G4 Cube: Replacement PSU with 3.4Amp sufficient?
Posted by: feltel on 2024-10-24 08:02:58
I got a second Cube recently but unfortunately its missing the PSU. I want to build a replacement PSU and want to use a ready made one. I can order a 28V PSU which has a rating of up to 3.4Amps. This is around 100W. It should be enough to power a stock Cube, right?

Granted, using it with an CRT-based ADC display would not be possible, but thats something I can live with. I want to make the Cube working again to pass it to someone who appreciates it.

I modded the PSU I got and can report success. Even with an 17 inch LCD Studio Display it works properly. Granted, the Cube has an SSD not an spinning harddrive, so the load on the PSU should be lower than normal.
