Sawtooth Gigabit AGP G4 needs power supply


so besides 2 mac pros have 2001 sawtooth got fastmac dual 1.4 processor upgrade way when , needs power supply replacement. 1 day after not using few months wouldn't turn on. plugged in during time...and changed battery...but nothing when hit button. if can find inexpensive power supply i'd replace myself....i use run older apps , rescue files hds.
found install video
in video specifies delta electronics dps-338b-b 1 for. question though is: have delta model # same specs or can use de dps200 pb-110b? it's hard find exact one.
 

nice youtube video.

haven't searched lately, i'd think new ps designed old sawtooth hard find.

off-the-shelf atx (but wisely not cheap) can used adapted 20/24-pin cable extension between atx & logicboard, do-it-yourself shown here:

in other words, standard 20/24-pin cable extension macgyvered work standard atx power supply connected sawtooth's logicboard's pin circuitry.

i've done sucessfully. atx additional side fan gets problematic in positioning though, i.e.,
fan blows or intakes right against case side - apple had things way "upside-down" psus bought replacements.

also, using adapted 20/24-pin cable extension more convenient macgyvering atx's own pin cable since further psu replacement, if needed, quick & easy.
