Hello, I'm going to be upgrading my PC case soon to the Antec VSK2000-U3 , which is a slim PC case which requires a TFX power supply. My problem is there are no TFX power supplies that can stand a wattage of 400W or greater, which is my primary reason for running a PSU outside my case. I just want an opinion on why I should or shouldn't, or if there is a 500W< TFX Power Supply.
For reference, the computer I'm putting into the case is here:
