    Halo 4

    so this thread titled "Halo 4" gives us an 8 minute video... 7 minutes of which talkes about halo's already released, with 1 minute talking about pictures declared fake... thats 8 minutes of my life you owe me. why post this crap!!!
  12. not here for me

  14. internal sound uses almost no power! and the graphics are 6 series nvidia... comes out of the ram and therefore motherboard. its a bios trick, not really hardware. we'll see how it goes. if it dosent work then it dosent work, but think. you can put a 4 core i7 in a laptop now and run that off an 80w psu internaly with a screen, graphics, sound, hard drive, optical drive, wifi... you'd be supprised how economical computers can be
  15. all im running is a motherboard and a hard drive... no graphics/sound cards, no optical drive, nothing really! motherboards require 50w approx, and the hard drive can run of a usb which is 20w... shouldnt be an issue whatsoever . if it is... i may link 2 togeather... only £12...
  16. i bought a m-itx micro psu. 15cm x 4cm. it is TINY! itl arrive in 2-3 days i'll start a project page once i have all the parts. btw, im using the xbox's origional 20gb HDD im going to use it as a HTPC so i'll run the xbox origional HDD as an OS drive, then store the media on an external drive (for now) EDIT: just thought i'd add, its 120watt. that should be enough
  17. i see what you're all saying... but i want to make it all internal if possible. the origional xbox may be worth a look into but otherwise, it dosent hurt to have a look and see what it can shrink 2 im decent enough with a soldering iron... whats the worst that could happen haha
  18. ok, so a while back i posted here that a friend of mine had challenged me to put a pc in an xbox 360 case. that project died as we had no free time, and as students, no cash for parts. but now with 2011 dawning i am reattempting his challenge with a slightly different aim. i'm not building a new pc in the xbox, but moving an old m-atx machine that's about 8 years old into the case. that way there's no parts to buy (other than a hard drive) and if it all goes wrong, it dosent matter. the pc is crap anyway haha. so for those interested, heres the hardware im using. Mobo - ASROCK kfn84g-sata2 Ram - 2x 1GB DDR1 (aka, DDR400) Graphics - Onboard, Nvidia 6100 (using 128mb of ram to a total of 256mb) sound - onboard (alc 888) wifi - broadcom pci card (i will have to cut this to fit...) and the bit where i need your guys help, the power supply... in the case its all currently housed in, its a generic 400 watt "Power-X" PSU. but as those of you who've built pc's before will probably know, PSU's are mahusive! the chasis for the psu will in NO way fit in the xbox case. so i have 2 options, look online for a smaller one (then have to pay for it...) or option 2, disassemble my current psu, taking it out of its housing and seeing what i size i can get it down to. so my question is, A) is that in any way safe or a good idea? B) if anybody has done it, are the circuit boards out of the case small enough to make it worth while? thanks for any help if i can get started, i'll make a thread and keep you all updated with my progress. wish me luck
