Besides its XPC range of small-form factor desktop systems, Shuttle also builds a series of all-in-one PC solutions based on Intel’s Atom processors, such as the X50V3 Cedar Trail fanless AIO that the company is getting ready to launch.
The system, which was uncovered by FanlessTech, is built around a 15.6-inch touchscreen with a 1366x768 pixels resolution and weighs just under 3kg (roughly 6.6 pounds).
Its computing power is provided by one of Intel’s new Atom processors based on the Cedarview architecture, the Atom D2700 to be more precise, that packs dual processing cores with Hyper-Threading support working at 2.13GHz.
Since the Shuttle X50V3 is a barebone system, users have to provide their own memory and hard drives, so the AIO comes fitted with two SODIMM DDR3 slots supporting up to 4GB of system RAM and with a single 2.5-inch drive bay for an HDD or SSD.
As far as connectivity is concerned, users get four USB 2.0 ports, a 4-in-1 card reader, Gigabit Ethernet, wireless b/g/n (150Mbps), as well as D-Sub and HDMI video outputs. A 2MP webcam is also provided.
No details regarding the pricing, or the release date, of the Shuttle X50V3 all-in-one are available at this point in time.
As many of you surely know by now, Intel’s Cedar Tail platform comprises the Cedarview processors and the NM10 chipset.
Unlike its processors, the CPUs used by Cedar Trail are built using the 32nm fabrication process and feature a unified architecture that packs the processing cores, memory controller and the GPU on the same die.
The latter is actually based on a PowerVR design and features hardware decoding capabilities for a wide number of HD formats including MPEG2, VC1, AVC, H.264 and Blu-ray 2.0 making it much better suited for playing back HD content.
