Optiplex Tower Plus 7020, 500w PSU upgrade
Hi,
I have a Dell Optiplex Tower Plus 7020 desktop that came with a 260 internal PSU, 80 plus bronze. I want to upgrade and found a PSU, model number L500epm. This one is 500w, 80 plus platinum. I suspect the output pin configuration might be different since the mobo needs an 8 pin connection. Will this work in my PC?

@ejn63 Thanks. I believe my issue is a little different. The PSU I want to use it DELL OEM, not third party. The output pin configuration is what I want to confirm will work or not, to avoid frying my system
