Will A Standard Mobo And Cpu Fit

[Mïcrösöül°V³]

i was thinkin of getting a server case cuz they got lots of room, i just wonder if a standard mobo will just bolt in it. here is one i am thinking of getting Server case (http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=11-144-034&depa=1)

Yes see http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?...e=3&listStyle=2 (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?DEPA=1&submit=manufactory&catalog=7&manufactory=1998&description=&page=3&listStyle=2)

Btw why not get this one from Antec. Much more stable PSU. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....y=BROWSE&depa=1 (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-129-120&catalog=7&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=1)
I know not tricked out enough. But much more stable cause of the PSU.

Model "ATXA7AW/420" -RETAIL ...that is the model number and it has ATX in it..which might mean it supports ATX..I think it does

I think the power supply on the other one should be ok...I have an $80 dollar Ultra 500watt PSU, which came with my chieftec dragon for FREE. It has worked great for me..

[Virtualbody1234]

Yes, the motherboard will fit.

[Mïcrösöül°V³]

hey bigdawg, you got a link for the case you have?

[Virtualbody1234]

How about this one?

This is the case I have, except mine didnt come with that PSU (I bought mine from tiger direct) and mine is silver, and doesnt have Front USB/Firewire.

It is the exact same design though...if you bought that case I could PROMISE you would love it...as I am in love with mine.

so will that power supply run all the fans and my mobo? i have an ASUS P4C800-E deluxe mobo @3.3ghz, 3 hard drives, 1 cd writer, Radeon 9500 pro (which is powered by the PSU) and a case fan, which that case seems to come with 3 or so. do you think that PSU can run all of that? :helpsmile:

hey bigdawg, is that PSU any good that comes with that cheiftain case? i dont know a good PSU from a junk one. i know watt rating dont seem to mean shit when it comes to quality. oh , and thanks to everyone for the help :flowers: edit - i have a HEC 300w/185 continuous PSU now. also, does that case come with fans?

[bigdawgfoxx]

I dont believe it does. I like to buy my own neway to make sure the sound rating isnt too loud.

I dont know if the other power supply is good or not, sorry.

[zapjb]

Things I considered when buying my new case. Cost to have PSU & case fans I needed. Some cases come without PSU or sh*tty PSU&#39;s. Also a lot of cases come without sufficient case fans. So don&#39;t go cheap on PSU or case fan brands.

[bigdawgfoxx]

Double post...sorry

[bigdawgfoxx]

I would go to tigerdirect.com

I would buy a chieftec glossy dragon series, that comes with a free 500watt PSU.

That would cost you about &#036;100 Here (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=113076&Sku=DRG-GR-ULTRA)

Buy 5, 80mm Coolermaster blue fans, as it is the same price as 4.

That would cost you &#036;30 Here (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-999-051&depa=0)

&#036;130 for a good 500Watt psu, 5 awesome QUIET fans, and a sweet looking glossy red case is a pretty good deal..

[clocker]

I&#39;ll bet Bigdawg is going to recommend Tigerdirect.

Maybe even twice.

[Virtualbody1234]

I was going to remove the first of the double post but then clocker&#39;s post wouldn&#39;t make sense.

Maybe bigdawg could suggest tigerdirect. :unsure:

[zapjb]

I would go Antec @newegg.

[bigdawgfoxx]

The PSU they have from Tigerdirect is very nice, as I have it and love it.

The case is also very nice.

You can get the chieftec dragon from newegg, but there is a better selection at tiger direct. Just w/e you want&#33;

Im just recommending a dragon series...cuz i like mine alot.

[Mïcrösöül°V³]

the tigerdirect looks like a sweet deal with psu included

[zapjb]

Imo the Antec PSU is much more stable.

[bigdawgfoxx]

Why do you say that? What makes one psu more stable then another...mine has NEVER crashed..and i can change voltages fine, with NO problem. Also it looks awesome. If you buy the psu alone, it cost &#036;80, so its not a horrible POS PSU lol

The tiger direct dragon series (glossy are realllly nice) with a 500watt ultra psu is a great deal imo

Thanks,VB.
Many of my posts don&#39;t make sense anyway, but it was a nice thought.

You go, girl.
I&#39;d recommend Tigerdirect.
Those temps seem high to me.
Post your Aquamark scores here.

Above is a good article on PSU&#39;s. Never heard of this brand PSU Ultra.
Imho a name brand PSU is vital. But each to their own.

[bigdawgfoxx]

Well each Ultra PSU goes through alot of testing and mine has worked GREAT for me..and it cost &#036;80, so its not like its a cheap piece of shit...mine works great..so does my friends...so I would recommend it.
