Hello all
I was wondering if I can get some help with this delima. I am planing to upgrade my computer's power supply from a default Dell XPS 8500 450w power supply to a 750w. My question is what will be conpatable with this model without it ruining the motherboard? Do EVGA have any options in this case? What is reccomended? Advice will be appreciated.

    Welcome to the EVGA Forums
     
    Some Dell PC use a proprietary Design, so I'm not sure if a standard PSU will attach to your MB
     
    Any info on the MB that may help identify it  ?

    the connections are the same on the board, its the form factor that might not fit. i have a dell optiplex 9010 that i run linux on and it uses a evga 650w PSU. as long as the case will support the ATX form factor size you will be fine.
