ATX PSU?
« on: May 04, 2005, 08:23:40 PM »
Will an ATX PSU (Power Supply Unit) connect to a Micro ATX or Baby ATX?

The reason I am asking this is that I cannot find any PSU that gives out at least 300 watts for the Micro or Baby.

The ATX PSU is 88MM (or was it 80?) and according to the size it will fit in a Micro/Baby ATX case. But will the cable that goes to the motherboard fit?

    Michael Lavieri..... What are the dimensions of your current psu ? Is your current mobo configuration MATX ?
    What is your concern , will the psu connector fit the MOBO or will the psu fit in your existing case ?

    let us know

    The dimensions of my current PSU is:

    150mm X 90mm X 90mm
    Length X Width  X Height

    (approximate measurements)

    My mobo is MATX.
    My case is MATX.

    My concerns are:
    Will an ATX PSU fit in my case?
    Will an ATX PSU power connector connect to my MATX mobo?

    Thanks  :)

    I found only one PSU. And that is a:
    Diablo / PSDA320 / 320-Watt / MATX / 80mm Fan
    Which costs 25.99 at Tigerdirect.

    However the above questions still remain.

      My mobo has a 20 pin power connector on it.
      My PSU has a 20 pin slot connector.

      No I am not sure on my measurements.

      Measuring from the back of the PSU. Where the power cord connects:

      The fan is 80mm.
      The top and bottom is 150mm
      The sides are 90mm.
      Measuring from corner to corner is 170mm.

      Confused about measurements sometimes.

      Hope this helps.
