Posted September 17, 2014 Is it difficult to manufacture a psu with the outputs on the side? Then you wont see as much cables, of course the case has to be made to have room for it as well.

Posted September 17, 2014 That wouldn't be compatible with many cases and it'd be easier for a case to come with a power cable pass-through .

Posted September 17, 2014 That wouldn't be compatible with many cases and it'd be easier for a case to come with a power cable pass-through . OP means to move the ports from the inside (facing front) to the side (facing the non-windowed side) of the case. If you've previously won the build off please pm me so we can get something worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 17, 2014 OP means to move the ports from the inside (facing front) to the side (facing the non-windowed side) of the case. Though I don't know for sure, I am pretty sure he knew. It would be a very difficult feat though, one that at the least is not compatible with most cases on the market today.

Posted September 17, 2014 No because then you would need an extra inch or two of space for the cables to bend up to your motherboard, making the case extra wide.

Posted September 17, 2014 It can be done, but considering almost no case supports it and narrow cases would have to be made wider to accomodate the terminals and cable heads, it would become a rather tiresome task to do so. Smart idea though.

Posted September 17, 2014 Yes it should be theoretically possible...But it would mean that cases would have to be wider to accommodate the connectors, you wouldn't simply be able to "slide" psu's in and out of the case, you'd have to remove all wires before doing so, therefore, non-modular psu's with side-ways cables would be incredibly unpopular because it's hard to move it in and out. etc. etc. problems everywhere imo Home is where the heart my desktop is.

Posted September 17, 2014 I don't see why this couldn't be done. As of now I cant see a company doing it because they would sell almost no units. No case would be compatible. That being said, You could probably mod a psu and case to work this way. 01010010 01101111 01100010 01001101 01100001 01100011 01010010 01100001 01100101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 17, 2014 Author Cases are getting wider and wider. The Enthoo pro got like 27mm back there. Then the Enthoo comes with a shroud, but it takes up air space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted September 17, 2014 like this psu.png Why not just get the silverstone SFX PSU and just hide it somewhere and reroute the power cable using an extension instead of moving around the plug on a regular PSU. Also how would that help in anyway since you still need to then route a cable out of the case for power even if it was a Enthroo pro.

Posted September 17, 2014 SFX PSU's are low wattage....Not really. What are your specs? They make a 600 watt one n0ah1897, on 05 Mar 2014 - 2:08 PM, said: "Computers are like girls.

Posted September 17, 2014 Like spwath said there is a 600W one that silverstone makes, should be plenty for most systems even overclocked. Updated Modding FAQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
