xpress Special Edition certainly tries to live up to that axiom, cramming lots of hardware into a small-form-factor SFF case. Putting the special in Special Edition are the twin SLI graphics cards, something...

- Antec Minuet 300
- We're not sold on the $90 Antec Minuet 300, but it has nothing to do with its design. The clean and simple exterior speaks for itself. Just look at our photos or watch the video, and you'll see that it's easy to imagine the Minuet 300 sitting on a shelf...

- AVADirect Nano Cube
- AVADirect's $2,266 Nano Cube tries to take on Shuttle's XPC H7 5800 at its own small form factor game. Both systems come with smaller-than-normal SFF cases, and each requires sacrifices, even more than with a standard SFF PC, in exchange for its tiny dimensions. Therein lies our problem with this...

The result is a new, larger case that maintains the compact nature of PCs in this niche, but also lends this system a surprising degree of internal space. Our...

These first reviews aren't based on real-world systems-we won't see those until mid-2009 at the earliest. Instead Nvidia has been providing reviewers with a home-baked small-form- factor desktop to...
