I'm about ready to start assembling a Super Socket 7-based AT Desktop. However, the board I'm using takes either AT or ATX power, so I want to go with ATX power for better safety and overall reliability. However, most modern PSUs have a large fan port in the top of them which gets almost entirely covered by the top cover of the AT desktop case. It maybe gets 5mm of space between the fan and the case lid, which I doubt will be enough for good ventilation. So I'm wondering what I should go for that doesn't have this issue? Also of concern, I'm using a Voodoo 5 AGP in the build (would have preferred a Voodoo 4) and I'm wondering how much total power I'll need for everything: Video card's molex power, 5.25 floppy, 3.5 floppy, DVD-Rom drive, and hard drive (120GB SATA SSD w/ ide adapter). The only other frustration I'm having atm is finding ones with actual 20+4 pin power connectors.
