thru some modifying, i managed to fit an Opus 90w PCB into the morex 3677 case. A few questions/concerns about doing this:
the first 2 pictures are how i would like to have the board oriented since the power wires would exit that side thru the back of the case, but as you can see the USB connection is very close to the yellow thing. (sorry, don't know what thats called).
-What is that yellow thing?
-does it get hot?
-is it okay to have the USB plug hitting it?
-is bending the pins upward a bit an option? just enough to clear the yellow thing.
the next two pics are with the board turned 180* the other way.
the fit is better as far as the USB connection goes, BUT:
-does the black version of the yellow thing get hot?
-Would there be any type of interfearance with either the yellow or black thing and the USB plug wires/signal?
the last pic is of the PCB sitting on a foam pad for next to the Via MB. its a very snug fit, but a nice fit. i will probably use 2 way tape for the pad to case, and some other option yet determnined for the PCB to pad. any ideas for that?
