+=== Is the 250 W power supply sufficient enough? ===
-Manufacturers of graphics cards state for their devices what minimum power output a PC's power supply must be able to deliver to ensure stable operation, for example 250W for ATI's Radeon HD5770. Shuttle's SG41J1 series however, equipped with a 300W power supply, still meets the requirements of the graphics cards listed in the Shuttle compatibility list, because the barebone's power supply is especially designed for such a small system which won't allow for installing as many expansion cards and hard drives as a big tower PC. \\

 === Power supply upgrade ===
-The Shuttle XPC series SG41J1 already supports several powerful dual-slot graphics cards out of the box. However, it does not provide additional power connectors for graphics cards (6-pin or 8-pin). A power supply upgrade is required for certain graphics cards as shown in the table.
