hey my dads a electrician and we both are into rc planes and rc cars. now with the lithium(lipo) batteries we use, we have to have a special charger that is dc only, not ac. so its kinda a hassle to have to hook it up to a battery. and now i that i got my new power supply i have no use for my old 300w PSU. i gave it to my dad and he looked it over and was trying to determine if he can get 12 volts dc power out of it. he hooked up his meter to a few of the cords and got no were. just wondering if there is a schematic or a way of somehow getting dc out of my old PSU with out having it hooked up to a comp.

Look up AXT power supply wiring, or, external use of ATX power supply in google

To start the newer ones there must be a load on the 12v line as well as the correct pins on the 20/24 in molex jumped to start the PSU even with the swtich 'on'

Back again with another quick comp spec question. Im in the market for a new comp. my previous one is old and tired. It had E2200 dual core @ 2.2 Ghz and a ati 4350 card on 4gb of ram. it barely could handle FSX on okay setting.

Im looking to upgrade.

heres what im thinking for part spec. can anybody tell me how well this will do playing FSX and on what setting? thanks

Intel core i7 930 @ 2.8 GHz
Liquid Cooling
8GB DDR3-1333
ATI Radeon HD 5670 1GB
MSI X58 PRO-E Mobo
700 Watt PSU
1 TB HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit

Any input is greatly aprecciated.

Thanks

You only need to post it once.

The PC I suggest in your thread here:

http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1277438781

Should run FSX very well.
