NVIDIA AND SHUTTLE COMPUTER OPEN THE DIGITAL MEDIA GATEWAY
NVIDIA’s nForce2 Platform Processors And Shuttle’s Small, Form-Factor PCs Drive Audio, Networking and Digital Connectivity into New Markets and Platforms
PLATFORM CONFERENCE, SAN JOSE, CA ¾ JULY 16, 2002 ¾ NVIDIAâ Corporation (Nasdaq: NVDA), the worldwide leader in visual processing solutions, and Shuttle Computer Group, Inc., a leading provider of motherboards and small form-factor PCs, today announced an extensive partnership that will lead to the design of innovative new digital media platforms based on NVIDIA’s highly integrated nForce2™ Platform Processors and Shuttle Computer’s innovative, small-form factor PC designs.
“NVIDIA’s new nForce2 Platform Processors addresses the needs of today’s and tomorrow’s digital media demands,” stated Drew Henry, senior director of platform business at NVIDIA. “By combining the nForce2 Platform Processor’s integrated features, such as dual networking controllers, advanced audio; support for up both USB 2.0 and FireWire® connectivity; and industry-leading graphics, into Shuttle’s ground-breaking, small form-factor PCs, NVIDIA can transition its technologies into new and emerging markets and platforms.”
To transform everyday PCs into truly digital media gateways, Shuttle is currently developing a series of small form factor PCs—capable of powering homes, offices, and home-theater environments—using NVIDIA’s nForce2 series of integrated Platform Processors as the technological foundation. NVIDIA nForce2 Platform Processors offer a staggering array of features including:
Built-in dual networking controllers, including a 3Com Ethernet MAC for simultaneous wide-area network (WAN) and local-area network (LAN) environments
Up to six high-speed USB 2.0 ports to connect the latest digital peripherals
Up to three Firewire (IEEE1394a) ports for connecting consumer electronics devices, including digital video cameras
Dolby® Digital 5.1 real-time-encoded surround sound with S/PDIF-out audio for home theater audio
Video Processing Engine for MPEG2 and DVD playback
TV-encoder and HDTV processor for optimal visual quality
Support for multiple displays, including flat panels, TVs, and CRTs
Fastest integrated graphics performance based on NVIDIA’s GeForce4 MX Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)
“The nForce2 Platform Processors are well positioned to solidify NVIDIA’s grip on digital entertainment,” said Cameron Rogers, Marketing Executive at Shuttle Computer Group. “The nForce2’s incredible level of integration paired with our expertise in innovative, small-form factor PCs, allows us to design and develop PC-based devices that are small, attractive, silent, feature-rich, and amply suited for home offices, living rooms, home entertainment systems and other non-traditional PC platforms.”
Live demonstrations of Shuttle’s new diminutive PCs using NVIDIA’s nForce2 Platform Processors will take place in the NVIDIA booth (#4) during regular show hours at the Platform Conference, being held today and tomorrow at the Silicon Valley Conference Center in San Jose, CA.
