Old Anteq case + psu

Krazy Owl · Jan 18, 2013, 06:16 PM

Hi.

I just got my hands on an old Anteq SLK1650 beige case with a 350w TruePower psu.

Will put some vintage stuff in it and I would like to know about these psu if they were reliable.

Don't want to blow the old setup even if it's old.

Thank you

brandonwh64 · Jan 18, 2013, 06:16 PM

FSP, antec, or hiper?

Krazy Owl · Jan 18, 2013, 06:19 PM

Don't even know for now I did not yet remove the dust form the inside. :P I will take a look later on then.

Antec psu's seem to hold up pretty good. I have a couple older ones in my crunching rigs that do fine. If it works I would go with it. You can always pick up a decent low wattage unit for a great price used later. Them old rigs seemed not to need a big psu unit.

If the PSU was from the age of fake/low quality caps, it would've died by now. Antechad a massive problem with Teapo caps. But if it is still running, you should be fine. 350W will power an early model dual core system no problems and new computers use even less power so you could get away with an i3/i5 system if you wanted to.

Thank you

Did you get the Full size case or the mini?

In any event, nice...

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 01:04 AM

After testing the system setup it worked fine. DFI motherboard skt 478 with 2 big caps blown still able to hold a massive overclock hehe. After I decided to open the psu to clean it I seen a blown cap really dry stuff so it's not new. Will repair the mobo when I find the caps and the case will be cleaned and painted black during the summer.

Antec SLK 1650 has only one size from what I seen over the net.

Frick · Jan 19, 2013, 04:48 AM

Any trace of the OEM in the PSU?

Anyway dunno abou where you live, but here the cheapest place to buy caps from.is ebay.

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 04:35 PM

Finally its Smartpower 300w.I just dumped it but i keep mobo as summer project and give it after.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 19, 2013, 05:13 PM

Dude if you where closer I could hook you up with some old crap.

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 08:17 PM

Thank you but I already have some new old stock psu here. I already built one crap.

Could be useful to have the live in case I need it I could pay the shipping with paypal later on.

PM me with the list. Where are you located?

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 19, 2013, 10:50 PM

I live south of the border from you. LOL shipping would probably be a nightmare.

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 10:55 PM

The customs are free for all electronics under 100$ in Canada. About the shipped since it's old stuff no insurance is needed.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 19, 2013, 10:58 PM

Okay. I will get a list and send to you. Also is there anything in particular you may be looking for?

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 11:23 PM

Not really but I'm sure if you post it in the ForFree section you will make happy persons and maybe even get stuff in exchange.

I will look at the list and tell you what I need. Thank you in advance!

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 19, 2013, 11:37 PM

That reminds me, where is the for free section this year?

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 11:42 PM

Its in the For sale thread. You just choose the prefix FF i think.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 19, 2013, 11:44 PM

Oh we normally have a thread once a year just for free stuff. Everyone post there stuff they want to give away in there and it's first come first serve.

Krazy Owl · Jan 19, 2013, 11:46 PM

Ok i did not know about that.

SLK 1650 Mini... THIS IS NOT

Made a boo boo...see below

Krazy Owl · Jan 22, 2013, 03:52 AM

That is not a SLK 1650. That is a SLK1650 mini tower:

Raw · Jan 23, 2013, 01:18 PM

Whoops...you're right, my bad.
I put up the wrong pic.
This is the Mini, as you pointed out.

Krazy Owl · Jan 24, 2013, 03:20 AM

This is the one I have and I've built a Socket 478 inside.
