Putting if an industry standard psu and the exact dimensions in the product description would save many issues. Those are my two questions.

TFX power supplies (thin form factor) are one of about six industry standard PSU types, and are designed for compact desktop computers using small motherboards such as a micro ATX, FlexATX, or Mini-ITX . Many of the "slimline" cases from Dell and HP require a TFX power supply. A TFX power supply measures about 66mm x 85mm x175 mm, while a standard power supply measures 85mm x 150mm x 140mm. Most TFX power supplies are intended for basic systems with only on hard drive and perhaps a half height video card (most likely, built in graphics on the motherboard), so they supply only 200 - 400 watts.

I'm running it with 0 issues on a 700W 80++ Platinum Certified PSU so I would think u should be fine, although I would see if your PSU is certified because that will make a large difference.

Mike is correct. It is an SFX form factor. A standard ATX PSU will not work. This case is designed for budget PC builds & HTPC's. In either scenario, the included PSU should be adequate.

Corsair has an easy to use PSU app. just go to their site (find the PSU app.) and enter your PC specs, and it'll give you a good idea of what you need.

Yes you CAN use whatever PSU would fit in your case, but you should really determine your power requirements based on your CPU, graphics card, hard drives, etc, then select an appropriate one. Your motherboard doesn't have much to do with it.

Supports standard length ATX power supply. Standard dimension for this form factor is: 150mm (W) x 86mm (H) x 140mm (5.5 inches)(D). ATX PSU's only vary by length. In short, yes, it should fit.

The size of the PSU is the same except for the extra cables. If you manage to push all the cables in then it will work. Otherwise if you are not the person who is used to replace parts in a computer i suggest buy an exact replacement.

It doesn't stick out much - but I would advise checking with EVGA manufacturer for exact specs. That or just order it and return if it doesn't work.

Yeah, this can fit without any issues. The "bay" area for the power supply is clear.

Refer to the Corsair website. They list this information for each model power supply under Tech Specs.

The one I had lasted 3 years running almost constantly. My video card went bad and took it with it. I upgraded to an 800 Watt Thermaltake model when I replaced the video card. You didn't mention what else you are running like additional hard drives or DVD / CD drives. It's a good, dependable power supply, so it may be all you need. Personally, I would go a little bigger.

I don't have this power supply iin front of me anymore, so I can't give you exact dimensions, but I'm pretty sure those dimensions are from the ps itself, not the box.

I haven't seen any ATX power supply that wouldn't fit in this case, even the 1000+ Watt units. Do you have a specific one in mind?

ATX form factor is an agreed upon industry wide standard. If your case is an ATX form factor this ATX form factor psu should fit.

If you had checked Seasonic's USA site, you would have seen this PSU is wider than your system's whole case :D.I don't see why one would want to install a top-end PSU on a computer aimed at average tasks like the Dell model you mention, but if you really want a Seasonic PSU, I think they made models for small case computers (quality isn't the same as in their best series, but still).

Seasonic makes PSUs of different lengths to fit smaller cases. Check your Inspiron for available room before buying. There's nothing proprietary about the Dell PSU's, they're just more compact than standard ATX.

Hi dude, the box says: "500Watts or greater power supply". If you have a certified (real) 500W PSU, you'll be ok.
