Optiplex 780 PSU upgrade?

I have an Optiplex 780 Mini tower. No offense to dell, but the PSU is meh. I need a 500w psu with a 6pin pcie connector. Can the 780 take any ATX psu with a 20+4? Thanks

    HI,

    I have an Optiplex Gx520 MT and ATX PSU 20/24 Pin will do the trick. I got a 500w modular in mine right now.

    Yes, either an ATX 24-pin or 20+4-pin main motherboard power connector will work fine.

    ATX is not sufficient.  You Need EPS 12V 2.93 certified power supply.

    You need a CS750M
