Pico PSU suggestions.

KraziJoe · 2012-04-12 16:06

Currently my build is as follows.

CASE: ISK 310-150

MB:ASROCK A75M-ITX

CPU/GPU:AMD A8-3870K

BRay- Panasonic UJ240 6x Blu-ray Burner

Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600

Which Pico would it take to make sure this is all powered up and working correctly? I would think the -Mini-ITX DC-DC picoPSU-120 mini power supply
I see it has some adapters but would need a slim sata power cable for the Blu-Ray Burner.
Suggestions? Comments? Crazy?

The link you posted for the picoPSU is the DC-DC PSU only and does not include an AC adapter. You'll need to get an AC adapter that also can output 120w as well. To power your ODD you can just purchase a 4-pin molex to SATA power adapter cable.

The picoPSU-120 + 102W AC adapter combination will work for that setup.

Looking at the back of the your case, it's not clear if the picoPSU jack will fit in the antenna port or if you'll have to do something different. You need to think about where you'll plug the AC plug into the picoPSU's DC jack. One option is to drill a hole in a half-height slot cover and mount it there. A 5/16 titanium drill bit will do it. Then you can mount the picoPSU jack in that hole.

the ISK300-150 already has a hole for that.

Oh, so that 3-hole port on the left isn't for an antenna? Is the diameter too big for the 5.5mm barrel jack? It looks like it would work with a mini-DIN connector style.

dont think you need a mini-DIN here.
the ISK300-65 doesnt come with one so

So you ripped the 150W supply out of the ISK 310-150 and want to replace it with a PicoPSU? I've been running one of these for a few years now Intel DG45FC + E5300 C2D + Nvidia GT218.
