right now i have it hooked thru the pci slot. I am hoping Dougie can make the slot cover with the right hole in it so i can secure the 4 pin mini-din jack to it for a cleaner look.

But yes from what people been telling me you can get away with the 90W Pico I am about to buy.... on a A6-3500 ...... and maybe even a 65W A8...
(2012-05-12, 03:23)OopsAllBerrys Wrote: Yea I am sure the 90w will work with the A6, but definitely not with my A8. I don't think there is a 65w A8. I'd rather go a lil overkill knowing it will work instead of hoping. My electric bill isn't going to be noticeably higher cause I went with a 160XT picoPSUYes, there are A8-3800 and A8-3820 with 65W TDP. Since it have more powerful CPU and iGPU, it'll always peak higher than A6-3500.....

Do you guys think i can get away with 150w for my A8 3820
