Completed STX160.0 - The most powerful ATX unit, in the world!

I keep hearing about that 250W AC-DC PSU, but so far HDPlex has publicly announced nothing which I find highly disappointing
They do have a 250W AC-DC in development but the issue is with the DC-ATX side of things.
I've never had the AC-DC shut off, I've tested it with both the motherboard and DC-ATX hooked up to the AC-DC, and when the DC-ATX shuts off the motherboard is still running.
When I talked to Larry at the beginning of August he was expecting the 250W AC-DC to launch in the Sept-Oct timeframe.
I've seen that thread yes, but until today, there weren't any recent updates.
Again, though, I figured we'd get an update from HDPlex where there was actually something to show (ie. was close to being done)

Understood..
but if ac-dc is not the weakest link do you think of any solution if 160w dc-dc power supply is. Ot able to juiçe your setup...i don't see much hope, except your new supplier device..
Yeah, I don't see how I can make the PICO-BOX Z4 or current HDPLEX 160W work, so I'll just hope the new HDPLEX works or I'll have to wait for the Gigabyte Mini-STX board so I can use a 12V external brick for everything.
to conclude, this project is damn promising but yet frustrating...love of R&D..
ps : I hope @hdplex could ask you to become beta tester..

To prelude: when you actually get this up and running, I want one for the teen, to confuzzle her The specs should be plenty good enough for her needs, and I can build my next PC with her, so she'll know what a PSU actually looks like and what it does.

Well, the spare case is for sale. But if you're serious about getting it, I'd still wait until I verify the power situation is solvable.
Yeah, which is why I said 'get this up and running', which it isn't yet, well not properly anyway *hugs*
Not sure if anyone's posted this yet, but an older version of what you're trying.

This was mentioned earlier @Aibohphobia said some of the inspiration for this project came from it.
Man, if this thread existed 10 years ago...
Amazing intro to the world of small run case design.

It wouldn't have been able to exist 10 years ago. Hardware, software, funding models and mindsets have needed that time to evolve.
