No just slap a new PSU into and it should be fine

Posted

I'm looking at a Dell T1600 but I'm worried about a proprietary motherboard and PSU. On this website it says the Dell T1600 uses a proprietary motherboard. Does that mean it can't fit into standard cases or does it mean I can't use a standard ATX PSU with it? I'm planning to throw a GPU (Probably a GTX 1050) into it but I may want to upgrade later on and I want to know if a standard ATX PSU works with the motherboard. The case is fine i don't plan on replacing it the only thing I'm worried about is the motherboard and power supply connectors. I have attached a file of the Dell T1600 Motherboard and i belive that is a 24 pin connector but I want to be reassured it works with ATX PSUs. Just to clarify I don't own the system yet I'm thinking about buying one used.

The only thing that's proprietary about that board are the fan headers (I should know since I recently got a T1600) and most likely the CPU cooler mount.
