QS motherboard in a DA case

Is it safe & possible to put a Quicksilver motherboard into a DA case?
Is the DA power supply enough or would the original PSU from the Quicksilver be required. I expect that there are power differences and that the QS PSU is necessary.
Is there anything that I haven't considered in doing such a transplant?
Thanks.

The DA basically is a QS, so it should be just a straight swap with no other considerations.

It will fit. Depending on what CPU you use, you might need to add 12v to power it. The QS logic board and power supply have an extra 4-pin connector to power the CPU. Let us know how it goes!
