For Sale - Asus, Gigabyte, etc (any board with a 4 pin header using the same pinouts) S/PDIF+TosLink output bracket. Standard full height bracket, not low profile.

Pin layout:
1. VCC
2. Empty
3. Spdif
4. GND

Couldn't find any of these in NZ for a new HTPC build I'm doing, so ended up having to buy internationally - decided to pick up an extra to see if anyone else wanted one.

Basically the same as this photo on the net, but 4pin version.

Looking at around $20 + postage if anyones interested?

Note: I haven't checked the POBox, so it's not physically in my hands, but expecting it to arrive within the next couple of days to tie in with my own HTPC build.

Yeah, they seem to be virtually impossible to find in NZ which is a shame.   I needed 4 pin, so went that way, but if you were prepared to cut up the connector you could probably hack up your 4pin to fit 3pin since it's the same pinouts, just missing the 'not connected' pin in the middle.

Otherwise my spare ones on the market if anyone wants to buy? ;p

Edit: PS - i picked mine up from the POBox last night, so have them at home now.

UPDATE: SOLD - since it went in a little over 24hrs i'll definitely consider bringing a few more in. :)    they make a great solution for surround on the lower end (cheaper) boards.

I've got a couple of old ASUS SPDIF brackets from when I was building myPVR. We had to stockpile them as they were hard to get hold of. PM me if anyone is interested and I'll match the above price.
