    Recommendatiion for reliable PSU w/ 80mm fan

    So, as of late, I've been using the SeaSonic S12II for replacing power supplies. It's cheap, and has KZE everywhere.

    Well, I have an interesting computer in the shop. It's got an Allied PSU with lots of blown capacitors. The S12II won't work in this case, as there is a air duct for the CPU that will block at least 3/4 of the 120mm fan.

    Does anybody know of a PSU with a rear-mounted 80mm fan and reliable capacitors? I've done some looking, but seem to come up empty here. All the consistently reliable ones seem to have 120mm fans on the bottom of the PSU.

    As always, I appreciate any knowledge you're able to share.

    if that's a dell with a green duct then check that the old psu is actually wired to atx standards - dell have a habit of changing stuff!

      If it had a allied psu in it, it is standard ATX. Allied never made psu's for dell. Check out lower end seasonic as well as pc power and cooling. PC P&C have a hatred for 120mm fans (even though they are coming out with a 120mm fan model with modular connectors,) and PC P&C units are mostly seasonic.

      Something like that should do fine.
