Would it be possible to have a VGA connector hole placed where the power/reset switches are with the switches being moved up? If so, would it be possible to pay extra to have that done? I'm thinking it could be nice to be able to use 3 monitors from my GPU (galaxy 750 ti LP) and two more from my iGPU (if possible).
Sorry, I can't make any changes at this point. Could you fit something in the second expansion slot?
That's too bad. Just made some edits to my post. I suppose I could let the VGA dangle out. I could run long USB cables out the panel and mod USB inserts into my desk(or maybe a stand). I suppose it could be nice to have the ports more easily accessible. Have something like this run to the area above/behind my keyboard. Hopefully lengthening the cables won't do any harm. Atleast if I do it that way I can make them powered. Would be nice considering how much of a peripheral whore I am.
Don't get me wrong everybody, I've had a long day and I thought Id share my idea here though it may sound absurd at first...just hear me out
With the latest development being the vented side panel, would it be possible to get an AIO cooler shoe horned inside the L2 and have the radiator end ziptied tot eh vented side panel?
Prepared for some steel rain
It'll probably still be a week or so. He's pretty much at the mercy of the fabrication and powdercoating guys.Any eta for when the cases will be shipped?
http://www.hd-plex.com/HDPLEX-250W-Hi-Fi-DC-ATX-Converter-16V-24V-Wide-Range-Voltage-Input.html Looks like this guy just got released. Vastly superior to Pico PSU if we can get it to fit
It's only a 60w difference over the PicoPSU 192w. Personally, I don't think it'll make a significant difference whatsoever for this build. It will definitely fit though. Putting this over the 2.5" box with some velco would probably do the trick.
Not just looking at the overall power rating, but looking at the 12v line:
Pico 12v rail - 8A sustained
HDPLEX 12v rail - 16A sustained
You can't simply look at the overall power rating, as it includes the 3 and 5 volt rails, which aren't really hammered on in modern computers.
I haven't used the HDPLEX unit, but my Pico's 12v rail sagged OUT of the ATX spec when loaded with a i5-2500k at stock speeds/voltages. I had to disable a core and undervolt it in order to keep it within ATX spec. That was without a video card or any other high powered components.
Ripple:
I have had huge noise issues with Pico PSUs when powering computers with audio equipment. HDPLEX reports to have a much more audiophile centric approach, with low ripple specs.
Input voltage:
Pico's high powered unit requires 12v input. HDPLEX's is wide range, with 19v optimal. Much cheaper and easy to find high powered 19v units in the wild compared to 12v units.
I have heard a lot of those same complaints but all the ones I have seen have been directed at the M3-M4 PicoPSU line. For a brief time I had a 3770k (undervolted) with my particular unit and had no such problems. Audio problems? None noticed, although I have been using an external DAC/AMP for a while now.

I just went to order an L2 but it says out of stock. Is this permanent?
