Power Supply Querry?
« on: December 17, 2003, 07:51:00 AM »
:uhh: Anybody know the limit for piggybacking the molex connectors for power supply off the hard drive. i want to run 2 invertors with 2 outputs each(total 4) for 3 cold cathodes and 80mm ledfan etc.. Will this cause any problems with overloading etc..
Anyhelp will be appreciated
cheers

Most likely, I'd only say maybe you could add one more molex connector, nut any more than that you should really think about getting a new PSU (power supply unit).

It really depends....you need to check out what kind of current they draw, really. I'd say that's quite a bit to add on considering the xbox psu is pretty much made to support exactly what it needs to, not much more. Try an atx psu with an apache from www.tribemods.com, then you'll have plenty of power.
