After my disasterous attempt to try and find a decent fanless PSU for my new ASUS board (see "Fanless 300/350w PSU with High Efficiency" thred) I thought I would think about getting a PSU thats just speced for this system:
- ASUS N4L-VM DH - 70w
- Core 2 Duo Merom T7200 (ES) - 30w
- Hauppauge NOVA-T-500 (PCI Card) - 10w
- Microsoft USB IR MCE Receiver - 1-2w
- Maxtor SATAII 300Gb drive - 7w
I have done a bit of research I think that the power usage of the above in total is around the 120w mark at full power use (above values are my guesses and would be intersted to know what people think).
It also says here the following:
This guy here has also managed to run one of these same ASUS boards on a low(ish) power PSU that uses the DC-DC technology.
I have managed to find the following PSUs which I think will work:

Any comment on what these are like or wheres the cheapest place to get one ?
Do the power supply "bricks" get hot or make alot of noise ?

...a 150W power supply would suffice if you use the integrated graphics core...
