Suprisingly Shuttle has not updated their XPC slim series which has primarially been known as their 3 liter format, has not offered support for Intel’s Socketed 7th generation Core processors. This range is finally being expanded by the new XH310 and XH310V models. I would assume the 9th gen support is a ways off due to pricing and power needed, we also have recently covered Shuttles updated lineup here.
Shuttle Releases New Slim XH310V PC’s Featuring Support For Intel 8th Gen Processors Finally.
The models with a 3-liter volume are the largest and therefore most flexible ones in the XPC slim series. They are based on the Intel H310 chipset and support Intel processors up to 65 Watts of TDP for socket LGA1151v2. Up to 32 GB DDR4 memory can be used in both devices.

Despite their height of just 7.2 cm and width of 20 cm, the models come with an extensive set of features. This includes 2x Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI 2.0a, DisplayPort, VGA, 2x RS-232, 3x SATA, space for two hard drives and one NVMe SSD as well as further M.2 expansion possibilities. If required, the XH310 can be configured with a total of five serial interfaces that will use the bay of the optical drive.
In direct comparison, the XH310V has front flaps that cover the optical drive bay and ports. The XH310 does without flaps, other technical specs remain nearly identical. The external remote power-on connection is also new with this chassis type and allows both Mini-PCs to be started remotely. This was previously only available on 1.3-litre models from Shuttle.
“The technical specifications of the two models resemble those of a large PC. Three monitor ports, dual LAN and free choice of drives provide flexibility for (almost) any application.”
Tom Seiffert, Head of Marketing PR at Shuttle Computer Handels GmbH.
Optional accessories include a stand for vertical operation (PS01), a VESA/wall mount (PV02), a 3.5″ drive frame (PHD4), a WLAN kit with Bluetooth (WLN-M) and a cable for the remote power-on connection (CXP01). Only the XH310 can be equipped with three additional COM ports (PCM31).
Pricing And Availability
The MSRP for the Shuttle XPC Barebone XH310 and XH 310V is 192 Euros, though US and global pricing was not announced. shuttle
