hey, My psu hasnt got enough plugs (the type which plugs into hard drive and cd drives) for my neons. Is there some type of splitter which i can plug in that will make 2 plugs from one? Or do i have to get a different psu?
thanks

Splitters are available at all good Computer/electronics outlets and on the web

First question.
Is your PSU powerful enough to warrant more plugs.

its 300wat, is that enough?

crazijoe · 01-03-2006, 05:30 AM

Probably not. Can you post a list of specs on your system?
