Hello this is my first post,
I am going to switch the power supply for the Dell precision t3600 425w to the t7810 825w (W1FJK). I read that the power supply is interchangeable from the t5600 line and t7810 but only the DR5JD and CVMY8 825w models.
I found a 825w from a t7810 w1fjk model and it doesn't fit unless i remove the top cover. There are some notiable difference.
I haven't powered my dell on yet. Let me know what you think. is this safe? should I not power on the unit? Will this be okay? Do i risk any damage to computer components? Will this support a gpu?
I am looking forward to hearing your response.

After testing the unit i not compatible. installing the 825w w1fjk without the cover t3600 would not power up. So i have a perfect good condition
