see details in the cpu power supply write
output got so many but i only wan the 12vDC with 9Ampere another one 12vDC is getting 0.5Ampere only.

But in the output got so many wires and colours i dont know which one is 12vDC 9AMpere output.
So how can i know which is the 12vDc with high current?
the output is one got 4 wire to motherboard then another is like 10 or more wires is also connect to motherboard but it is another socket,finally is the IDE for hard disk and cd rom one,
So which one is 12VDC 9 Ampere?
mostly which part of PC are using the 12vDC 9 ampere?

i Can get a DC power supply but quite expensive so wan modify my power supply only for 12vDC high current should be more cheaper

I get this idea is from a hardware seller he want to modify a cpu power supply for me is 12vDC and 8 ampere but the price is RM90 if i buy a DC power supply no need modify 6 ampere is only RM70,the reason that i wan to modify cpu power supply is for save money.
A power supply is cheaper then modify will save more money and get more high current.

Help Sifuu Tell me whic wire is 12vDC which colour is 12vDC.

Squeezing extra ampere from the PSU will lead to early burn of transformer and switching controller.
build a custom power supply which output 12V DC @ 9A would be more feasible

just to save 10-20 ringgit, you go through all the hassle, and also the possibility of your DIY mod not working and blowing things up.

fwush.

me, id rather just pay the money to get something that is guaranteed to work. besides, in the larger scheme of things, i dont think RM70 is that much.

Well, i've done this project before. Using computer PSU for +5V & +12V power supply. It might be easier to work with if you got the old AT power supply. This kind of power supply can simply be 'on' by toggling the switch. As for the newer ATX, you need to find 'power on' cable and short it to 0V(DC ground). Beware that some ATX need 'dummy load' before can be powered up. Failure to do so may damage the power supply or simply refuse to run.
