Dimension 2400 Power Supply

Can anyone tell me if the Dimension 2400 requires a "DELL" Power Supply? Mine is going out, and I was just curious if I need to get a direct replacement from DELL.. If so does anyone know how I can get it????

    A standard powersupply will fit the 2400 and the 4600 without any mods or you can get a Dell replacement here:

    Just to be sure ,you should found out if you have Dell's power supply and motherboard or the standard ATX ,here are 3 ways to find out. If it says you have a intel motherboard then you can use a standard atx psu.If it says no intel board detected then you have a Dell board and psu ,if you put in a atx pcu with Dells board it will fry.http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-009009.htm-

    I know I am a bit late to this thread, but I have a Foxconn mobo and I replaced the PSU with a Antec 650 watt PS and I have had no issues what so ever. And so far (almost 4 years later) I haven't had any issues, and I have this system loaded. I upped the CPU to 3.33Ghz 2 gigs of PC 2700 3 HD's (1 300Gig, 1 500 and I TB) DVD burner X-FI card nVidia FX 5200 with 256 MB ram HP DL DVD Burner and a Avert TV Tuner and the computer runs XP SP3, Vista SP1 and Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
