[Mitchell Pomery]

Hey,
Me again on this topic.
http://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/2U/213/SC213A-R720LP.cfm
$988 ex GST.Meaning just under $1100 inc.720W PSU
Is anything happening with the return of out existing PSU matches?
Thanks,

Since no one has responded with other case suggestions, I am taking it as we want this case, and so will bring it up at the committee meeting tonight.

    Thanks for
        finding that.

        

        I'll see if TechBuy will agree to us returning the PSU. 

        

        I am in favour of increasing the budget. However right now we
        don't really have the money to buy the remaining parts, so they
        may have to wait until after O'Day.

        We could make a call for member donations. I don't really like
        to do this since members pay us lots of money in membership and
        drinks already, but it's an option.

      Would this PSU come in handy for any of the other machines?

            The case we initially budgeted for is
              unavailable, so I have had a look for alternative cases.

              I have spoken to DigiCor and they have quoted $1199.00 ex. +
                  $25.00 freight. I
                  am not sure if that freight is them shipping to us or
                  not. But in total it comes to $1343.90. This is us
                  getting it with either all low Profile slots, or a mix
                  of low profile and full height cards. This case also
                  comes with a 900W redundant power supply that we
                  cannot get removed.
              

              
              This compares to $1113
                  for the case and 460W power supply that we have
                  budgeted for. We unfortunately have already ordered
                  the PSU, so without returning it cannot afford to
                  order this case.
              

                
              Has anyone else looked
                  at other cases and do you have suggestions?
              

                
              If we go for this case we either need
                  to return the PSU we have ordered, get committee to
                  increase our budget but $500 (breathing room) or acquire money another way to be able to afford it.
