I have an Asus Pundit P1-PH1 and want to upgrade the power supply. The current PS is 250w and would like to upgrade to a 300-350w. It's a P4, 24-pin mainboard, need molex, and SATA. I'm having some problems finding ones that will fit. The dimensions are 4.75"L x 4.75"W x 3"D (121mm x 121mm x 76mm). I can't go any bigger dimension wise for space reasons. Thanks in advance.

Hello arnshrty, and welcome to AnandTech Forums.

What do you need the extra power for? The original PSU was made by Delta, and it shouldn't be that bad of a unit.

Have you already tried a normal ATX PSU?

A possibility would be to use a smaller PSU such as this one. The shop I worked in used to do that in systems that used proprietary PSUs - just use a smaller one and leave a gap.

I have it lying around and going to use it for a media center. I'm upgrading the processor to P4 3.8ghz and twinx ram. I just don't feel 250w cuts it for anything useful. Thanks for the info.
