Thanks, that is basically why I just ordered the heavier duty power supply. i have always felt that
the computer will use what it wants, and you should always have more than you need.
but "when it didn't FIT" I thought, oh crap. like I said, I figured it out once the SECOND power supply
arrived and I got ready to plug it up. But when the webstore listed a specific MICRO ATX power supply,
I got nervous, especially since the only one they had listed as MICRO ATX was 300w, which I consider
to be "weak". I figured though, that if that's all that board needs, 300w, then that's all I will give it.
If I notice any trouble, I guess I will use the 600w unit and move on.
