Connecting PC PSU to A1200.

[HardStep]

Hi,
as i'll have too many additional devices connected to desktop A1200 i have to upgrade my PSU too. How hard is to adapt a PC one and what should i look out for, when choosing the suitable PSU?
Also, can i get the power for external scandoubler fan from that PSU? And where could i get power for a fan inside the desktop case?
Thanks.

Yup, you can use a PC psu

I am working on a workshop... here is the part for the psu

NOTE: It appears that Commodore did not use a consistent wiring scheme for all PSU’s so please check your lead.

Does this mean colours vs voltages or what? You might want to clarify that in the pdf - at least I understood that first as "the voltages might be in different pins in different psus", since it was immediately underneath the pinout picture..

CBM suck ass for wiring!, to Jope you must listern!!!

And if it helps;
RED +5
WHITE -12
YELLOW if not BROWN if not GREY +12

and BLACK GND

This meens commodore has used sometimes difrent colours.
The Pins are the same... would be kind of madnis... you buy a 1200 PSU but its wired difrent... you nuke your Amiga 1200 whit a Org 1200 PSU


I am still working on the workshop for towering a 1200 in to a PC case so it might still have unclear things in it

Chill out man, don't yell. I just drew notice that the PDF's wording and also the location of the sentence was a bit misleading.
