Looking for small ATX PSU about 100 watts

koss · 9th March 2009, 12:56 PM

I am making a mini-itx PC in a Jaycar 19" 2RU ABS case http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView...T&SUBCATID=467

The case has 4 posts that go from top to bottom limiting the with of the PSU I can use.

Can anyone suggest a place that sells small ATX power supplie?

The whole system will be only using about 50watts so I figured a 100watt PSU would be enough.

PicoPSU. 120W, and absolutely tiny (although it does need an external power brick).

Can't really use an external power brick, it's going into a rack in a data centre and there is no shelf to put the brick on.

What power brick would the Pico require.... Secondly what are your thoughts on this item:

Don't know how much space you can play with, perhaps it's worth looking into a Shuttle PSU, although it may still be bigger than what you need(also the 24pin/4pin atx/cpu cables usually are very short..may need adaptors). The 100W model is only about $40, although the 250w-300w..could actually be a bit slimmer, and be able to fit (Dimensions: 190 x 82 x 43 mm), to give you an idea.
