I was just converting what i learned in tech class to computers and got not half bad of an idea! The base of my idea is that in a cars ignition circuit there are resistances and if the resistances are significant then the car will not turn over. Then my tech teacher told me that in the trade they would have to give computer connectors acid baths to ensure good connection. He said that even when the connector looked spotless, some times they would still have problems with that vehicles computer if they did not clean the connector. So i was thinking that if the smallest smudge of grime can cause majior errors in a cars computer, what is stopping the resistances in our ATX connector and lines from being a problem? Here is a list of problems I have found with many of todays PSU'S
1. ATX does not make good contact
2. ATX wires are made of aluminum instead of copper!(not 100% sure on this just know that alot are silvery instead of coppery in colour)
3. ATX wires are not thick enough
4. ATX wires lack Large connection with psu
5. ATX wires are crushed into ATX pins in the ATX connector instead of soldered.
6. Too much heat resistance.
I plan to remove all the resistances from my power supply and get back to you on my results.
