All the interior of throwing, take the normal power supply of the pc and try on his. The original cooler from PSU I decided to leave, but they are very noisy in the near future will change to a more quiet. Native Connector 220V solder in place of the old, I cut off the button and connected directly to the. Cooler solder parallel to the cooler in the power supply.

Runners for hdd I pushed forward, because the motherboard standing behind. And I had to change the attachment for them: the handle "A" rested against the edge of the body and I shortened it a bit, also sharpened the thread on the bolt.

Very nice!

I really appreciate that you have kept the cutting to a minimum for the motherboard I/O plate in the back. Too bad they are a bit to the back compared to the original.

What PSU did you use to fit in the original PSU case? Was this a lot of trouble?
