I've got a bit of a crazy idea myself that I would like to try. I've got myself a Lian Li PC-402A.
The idea is to fit a TRUE120 onto a zotac 9300 in the case with a Q6600, 2x2GB, HD4870. 320GB Seagate and 1.5TB Samsung + optical.
The plan (as it stands, and not much has started yet) is to take out the PSU that is provided (crappy 180W thing). The TRUE will fit in where the PSU was and I'll cut out the back for exhaust.All the other components will fit as normal, except the PSU.
Here is the bit where I need your help. Does anyone of a Flex ATX PSU that would support the power I need. (pref 1u) I've found the following from Seasonic: SS-400H2U (400W),SS-460H2U (460W), & SS-600H2U (600W). It will sit above the PCI mount. (I'll figure out the mounting once I've found if its possible or not) Other issue is finding a single slot HD4870 (is a T-RAD single slot?)
The 460W seems to have the best Amps on its 12V rails(max 18, peak 21), but there are only 2, where as the 600 offers 3 rails (max 17 peak 20 on 1 of the rails, slightly less on the others)
I haven't bought any of the parts yet apart from the case, cpu, memory, hard drives and optical. (mobo, gpu and psu to buy) Does anyone know of any good flex-atx PSU's that would suffice or whether the 460 or 600 would do?
If you've got any ideas or suggestions please through them at me. Insults I'll take aswell. Let me know what you think
O BTW if it works, I will of course change the colour to Black, or maybe some other colour, but hate it as silver.
