[SOLVED] PSU Shelf

[vulcanrvn90]

Hello,
My computer case's power supply mounting area has a metal shelf that comes off the backside of the motherboard tray to help support the power supply when mounted. My problem is that with my power supply for whatever reason, that shelf is about a half-inch too far below my PSU, and it's quite small compared to the PSU itself. I have a picture but it isn't great but I did crop it and adjust the lighting to help what I'm talking about to stand out a bit more. What would y'all recommend I do in order to close the gap between the PSU and the existing shelf, also what should I do to make the shelf stick out farther? should I just look for a metal plate long enough for what I need, then drill two holes into it and the existing shelf then mount with washers? Or should I look for an l shape plate? IDK and could use some ideas.


Also, I'm looking for taller case feet and preferable rubber/sorbothane/silicone or something thereof that would act as anti-vibration or vibration dampening feet as the computer itself will be sitting either on my wooden desk or the wooden floor, anyone know of anything that would be taller then what I have? Also what would you call the type of squeeze mount that my current feet have?

You probably have a smaller than full size power supply which is why that bracket does not touch it. You don't need to use it, leave it as it is, the PSU screws will hold it in place without any issues. If you really want to, you can measure the size you need and just cut out a small block of wood to put there between the shelf lip and the PSU.

For the vibration, you don't need to replace the computer feet, you can simply glue some pads to the bottom of them that are rubber or put a full mat under the case. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=anti-vib...1410751&tag=googhydr-20&ref=pd_sl_xfmuaddnu_e
