I going to buy a shuttle, but i cant figure out if i should go with the SN45G or the SB61G2.

The SN45G is using the Nforce 2 chipset and the SB61G2 is based on the i865G...

Im going to install a Barton 2500+ which will do 2.4-2.5Ghz in SN45G and im going to install a 2.4C in the SB61G2, I dont know how high that will do..

But which will give the best performance, with some 2x256 KHX3200 BH-5 and a GF4 TI4200..?

How high would i need to OC the SB61G2 before it performed like the SN45G at 2.4-2.5GHz?

I originally would have voted for the Amd since I'm kinda an AMD fan boy. Lately I've really been wanting to play with a 2.4c or something of the sort.

I say go with the pentium, cause if for some reason you get an overclocking itch, you could put it into a bigger case with a nice watercooling kit. You'll probablly get a better overclock with it.

The shuttles are cool cases though. Everything you need crammed into a shoe box. If you go with the pentium shuttle get the limited edition one, or somethiung like the frag box thing cause its got a light and window.

P.S. I'm sure you might get an overclock in the shutlle cases, I don't think it would be as high as an overclock with a full sized rig and watercooling. I could be wrong though.
