I will be receiving a rpi3 soon to run my mini miners and would like it all to run from the ATX psu that I currently have everything plugged into. The psu is hooked upto a breakout board from eyeboot which from what I can see has a 5v white 4pin socket on it.
I have no idea what this socket is called but would it be able to power the pi?
Alternatively could I use an lm2596 based voltage regulator to power the pi from a 12v feed or is the pi sensitive to voltage fluctuations?
Thanks.
you can do it i saw a post the other day on the web can't find it now they had it all running off a atx psu with custom made cables ..sense i won't do but it's a idea that way you might save some space form the 110 line junk and even be able to use everything on one line over a 240 line on a atx .
I use this http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Charger-Foldable-Technology-Motorola/dp/B00B8L36A6/ref=sr_1_3? and is one phip linked i have been using for a year now might get a few more they save space over the annoying plugs that all most all ways seem to use up to much room on the surge plug or what ever you use.
