feasable psu mod?
I'm running an Intel 2.4ghz on an Asus P4P800 with a video card hard
drive, cd-rom and network card, no peripherals really. I am currently using a no-name psu rated at 300 watts which gives 3.3v line 14v 5v line 30v 12v line 10v 5vsb line 2.0v then I have laying aorund an Enermax eg 351p-v rated at 330Watts 3.3v line 30v 5v line 32v 12v line 12v 5vsb line 1.8v the first one has a P4 12v plug and the enermax doesn't. Would it be feasable to hack the p4 plug onto the enermax?? second question is: if it is feasable, how to do it. I thought i could get 12 volts by using any red wire and black wire. Howver, the P4 plug on the no-name cpu has 2 yellows and two blacks going into it. any advice? thanks. |

At least I hope so, or his PC may not have a lot longer SteveH |

Yes, sorry, I got carried away and I meant amps. The reason being that the Enermax is a good psu by reputation and I would like to increase the amperage on the 12volt line because I do not think that 10 amps is enough. Comp is acting funny. eric I think he means amps, not volts in those figures. At least I hope so, or his PC may not have a lot longer SteveH |
