[SOLVED] Which ATX power supply can replace the "Solid Gear ATX SDGR - 480"?

[Atreark]

I owned a Solid Gear ATX Power Supply with the model number: SDGR - 480. It's been broken for years and I am trying to replace it, but I cannot find it online anywhere. Any help on finding a proper replacement?

Specs from the label:

Ac input : 115V/230V 10/5A 50 ~60HZ

DC Output : +3.3V +5V +12V -12V +5VSB

Max Output Current: 28A 36A 16A 1.0A 2.5A

Min Current: 0.5A 0.5A 1.0A 0.0A 0.0A


Total Output: 480W

why not just buy an appropriate PSU? they are all interchangable, you don't need to swap like for like.

That's part of my confusion; I'm not sure which to buy. Will any ATX 480w work in it's place?

Solid Gear are garbage power supplies.

You have a standard ATX power supply. Buying another ATX power supply will go in its place. Just don't buy another garbage one.

And whether or not you need a 480W really depends completely on what you plan to power with it.

any good one will, do you need 480W, depends on your system. Personally 500-550 is a nice point to aim for.

like what he said^
