Optiplex 5050 PSU upgrade

Looking to upgrade the PSU on the Optiplex 5050. It currently has an 180w. Is there a compatible psu over 300w?

    I have all the parts but I haven't gotten time to finish the build. I did compare the voltage and amps on the old ps and the new one. It's the same, so it should work. It just had a spare 4 pin cable which will go unused. I'll keep you posted, gonna try to crave out time this weekend to finish it up.

    I'm also curious if this will work; did you figure that out yet?

    Y7R0X 500w Dell oem psu is a user validated psu for 5050 and likely would work for 3050 too

    Hello, I'm hoping to get some help with PSU.  I am attempting to upgrade PSU in my Dell Optiplex 5050 SFF.  It came with 180w PSU.  I attempted to upgrade to 360w PSU that I pulled out of my Dell Optiplex 7080 MT.  PSU dimensions are  the same size and all connectors fit into the the needed ports in the 5050.  However, when I install the new PSU, I get a blinking orange light on the front of the machine when powering on.  Machine does not boot, but CPU fan runs at full speed.

    Any ideas?
