Replacement ATX PSU for legacy Dell desktops
This 280 W continuous, 420 W peak ATX supply is built with reduced depth so it fits older Dell chassis such as the E310, E510, E520 and E521. A single 80 mm fan handles cooling while the unit delivers +5 V, −5 V, +12 V1, +12 V2, +3.3 V, −12 V and +5 V SB rails.
Upgrade from failed or noisy OEM units
It replaces the original CX305N-00 or D5032 brick when that unit fails, runs loud or can no longer hold voltage under load. The jump is worth it when the system still meets daily tasks but the factory supply has degraded beyond reliable operation.
Check connector count
Verify the motherboard needs a 24 (20+4) pin and a single 4-pin CPU connector, plus three SATA, two Molex and one floppy lead. Confirm the 5.86" depth clears internal cables or drive cages, and that 110/220 V auto-switching matches the local mains.

Questions about this item
Will the 5.86 inch depth fit my Dell E520 case?
The unit measures 5.86 inches deep, shorter than a standard ATX supply, so it fits Dell E520, E521, E310 and E510 chassis without protruding.
Which screw holes line up when I swap the old CX305N-00 unit?
It uses the standard ATX mounting pattern; remove the four rear case screws, slide the new supply in, and reuse the same screws — do not force the 20+4 pin connector if the latch faces the wrong way.
