I have an IBM Thinkcentre Mini-Tower. It's old but very solid, and the current mobo needs a recap (Duron 1000). I also have an ASUS Core 2 MATX board that would fit except that the IBM PSU is 20-pin and the ASUS wants 24-pin.
The ASUS is a low-end board running a single-core Celeron. I think the IBM PSU would have enough juice to operate the ASUS.
Can I take the extra power from one of the spare Molex connectors. I could use a 24-to-20 pin adapter and splice into it.
Sounds like a bodge, but don't want to buy a new SFF PSU, and might not even fit the IBM case.
Your comments appreciated!
