Power supply

Check the label on the power supply.

We don't have this model's power supply rating. It is printed on the supply's sticker, inside the case next to its fan. Prebuilt desktops often use a supply shaped for their case, so match the shape and the plugs as well as the watts. Small cases take a slim supply.
