SFF: 'Silversttone Sugo SG01-F' vs 'Shuttle XPC SG31G2
I bought a Silverstone sugo SG01-F and a Shuttle SG31G2. There are some similarities in the Spec and form factor. I did some comparisons and they are as follows:-
1. The price of the Sugo with a 780G motherboard & a decent PS is about the same as the Shuttle which comes with a motherboard and PS.
2. Sugo is bigger and more flexible and it offers plenty of space for your stuff, but you can also fit in two hard disks & a PCI-E card in the Shuttle!
3. Sugo is solid and heavy and with thicker steel materials, but its dimensions lack of accuracy - the case is with a noticeable gap when you close it. Shuttle is light and easy to handle and it's so neat when you close the case.
4. Sugo's front panel is made of solid aluminum, while the full exterior enclosure of Shuttle is of aluminum. The interiors of both are built with steel plates.
5. Sugo can take any typical MATX board you throw in and it would outperform a typical Shuttle's.
6. Shuttle is an absolute silent system if compared with Sugo which has 4 fans inside (including the one for the processor)
