    Hi,

    I am trying to create a slim and lightweight egpu, looking at the examples of a converted xbox 203w psu I am thinking about using dell optiplex 210w psu

    DELL NPS-210AB C 210W POWER SUPPLY SATA OPTIPLEX HP-U2106F3 DELL NPS-210AB C 210W POWER SUPPLY SATA OPTIPLEX HIPRO HP-U2106F3 For Dell Slim Desktop Computer GX280 GX260 GX270 GX170L [NPS-210AB C] - $55.99 : ADAPTERS - POWER SUPPLIES - AC - DC - Charg

    it is half the weight of an xbox psu and the shape of it I thought of putting alongside a GTX 460 minimising weight and size, the total weight less for enclosure is 4.51lb's

    Is this psu suitable? and has anyone else managed to build a lightweight slim egpu?
