With our DiVX encoding test we're able to bring the SB52G2 back to the charts as we're not dealing with any 3D performance tests. Although video conversion is a bit out of the SB52G2's job description, it's still worth including to show the benefits that DDR333 and a non-shared memory video architecture will give you.

It's worth noting that the SiS 651 based MiniQ can't keep up with the two 845GE based systems here, which makes us wonder exactly what gave it such a big performance advantage in a couple of our gaming tests.

    Oops -- I should've included this:

    The above link has a "spec sheet". Takes a P4 up to 2.8G, etc. etc.

    MSI has a new "MegaPC" SFF PC with built-in stereo tuner (has a spiffy LCD on the front), model MS6251. If anyone has any experiences with this one, esp. with Linux, please let me know -- I'm emailable at:

    Speaking of taking up space on the desk...

    Is it just me, or is it more "efficient" to have a PC on the floor where you'd otherwise have... floor (under a desk, or near it) than to have a cube PC take up desk space that you can otherwise use?

    Well, except that the keyboard is two inches thick, there is no AGP slot, the chipset is SiS, and the performance _really_ stinks. :(

    Build an nForce2 IGP in there, let it use standard drives and memory, and make it as inexpensive as shuttle boxen, and it'll be worthwhile :)

    There is an alternative to the Box PC. It is called the "zero-footprint-pc" by Cybernet, it is a complete Pentium 4 based PC inside a normal size keyboard. The CUBE PC types are nothing more than a mini-tower still taking desk space. The Keyboard PC does not take any more than a keyboard on your desktop.
