I purchased this InWin case less than 3 years ago:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811108065

I believe the power supply is going bad - random shut-downs are occurring as well as very very long boot times (10 mins).

Inwin's RMA request department has not responded to my submission at all, neither has customer service. In the mean-time, I have a friend that purchased this from me, and he needs it to be operational.

I want to buy the replacement PSU, and deal with INWIN later, but I need to know what the form factor is (this is my first build with this type of case). Should I be looking at Mini ITX, Micro ATX, or something else?

Yes, it does, but look up Micro ATX power supplies and you will see something that is too large for this case. If you look up Mini ITX, you see something that I believe is closer to what I am needing.

I was hoping somebody would recognize and know right away what it is I should be searching for. I believe the product description calling it Micro ATX is a mistake.

What are the power supply demensions? There are about 6 small form factors.

Googling around the power supply is listed as TFX on a couple sites.

Seasonic makes a 300 watt TFX form factor power supply, check demensions and connectors.
I thought it might be SFX.

Seasonic is $51.26 shipped, worth it for no problems, honest 3 year warranty.

ITX uses 40 mm fan sohould be easy to tell apart, TFX use 80mm fans.

I don't know the dimensions. Might have to go to his house to pop the case and be sure, but I am going to look at the units you are pointing to. I *might* be able to estimate what the replacement would be based on my mental image. I do believe I was wrong about it being Mini ITX.
