Replacing Power Supply need help...

lailam · 09-15-2008, 08:34 AM

I own a Dell Optiplex GX620, slim case desktop computer. I just replaced the graphics card and the minimum system requirements state a "350 watt power-supply with a minimum of 20 amps on the +12volt rail". I'm having some difficulty finding a power supply that will fit my chasis...any suggestions? or should I just purchase a new chasis (a standard size one)with the power supply already installed?

if it's agp the 20a willl do
if it's pcie you need a min of 26amps on the 12v line
you are better off upgrading the case it's hard to find psu's for those smaller cases
but we recommend buying case and psu as seperate items,as psu's that come with cases are usually generic
