Upgrade PS for an HP m8100y??

[moralsage]

Can someone point me to an upgraded power supply for the HP Pavilion m8100y? I have one onorder which will get here next week, but it's a micro-atx setup (I believe) and comes with a stock 350w power supply. I "think" I can order another HP PS on their site which may fit which is 460W, but I wonder what other tried and true options there are. I'm hoping to install an 8800GTX and want a strong PS in it.

I'm not sure if HP has a proprietary PSU pin layout, i.e. if the motherboard has the same connector as any standard mainboard. If it has, then any PSU will work. The Seasonic S12II are among the best PSUs out there and quite cheap for how good they are. A S12II 430W woultd be a good choice, as it leaves a little headroom and is not much mroe expensive than the 380W one.

This is the PSU listed for a HP-8100 http://www.power-on.com/atx12v250bt.html So if this is the right one...it is ATX. Your MB takes a 20 pin connector so just to make it easy, get a PSU that has a 24 pin connector with the 4 pin break-away.
