Hi there! I apologize ahead of time because this will probably waste the time of most of the people that are going to read this.  I have basically been rebuilding my PC from the ground up with the exception of a few things such as the hard drive, case, and disc drive.  I recently got a new graphics card but i need a new power supply to run it as i do not have the required amount of PCIe power connectors.  One thing that I am worried about while I'm looking for a new PSU is that I do not know if all of the units that I'm looking at are the same physical size.  I am mainly worried about this because i have a medium/entry sized PC case.  My current PSU is an ALLIED ATX 300W switching power supply model SL-8320BTX.  If I need to give any more information, let me know, i just want to make sure i dont buy a power supply and then find out that i need to send it back because it doesn't fit in my case.  Thanks for any help! And I'm sorry if I wasted anyone's time with this.

As long as it's an ATX form factor it will follow the standardized dimensions, the only thing that can vary is the depth. Pretty much anything 850W and under will be normal depth and you shouldn't have to worry about it.

Okay, thank you!

what case

It's an AZZA medium tower case that has been discontinued, or at the very least is very hard to find anymore.
