PSU Help
EDIT: Turns out my original PSU will not work, period. Editing post to reflect that.
Hello all! I've been looking around at PSUs, looking to find one that will fit inside the original G5 Tesla converter enclosure. I bought a Corsair RM750, and in a very expensive experiment found out that it will not fit since the modular connector daughter board can not be moved to fit the case. So - my question is, is there a modular PSU that anyone can recommend that they have used in the original G5 enclosure? I'm looking for a 600-750 watt PSU, if possible.
I also know that this is a common question that is asked a lot, so I could probably find the answer online. If this thread is against the rules, I do apologize! Please close it if needed.
Thanks guys!

Hello all, I am back again with another question. I was starting to modify my G5 PSU, when I realized that the PSU that I bought, a corsair RM 750, seems to be a bit too tall for the G5 PSU shell. The modular cable daughterboard seems to be a bit taller than most of the others. I am very nervous to start cutting the Corsair PSU, so before I do I wanted to ask you all if any of you have run into the same issue and what you did about it. Most of the forum and, people do not have this issue. I am stuck with this PSU so I'm hoping I can make it work without having to buy a new one, but I also do not want to have to cut into the original G5 PSU shell.
Included a few pictures which I hope will show what it is I am talking about. Thank you for any help that you all may be able to give me! I really do appreciate it! Here's hoping to hear from you soon -- stiligFox
