To be frank, I don't exactly know what the +3.3V:28A, +5V:30A, +12V:20A, -12V:0.8A, +5VSB:2A denote in my PC power supply DC output section. I am using a Zebronics "ZEB 400W PLUS(20+4PIN)" pc power supply.

I plan to build a 3 point clip using my PC power supply. Can I build? Also, which voltage(said above) should be taken for the LED Assembly Wizard's Power Supply section.

Can I use the four pin connector(used to connect the HDD and CD/DVD Drives) for the build?

Off line Www

using pc as powersuplly is not recommanded, because it's dangerous, if you do a mistake for your pc hardware (example motherboard if you use USB ...)

please, use external power supply, like 2 x battery AAA - it's easy to make, easy to change and safe !

But, in the LED Assembly Wizard, they say that Unregulated Power Supply can give higher voltage than indicated.

So, is it alright to take that +30% voltage which is added to the indicated voltage? Will it create any abnormalities?
