    If the case supports standard atx psu's then yes. But why are you upgrading the psu? The 750tx is a hefty psu, only needed for sli setups.

    While the corsair 750 TX may be an over kill it will work just fine...That is what powers my rig.

    Even for runing a Gtx 280, a good choice for a psu would be a 520-620hx. It really depends what price you find them at, if you can find a 650tx it a low price that would be great as well, same for the 750tx, but the 750tx is a bit over kill. Under the specs of your computer it would probably say, or you can take of the sid panel and look at the psu to see if it says atx anywhere, or you could just link me to your model and i can tell you.

    net jockey, that 750tx that is powering your rig is Soooooo Sooooo overkill, a 450vx could easily power it. Easily.

    What if the TS is considering other future upgrades?

    ^ if his future upgrade's need that much power then i can see that, but honestly if he stays in the realm of single gpu (im considering the x2's a single gpu here as well even though the are basically two gpu's) then he will not not need a 750tx anyway.

    hey this is the link to my model. HP Pavilion w5130in Desktop PC

    its an hp pavilion w5130in. I looked at images of standard atx cases and i think my model has the same case. Im currently abroad so i dont have my home pc with me. Anyhow your insight would be appreciated before i decide to buy a psu. Thnnxx

    the chances are that it will fit a standard atx psu. So just buy one, if it does not fit, return it. it is an hp pc so it is most likely to.
