edited March 2004 in Hardware
Someone told me that a P4 would not go in this case. They said not enough ventalation. Thats a bunch of Balonie! Then another guy told me if a p4 could go in a laptop than it can go in any case.



The spects are

Intel Celeron 433 Mhz
256 MB SDRAM
40 Gig Harddrive (Master)
100 MB Nec Zip Drive (Slave)
Maddog DVD CDRW Combo
*4.3 Gig Segate (Slave)
Mitsumi Floppy Drive
Windows XP Pro


*= 4.3 gig is on the CDROM IDE cable also i hope to soon have a 20 Gig

  • You'd need a new motherboard and P4 compatible power supply...
  • Laptops are special cases, they aren't that standardized.

    If you want to put a P4 in a case, as long as it's ATX standard you're fine. You'll need a pwr supply that can do P4s (They have a special fan connector) and some good strong fans will keep it from overheating.

    -Q
  • What if the P4 motherboard has 4 USB ports, and he only has 2?
  • get out the hack saw :twisted:
  • Or the diamond tipped drill!
  • Yeah, I personally like to use andthing electrical when working on PC cases. Ever try to use a hacksaw? = / Its a bitch.
  • If it's an ATX case, it's compatible to at least %75, possibly more. But if it's an AT case, you're sunk.

    -Q
  • with an AT case, just cut it out. Or get one of those mini-ITX mainboards.

  • I the mobo has 4 USB ports, the IOshield will fit. You should check the case whether it's an ATX or not. What kind of computer do you have (specs/brand)?

    Or you could just buy a new case for about 40 bucks.

    -Q
  • A P4 will fit, but you have to buy a new power supply. You will need more than 250watt. You should buy a good 350watt min. power supply.
  • I wouldnt worry about this anymore :D
