I want to use my ST61G4 as a home theater PC. I would like to install an
All-in-Wonder 9800 pro (so I can have video input and a good gaming card)
and a Nexus-s satellite card for free-to-air satellite reception.

My question is, will the st61g4 250 watt power supply be enough to handle
both cards including a P4 northwood 3.0 Ghz , 1 Gigabyte of DDR3200 SDRAM
and a Western Digital Caviar SE WD2500JD 250GB Serial ATA 7200RPM Hard
Drive?



Thanks

Should be ok. I have run similar, and even higher, config's on the
Shuttle 250W in some different models.

Absolutely no problem at all. Shuttle PSUs are excellent so don't be
worried because its rated at 250W. THe 5,12V rails output current
equivalent to far higher rated ATX PSUs.

Let us know how it goes. I don't see any problem either. BTY I used a
hacksaw to shorten the memory card bracket and installed a second HDD and
now have at mirror RAID system working great without any problems..... go
for it.....

I'm not sure that the video card will actually fit.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
