sorry if i sound like i dunno what i'm talking about. i don't. that's why i'm here to ask you lot. anyway...
firstly, would it be safe to run a 350W psu (max amps below) with all this lot connected...
16/40 dvd drive
52/24/52 cdrw drive
floppy
7200rpm maxtor hard drive
4 80mm fans (two at max .23A, other two around .15A)
1 120mm fan (max .20A)
thermaltake volcano 7+
1 stick of 512mb ram
2500+
ATI 9600 Pro
a smallish neon light
it's already running everything other than 1 80mm, the 120mm and the cdrw.
and secondly, there's only a couple of main 4 pin (5v?) connections coming out my psu, dunno if that's normal or not but it looks a bit dodgy with everything else running off of them with through conectors and splitters.
is it ok to just add as many splitters as i need, if i stick a bit more in one of them's gonna be running the hsf, hard drive, floppy drive (i think the 3 pin's connected to one of the 4 pins), a 120mm fan and an 80mm fan.
max amps for the psu are...
Output
+3.3V = 28A
+5V = 35A
+12V = 16A
+5VSB = 2A
-5V = 0.3A
-12V = 0.8A
MAX 200W for +3.3 and +5 Vdc output combination.
MAX 330W for +3.3, +5 and +12 Vdc output combination.
