That's the only obvious surprise that I can see. Once you upgrade to an ATX12V power supply, with that adapter, you should be fine with any other further upgrades you may want to do.

1060 mini on a 300W PSU!?
Btw, it has a 290W Dell right now. 14A and 16A on the two +12v rails.

Couldn't I use a Molex to 6-pin adapter for the difference?

That proprietary power supply doesn't have any 4-pin Molex connectors. There aren't any 4-pin Molex connectors anywhere in that system.

OK. Thanks. Scratch that idea, I'll go back to Idea #1: replace the PSU.

If you're upgrading to an ATX12V power supply unit you'll need to use one of these adapters:

Damn! Another snag. Thanks for the tip. I forgot it doesn't have a conventional 24-pin header. Any other surprises await me?
