I have a ninja mini installed in a small case my self, im not at home right now, so i cant post measurements, but I thinking i had just over 12cm between the motherboard and the roof in mine... i have the measurements written down at home, and will post back here after i have checked them out, to se...

I chose to use 80mm fan, because of the height of the chipset cooler, i cannot fit a 92mm fan on 1side of the mini ninja. I can fit 92mm on the otherside, but i think it would be better from a noise standpoint to match the fans if i want to use push pull? Thanks for the link :D il need to find a uk ...

currently im using a mini ninja heatsink, with the fan from a celeron D HSF on it. I am looking for fan: PWM controled so , id like to buy 2 of the fans for push-pull but i only have 1 pwm socket. 80mm in size Reasonably high CFM (enough to cool an OCed cpu) and quieter than what i currently have If...

And this is with a PS2 keyboard, is this ever even possible with a USB one? Yes, and has been for years. Some keyboards even have a little "sleep" button which will turn your PC off too. Turn off, turn on, all from the keyboard. in the bios of my pc, i can set it to turn on with the ps2 keyboards s...

I wana set up a push-pull setup on my mini ninja, and i have lost 1 of my 90mm fan clips, can i buy them seperate from anywhere?

Thanks Markp1989

http://e.molioner.dk/projects/ups/ somthing like this seems suitable, uses this http://www.mini-box.com/picoUPS-100-12V-DC-micro-UPS-system-battery-backup-system If i had money i would consider getting one.

A UPS that delivers 12VDC + picoPSU would be ideal for what you're thinking about... but I have no idea whether such a device exists. It would probably be simple to make, at least for a PSU manufacturer. I would like a ups that give out 12v, because like said above, the dc/ac conversions are wastef...

I have 2 pcs running form 150w pico psu xt, and a dell Da-2 specs: Desktop: MB: Asus P5KPL-AM iG31 CPU: e5200 @ 3.75ghz ram: 4gb DDR2 800 - running at ddr 1000 Storage: 30gb OCZ Vertex ssd GPU: Nvidia 7300GS Desktop Power Consumption: Idle 52w Load 94w Server: MB:Asus P5KPL-AM iG31 CPU: e5200 @ 3ghz...

the Mini-Fit Jr connector is already on the pico psu input (you just need the matching 1 which like i said, i stole from a broken psu), the barrel disconnects from the wire. I connected the 3 12v lines together, according to a thread i read here, they are all connected internal, just use separate wi...

http://www.mini-box.com/M350-universal-mini-itx-enclosure Anyone seen these in the flesh or bought one? I'm still thinking of cooking up an Atom 330 build... this case ticks all the boxes for me except for the lack of filtering and 40mm fan mounts... just not sure how hot an Atom 330 board gets tha...

I have a pico psu my self, with a dell da-2 What i have done is fitted a 2x2 mini-FIT JR to the power block, and fed it through a pci bracket, to the pico psu. I was supprised how much 150w can run: my system is as following: CPU: Intel e5200 @ 3.75ghz MB : p5kpl-am RAM: Kingston ddr800 ram running ...

I finaly got around to testing my pcs: Desktop PC consumption CPU E5200 @ 3.30 ghz 1.2v vcore Idle 48W Load 75W Dual monitors: 62w combined Server Power Consumption Idle 58w Load 89w edit:Changed the motherboard in desktop, and overclocked more to 4ghz, low load power usage is : 116W, but its not si...

I was pretty pleased with it, i have left the power meter pluged in to my server constantly, currently its been on 111hours and used up 9.23units. It does spend most of its time at load, as runs FAH constantly, but for all the functionality i get out of that machine its worth the power it uses. i di...

When you know how much shipping is to the uk, pm me, and il give you my address

Thankyou

i am going to take the vantecs out of my case when i get the 60mm - 80mm adapter i ordered. I can mail the fans off to you if you would like them. Just need your address and a little bit of time to get the adapter and new fan installed. =b i have steeped down my oc to 3.3ghz (highest i can get at s...

How have you interfaced the PicoPSU with the DA-2? Looks like you also have some yellow wires tapped into the 4pin connector heading off toward the front of the case too... in my build i just tok a p4 connector from an old psu, and used a connection block to add that to the DA-2 i could take some p...

I just turned on my pc this morning, and the mini ninja seems noisy :S im running at minimal speeds, as i was before, but now it was silent, now it making a droning kind of noise :S

So is it what you expected, hoped for? Or....?

i wasnt sure what to expect, i was hopping for it to be under 100w so im pretty pleased

I have a pc that is on 24/7 used as a torrentslave, fileserver, and media player. I wana know if any one has a similar build who knows what sort of power it uses, i would like to use a kill-a-watt but i dont know where to buy one in the UK: specs are: CPU: e5200 @ stock speeds MB: Asus P5KPL-AM RAM:...

My Ideal case would be the following: Space for full size PCI cards but not much higher No power supply space. so it works well with a pico psu 1 external 3.5" bay for a card reader 1 external 5.25" bay 1 internal 3.5" and 2.5" bay the current case i brought on ebuyer, is small, is wide enough to fi...

Hey, this thread has interested me, does any one know where i can buy a kill-a-watt in the uk reasonably cheap?

Thanks Mark19891989

I just tried putting pads on the corners of my apple aluminum keyboard to quieten it down abit, it made a difference to the sound form the keyboard hitting the desk, but i can still hear the sound of my fingers hitting the keys, i was thinking of getting some thin foam to stand the keyboard on to se...

i think the velociraptop may be abit to much for a pico psu.

The cpu etc should be ok.

I just tried running the hsf fanless, the CPU Itself stays cool enough, but without the air flow of the cpu fan (the only 1 in my system, the chip set runs abit hotter, (only about 50C) considering that i cannot hear the fan running at 7v, and it keeps the chipset cooler, i may aswell just leave the...

Im running the stock fan , at 7v, cannot hear it, just doing super pi tests to see how hot it gets.

currently i have the fan set to pull the air throught the heat sink, then push it out the side of the case, not sure if there is a better way to mount it.

My mini ninja arived today,

Im running the stock fan , at 7v, cannot hear it, just doing super pi tests to see how hot it gets.

I bought a cheapie 60mm fan from Ebuyer (at least once - weak memory :oops:) and I was really impressed with it - quiet compared to some of the other 60mm fans I've used.

so now you want to overclock?? you just told us in the other thread that "I don't want/need more CPU power, so won't gain anything from overclocking." :o :D No, this is a different build ;P I only said the CPU is said to be the overclocking king and if that doesn't tell how good value it is then I ...
