Reusing a Dimension 3100c

Question

Hi. I want to put a new mainboard into an old 3100c as it is a nice small case. Does the psu have standard wiring or is it proprietary as on some Dell models?

The Dimension 3100c BTX motherboard is Dell proprietary and there is no retail motherboard available.

Ditto on the power supply, due to it's shape and size, but the wiring connections are standard ATX

The Dimension 3100c Service Manual, is here,
