    The SN78SH7 is designed to take the latest AMD processors, supporting both socket AM2 and socket AM2+. This includes dual, triple and quad-core Phenom and Phenom II processors, which will turn it into a powerful PC capable of high-definition entertainment and playing the latest games.
    It’s capable of smooth Blu-ray playback in Full HD thanks to the onboard Geforce 8200 graphics chipset, while an HDMI output that supports HDCP connects directly to a flat-screen television. Should you wish to install a TV tuner card or a PCI-Express graphics card, one PCI and one x16 PCI-Express 2.0 slot are available for upgrades.
    Four Dimm slots on the motherboard allow you to install up to 4GB of DDR2 memory, supporting speeds of up to PC2-6400, which will make a big difference when running many demanding applications at once.
    As you would expect from an entertainment PC, you’ll get high-quality surround sound too. Up to eight speakers can be connected in a 7.1-channel setup. The Dolby Digital Live and DTS Connect certification will bring the cinema experience to your living room.
    Furthermore, the SN78SH7 has two 3.5in drive bays that can hold two Sata (serial ATA) hard drives or one hard drive and a card reader. There’s also enough room for one 5.25in optical Blu-ray or DVD drive.
    As for connecting further storage devices quickly and easily, the SN78SH7 has two eSata ports on the rear. A D-Sub VGA port, four USB ports, line-in, S/PDIF-out, Firewire and Gigabit-Lan connectors complete the line-up on the back panel.
    For your chance to win one of four Shuttle SN78SH7 barebones PCs worth £289 each, simply answer the question in the right hand column.

    Answer ~ AMD Phenom II

    I suppose the good thing is at least it tells you if you've entered already, even if it is via another website!

    Well in that case, it's impossible to check if a comp has been posted before with totally different website and links.

    If you searched links, then typed in the name of the prize etc, you'd never be off the board!
