Shuttle today announced the launch of its new XPC Barebone SH55J2. Shuttle reports that now for the first time a single Mini-PC supports all Intel Core variants for socket 1156. Based on Intel Core family processors (Core i3 / i5 / i7), the SH55J2 Mini-PC also include integrated HD graphics chip, turbo boost function, and HDMI.

On the other hand if you require more graphics performance then there is the PCI Express slot which can be fitted with a faster dual-slot graphics card.

What's more, the Shuttle XPC Barebone SH55J2 also has a total of nine USB ports, an eSATA/USB combo connector, audio ports (analog and SPDIF), a Gigabit network interface, a PCI slot and a card reader. Inside the case is space for two 3.5 inch hard disks and a 5.25 inch optical drive.

Its 80 PLUS certified power supply unit with a 300-watt output offers sufficient reserve capacity for sophisticated system components. The SH55J2 is also cooled via a heatpipe cooling system with speed controller. Anti-theft protection is provided by a Kensington lock at the back of the case.

The Shuttle XPC Barebone SH55J2 is available in Europe immediately for $322.
