Time for a new case..

I believe the extra bits are for PCI-E motherboards, but I could be wrong (as usual). :think:DaveB wrote:Hi Chris,
I'd not come across this before and only learned about it from my AM as he'd just had to buy a new PSU (from PC World.. and it took two before he got one to work!! ). On the one he had, the last bit slid into the other bit which made it obvious but mine was all in one with the plastic connector a wee bit thinner on the area where it could be separated.
I have to say, it does come with a load of outputs considering its (now reasonably low) pwr output. Especially liked the dedicated SATA plugs
I'll leave changing the psu for now as it's taken me a fortnight to motivate myself into getting this far but I will do it.. honest!! :-$

Its not just the IDE/FDD and SATA cables, its the power cables that are the worstDaveB wrote:
I thought you'd have had those trendy 'skinny' cables that don't need much tucking out of the way mate I used to be a good boy and tidy up in there but my cable ties were downstairs and thus too far to pick up :-$

Hi Andy,
No.. not in this case (no pun intended). There are separate (and marked) PCIe connectors.. not that I have PCIe :roll: I gather from what Chris said that newer mobo's come with a 24pin socket instead of the more traditional 20pin affair. I dunno mate.. all mumbo-jumbo to me

Who knows! If only you could run FS on an Amstrad 1512! :think:DaveB wrote:Hi Andy,
