Unless I can find the better 90W power adapters, I'm stuck with 65W typical AC power exactly like laptops.
I have two Antec ISK systems I need to buy laptop-style power adapters for and will likely end up with the lower 65W. I should plan for that...
I'd like to replace the current DDR3-equipped Atom boards with something much faster but gaming capable...
I might be able to get back my i3 3220T (35W) processor and give him something equivalent but standard. That'll free some power for a low-profile video card like a Radeon 7750/R7-250 or maaaaybe even a Geforce GTX 750(non-ti)
If I can't get that processor back, what are some of my other options?
I could snag an AMD APU A10-7800 (which seems like a lousy value! $165 seems too expensive and the $104 C A8-7600 drops the video speed pretty drastically, IIRC.)
That would also be a 65W processor, pushing the power supply to the max. That going to be a problem if gaming for a few hours?
Love to hear your thoughts!
