The VHS PC

**ghosthunter** · October 29th, 2006 01:09 PM

Some notes:

-The power supply has been moved outside the case. I am still waiting to see if I can purchase a micro-PS to replace the external PS.
-The CDRW/DVD combo drive will be relocated UNDER the VHS PC to give it a more cleaner look. To do this, I need to find some sort of filler material (black high density foam, etc).
-The processor fan does have clearance between it and the case, if just barely. I was choosing from two styles and I went with the red fan since it was less taller than the other.
-The motherboard sits on a foam sheet to help minimize pressure points under the motherboard.

looking the pics, I just realized that I used to have the exact same VHS unit a couple of years back.

.. kasya din pala.

pls post how much you spent for the MB and Sempron.

Also if possible, what is your MB and CPU temp during use and idle?

Ps: How come you are not using the stock AMD cooler?

The AMD Sempron 2600+ & Red Fox mboard was a combo deal: P4000.

I'll post the temps later.

The stock AMD cooler is too tall to fit in the VHS-PC case.

Try nyo po sa HMR sa Pioneer St. Marami po silang surplus power supply ng mga branded PC. May nakita ko na maliliit ang casing nung power supply. I'm sure na meron kayong makikita na PSU na maliit pero na-meet pa rin ang power requiremrent ninyo.

I've tried looking throught HMR a few times already. They don't have what I need. What I need is a PICO-PS...
