850w compatibility

Question

I just bought a new case and motherboard and I’m curious if the dell 850w PSU will work with it. The motherboard is the ASUS ROG Z390-E strix. I don’t have the money rn due to what’s going to replace it so I’m curious if this power supply will work for temporary use.

Please send us the Dell DP/N of 850W psu.  Since you are posting in Alienware desktop, I presume this is for an Alienware?

How can I know for sure?? I read the pins that fell used are the same but the wiring is different. That’s why I’m scared lol. This isn’t to go against you I’m just making sure not to blow money

Modern4ssassin · Answer

That’s all I have on it. And yes I am taking parts from my Alienware Aurora R8

Modern4ssassin · Answer

The one I have has six cables into the white port with 2 open pin slots. So it’s got 8 slots... but only 6 pins on it🥺

Modern4ssassin · Answer

8.... so I see...

The D/PN of the power supply is 0D1J02 and the cords are D/PN 0654MT and the one labeled MB and R7 is D/PN 0MD63V

redxps630 · Answer

0D1J02 is a modular PSU. If you have 8 pin CPU power cable you are good.

in this sample pic /community/image/serverpage/image-id/3980i1A6559BE11E16F15/image-size/large?v=1.0&px=999

the 8 pin CPU cable is the second one from bottom I think, the psu end is red 6 pin. the cpu/mb end is white 8 pin.

The OP's PSU DP/N D1J02 is a Delta. here is a pic https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/KlEAAOSwNt1ahzjS/$_57.JPG?set_id=8800005007

it does not have any 8 pin ports. for the 8 pin CPU he uses a cable (red 6 pin psu side connector) to connect to CPU/MB (red port R7, R8, R9). the other end is industry standard white EPS 8 pin.

note the cables are designed with matching color codes (e.g., black psu side cable for GPU, white psu side for HDD/ODD)

that is why I believe the second cable from bottom is the one he needs for the ASUS. https://www.dell.com/community/image/serverpage/image-id/3980i1A6559BE11E16F15/image-size/large?v=1.0&px=999

Cass is the expert on this topic but we can not get his advice now.

ASUS ROG Z390-E strix has an 8 pin connector for CPU and require 8 pin cable for optimal operation.

Please send an actual pic of all available cables for your PSU. If you are missing the 8 pin CPU cable, you might be able to get a replacement.
