I need to route the PSU input to another location, how would i go about doing this? BTW i dunno if this is the right thread.
well, i have a shuttle and im putting a black ice xtreme on the back and the psu input is getting in the way so i need to route it to a different location, is there a way to do this?
You can either take the PSU apart and route the plug-in to another part by extending the wires or soldier two wires(or crimp) from the socket to another socket.
is there any way I can eliminate mobo ports? do i just solder them off? also can i move some of the ports around by adding wire extensions?
uhh no. i wouldent take anythign off the mobo unless you realy want to kill your computer. well you can try, but with out a decent SM iron and with no knowlage of what the parts do you have a .01% chance of success. as for the ports... ps2, usb, network, sound, video ~ yes, but be very carfull. you are working very close to VERY important stuff PCI, AGP, prossesor socket, ram ~ no. dont even think about it. hundreds of very very small pins, plus latency would be a royal biach, slowing your computer down to a 386... internal sound patch, LED headers, smalls stuff ~ yes, but be carfull! its a much better idea to find the propper extention cable, and use that if youve never done SM before, i would highly reccomend agienst soldering ANYTHIGN on your mobo
New question, i bought some RBG LEDs that instead of having 4 prongs (one red, one green, one blue, one ground) it has 6 prongs. i think the two are for red, two are for blue, and two are for green. if this is the case, would there be a positive one and a negative one? or can i just have the two prongs go to one wire?
its just i was planning on using a LED with 3 stubs (R,B,G) so where would the cathode and anode stubs be wired to?
