Computer Question
So my laptop died and I decided to salvage the CPU, memory, and hard drive to build a desktop computer. I got a hold of an ASRock IMB-170 motherboard and a chassis to put it in.
I'm having trouble figuring out what power supply to run. I know I want something in the 400-500w range. The chassis is big enough to fit just about any power supply. The problem is the motherboard is a mini ITX form factor and is powered by a single 4-pin 12 volt connector, not the standard 20/24 pin configuration. I'm having trouble finding a power supply that will work for sure without having the 20/24 pin connector hooked up. I also need to power one SATA hard drive and one PCIe video card.
Any advice?
