I have heard great things about the FSP Group FX700-GLN ATX12V 700W Power Supply.

**TheMatt** · 08-12-2007, 09:52 AM

Thats another good unit. The Enermax Infiniti is good if you want Modular on a budget.

ebackhus · 08-15-2007, 11:29 AM

This is the latest. The monitor is an Acer AL2216W.

HawMan · 08-15-2007, 11:32 AM

Im loving that 'ebackhus' Any more pics of inside the case?

ebackhus · 08-15-2007, 12:04 PM

Not at the moment but I'll have time tonight to snap a few.

WARNING: It's not pretty.

do some cable management first lol

ebackhus · 08-15-2007, 01:07 PM

I'd say the biggest problem is that the PSU has far more outputs than I have need for! I've bundled them up in the empty 5 3/4" bays and will rebind them soon for more aestheticness. Two of the drives are SATA so the cables are small and the IDE drives use a rounded cable. The case forces me to install the drives in the old ways with them running front to back instead of side-loading. Mebbe I can just reverse them in the cages and have things rung through the back plane.

I could really go for some power over wireless for the fans, though...

I put my cables behind the psu and squeezed them in there

HawMan · 08-15-2007, 01:50 PM

My Cables are terrible. Ill try and get a picture in a few minutes.

I had done that originally but there were SO many that it was blocking air from the PSU intake and the top exhaust ports. With them now in the emtpy bays air is flowing much better.

**TheMatt** · 08-15-2007, 06:24 PM

I did the same thing. I will have to take a more recent pic as the cable management is much better now. The only cables over the motherboard are the fan wires.

EB, what about pics of your rig?

**pharoah** · 08-15-2007, 09:49 PM
