I have a shuttle sn27p2. I'd like to get a new processor. Right now i have an amd 4200+ in it. Would it be possible to put an AM2+ cpu inside it? Also, I have a 420w psu with an ati 3870 video card - would the new processor put too much strain on the psu? thanks~

With the latest bios update of 3/08, you may just be in luck:

Poke around the Shuttle website to find out what cpus might just work.
Your psu should be fine, it's heat that I'd be more concerned about.
