Default Help on my PSU.
I have a Dell PSU that has 250 Watts of power. I recently found it in a bin on our apartment's hall. I opened it and found it had the fan's wires were cut. I attached them back together and kept them together with Scotch tape. Will it work? Will I have to put a fan outside of the case?

I won't bin it... I would rather get some cash off of it.

I found that it was made 4 years ago. And just to say, I will have 15 watts to spare.

Hi there Team Blast and welcome to PC Help Forum.

My motto is, if it ain't broke, keep it. If it's worth anything, sell it
