Unique Motherboard - Power Supply Options?

[Z Cyber]

Hello all, I have a unique build going currently where I have a low wattage desktop ITX motherboard paired with a mobile i7 sandy bridge processor. Let me start by saying that this solution works, and I've powered up and have used it, but I am looking for a better option to provide power.

See the motherboard does not have a standard 20/24 pin primary connector. The entire system receives power via a single 4-pin CPU connector. This means that I have to hotwire a psu that is constantly running, even when I am not using the computer, though I can utilize the power buttons and reset buttons for the actual mainboard.

The motherboard is unique because of the above statement but also because it can accept power from a circular, 4-pin +12 V dc power supply, external of the computer. For reference as to what I am talking about, please see page 48 of this (http://www.datasheetarchive.com/dl/Datasheets-AQ2/DSAAQ0030406.pdf) document.

While this DC external solution sounds great, I don't know where I could find such a power supply. Is there a better alternate than hotwiring a standard ATX PSU for my application? The system will never utilize over 80 watts.

I am confused as to how the device that you linked works... Will it provide power to the 4-pin cpu connector without the 24 pin main mobo connector (that my mobo lacks)?

Emerson Network Power MITX-CORE-820. It was one of the only boards that I could find for a desktop that would support my mobile processor. If you click on the link in my original post you can learn more about the power delivery.

Those reports could EASILY be over-exaggerated.
