i have a big question.....what power supply(watts) would i need to run about 3 to 4 cathode lights??

[mhwwdman]

@goliador16 Don't exactly know the answer to your question, but the most I've used on that computer's power supply (550w) was two. I think I could have easily used three or four cathodes on it though.

[goliador16]

@mhwwdman alright then thanx man,,,,but the question would be refrased which power supply should i use for the lights? i have a 300 watts power supply and i dont i dont know if it will hang in there....another question what power supply r u using??

[mhwwdman]

@goliador16 Your 300w power supply might work. Cathodes shouldn't take more power than regular fans I guess. If you want to be on the safe side, you could always get the Corsair 400CX 400w from Newegg for $49.99 (29.99 after mir).

Back then when I recorded the video, I used a Rosewill RP550-2 550W. Wasn't too shabby either.

what's the name of the chassi?

[mhwwdman]

@Nisseeh Apevia X-Cruiser (original one, not the newer one). I highly do not recommend it. There are better cases out there such as, the Lancool PC-K62 and the Coolermaster HAF922.

The lights make it look like a powerful Super computer

[goliador16]

@mhwwdman alright then that sounds good and another question would any power supply work with any motherboard? cus i have a pentium 2 processer which isnt the big thing so would it work like that?

[spraybreaker]

would xfx 4890 video card fit in there?

needs better cable managment, also better placement for the cold cathode. Its kinda unsightly to see them directly. better to have them out of line if sight. Nice rig though
