With Sandy Bridge, Intel has moved the clock reference generator from 
the motherboard into the CPU, so overclocking BCLK more than a few 
MHz can create massive instability and corrupted Windows 
installations. With Sandy Bridge, Intel launched the new, affordable "K" 
series of multiplier unlocked CPUs, specifically for enthusiasts who want 
get an incredible performance. However, it is very important to note 
that overclocking  and over-voltage may affect your system stability, or 
even cause permanent damage to your hardware components. Shuttle 
is not liable for any damages resulting from this. 

 

 

The design of the Core i3/i5/i7 processors will eliminate the need for the 
traditional Northbridge found on previous generation mainboards. Thus 
the Shuttle XPC Barebone SZ68R5 sports Intel's Z68 Express Platform 
Controller Hub (PCH) from the Intel 6-Series "Cougar Point" family which 
integrates the hard drive controller, network controllers, monitor and 
physical interfaces, PCIe links and other input/output functionalities. 
Intel's Z68 chipset combines the advantages of the Intel® P67 (system 
tuning) and H67 (visual features) plus Intel® Smart Response 
Technology ("SSD caching"). 

 

 

The Shuttle XPC Barebone SZ68R5 supports the much anticipated Intel 
Smart Response Technology which allows a SATA solid-state drive (SSD 
up to 60GB) to function as cache for a conventional hard disk drive 
(HDD). It uses intelligent block-based caching of frequently used 
applications to improve system performance and responsiveness. This 
is allowing users to experience system performance similar to SSD-only 
systems and deliver a 60% performance improvement over HDD-only 
systems in PC Mark Vantage Suite. SRT is implemented in the device 
driver and firmware and it can be enabled, when the disk controller is 
configured in RAID mode (not AHCI or IDE).  

 

 

SZ68R5 features two Mini-Card expansion slots. One is a half size Mini-
PCI-Express slot dedicated for Wireless LAN adapter cards. The second 
features a mSATA interface (Mini Serial ATA), supporting the new 
generation of Solid State Drives (SSD) in a compact Mini PCIe card form 
factor.

The Shuttle XPC Barebone SZ68R5 is equipped with one PCI-Express x16 
Version 2.0 slot delivering a bandwidth of up to 16GB/s which is twice 
the speed of PCI-E 1.0. So there is plenty of potential for the newest 
graphics cards. It is downward compatible, allowing for use of most of 
the present graphics cards as well.
