Question Will a msi mag a550bn work with my motherboard?

Im using a optiplex 790 mt board. Will a msi mag a550bn work with it?

Yes. The cable lengths will be very different that the Dell PSU. Just something to be aware of.

Ok because I read something that said I need over 23 amps on the 3.3v rail but the stock had like 10-15 so it seems like bs.

Also I am running a rx 580 with a i7 2600 8gb ram should that all work fine?

Sure. Should be okay.

Is this motherboard actually in the matching Dell case?

Yes, it is in the dell case. i picked it up for $30 on facebook marketplace and ive drilled out the hard drive bay so I can fit my card. (After looking he may have meant 3.3v/5v rails combined)

Ignore. You'll be fine with the PSU.

cool I ordered earlier today and I was worried it would not be able to fit or it would not work with my board. Won't have to return I guess.. Thanks for the help!

My pleasure. Still an old rig, don't expect miracles in terms of performance compared to newer systems.
