"Hello,

I don't have any that are ideal for it (160w) as they just don't seem to be available. The only one that I have that will drive it to full capacity is 192w and is listed in my store."


should i go for it

They replied very quick. It seems to be a very good seller. That should be the correct power brick.......

That part on the BACK to hook up.... looks to big.... you might not be able to use it on the STOCK hole on the case....

You can't. I have mine hanging through the old Power Supply AC connector slot...

I pointed out the bracket for it in post #512......

That bracket will not work with the brick he is looking to get.

be careful here,
some power bricks from minibox come with a fan inside
that kicks in when the system is under stress...

You can easily drill a screw hole and mount it with a wire clamp below. It should be very clean in the back.......

No it won't. They only have the full size plates. But if you are going with the 102 or 120 brick the back hole on the case will fit with the barrel connector.

What case model is that on?

As I have an ISK300-150 with a PicoPSU and I was able to secure the power cable (that runs inside the case terminating in the connector that you plug the lead from the brick into) to the back of the case using the small stock hole and the washer on the end of the PicoPSU cable.

No drilling or dangling required!

Upgraded to a 150 and this does not fit.

Some do, but it make very little to no noise.......I have one power brick with fan for my laptop at work.....and I cannot hear the fan from it....

If you get this "192w AC-DC Power Adapter, 12v 16A" for the pico 160, it is fanless......

That is what I am talking about... that is clean and you can use the stock hole.

So now I am thinking to get this 120 PICO

HERE EBAY 120 PICO

Just need to find a Brick that I can change the power cord on the back so I can use it in the UK....

Or should I get something higher?

Hope it all works so I can update my POST...
