Hey All,
Wondering if anyone here knows which brands typically use proprietary motherboards and PSUs, and which do not? There are many deals on eBay/my local craigslist for desktops with i7's, Windows, lots of RAM, etc. I'd love to pick one up and either just drop a GPU in it, or remove everything and install it in a new case with a more robust PSU. I've seen that Dell often uses proprietary PSU cabling and that their motherboards are not consumer standard form factors. Is this true for all store bought brands?
