BUT!!! i don't know if it will fit, i'm not sure if what i have is matx or atx.. ALSO! the PSU i currently have has a purple socket which my speakers get the power from (you can see this on the Aruba Case linky) Could anyone please give me a hand i've searched and searched but i can't find any info on what i can do :( If i can get that OCZ to fit inside my case what would i do with the speaker connector? so the speakers can get power etc etc.. i can buy some new speakers if thats all thats required i'm just really stuck with this and i need to order the PSU today :(
Can somebody please help? if you need any more info than what i've given i'll be happy to reply quickly with what you need.. i'll be watching this post all day today for help, its that urgent :(

CN Rules clearly state NOT TO multi-post on the same subject, you have already had replies:

"BUT!!! i don't know if it will fit, i'm not sure if what i have is matx or atx.."

I posted the ATX PSU design guide for you in the gaming forum last week. All you need to do is go to the page with the PSU dimensions & compare them to your current PSU...that will tell you if it's ATX or mATX.

Ok i've tried opening up my case and measuring the PSU i currently have myself and its 'something' like this..
^
Height: around 87mm w/o fan on bottom
v around 100mm w/fan on bottom
< Length > : around 140mm
/ depth / : around 150mm
The PSU i currently have as i've said has a mauve socket which powers my speakers but if need be i can just buy some new speakers with a seperate power plug.
I just would really like to know if the OCZ PSU i linked to will fit without problems and be fine as in have the right connectors for my mobo etc etc as i want to put a HD3850 ATI inside as Jam suggested but it will require additional power, sorry for all the trouble :/
If not could somebody post an alternate PSU from Amazon that i could use? thanks guys <3

Jam - I looked at the design guide but it all went over my head, i tried but i still need help with it.

Bakers - The other post was about 3 things this is just about the PSU, i made a new topic as the other wasnt getting replies and i need the answer within the next few hours, sorry if it was considered a rule-break :(
Thank you in advance.. (and sorry)

(Edit: Also i had a look on the connectors and what i could see were..
HD - connected to PSU by 5pin plug
Dvd drive - connected by 4pin plug
MOBO - 24pin i think
and another 4 pin connector
(pins i take it are the amount of wires going into the plug, same thing?) )

Can somebody plz help me? :(
I'm running out of time i can only order it today before the money goes, i cant think of any more information you would need if anyone see's this and thinks they can help please do :(
Thank you

How hard can it be? You look at the dimensions in the guide then check them against what you have.

The size should be 150mm x 140mm x 86mm.
You can also check the spacing of the 4 mounting holes...the top 2 holes should be 138mm apart, the bottom 2 should be 114mm apart.

"Height: around 87mm w/o fan on bottom
v around 100mm w/fan on bottom
< Length > : around 140mm
/ depth / : around 150mm"

I would say your dimensions are what jam posted in response 5

Thanks :) i already ordered it by this point so i'm hoping everything works out, i didn't measure the screw hole spacing before i didn't know i had to but i'm hoping everything will be ok.
Jam it was kind of difficult to understand for me, alot of numbers and although i thought i understood i just needed a little reasurrance on it as i've never done this before and its worrying to me!
Thanks larry for your post also :) I've ordered it and hopefully all will go well i'll let you know how i get on.
Thanks all

The StealthXStream 600W is actually made for OCZ by Fortron (FSP) & it has four +12v rails @ 18A each. Personally, I'm not a big fan of multiple +12v rails anymore. When it was 1st developed, it seemed like a great idea & for a while, it was. But as hardware (especially video cards) have become more power hungry, the split rail design has begun to fall out of favor. Many PSU manufacturer's have gone back to a single +12v rail with very high amperage. For example, this Corsair 650W unit has a whopping 52A amps on a single +12v rail:

That being said, I doubt you'll have any problems. The OCZ/FSP unit is a good one. Here's a review:

Hi guys!
Followup:
Installed my new PSU and it fit in fine.. actually smaller than the original PSU by a little bit, plenty of cables left over for new components and a very nice PSU all-round :)
So if anybody has the PB iMedia 1628 with Aruba case (default mine came with) know that its quite fine to upgrade your psu!
(Well with the one i upgraded to atleast hehe)
Thanks all for your help :)
