Are BTX PSU's different?

Well, there must be a difference. I ordered this; I plugged it all in and it runs perfect.

Type ATX / BTX

Looks like the PSU just says it works with ATX or BTX motherboards. That would tell me that there's no difference.

At least you got it working.

Edit: Double post

Was that an accidental double post or a reply to mine? I was quoting the specs for the PSU that said ATX/BTX, which would mean that it works with either one, making them the same.

Hmm. All of those seem to have higher-than-average +5VSB (5v standby) rails - got a regular ATX PSU with a standby rail rated at 2a or higher that you can try out with that board? I can't imagine why, but that might be it; 2a was on the high side of average last I knew.

Anyway, they're wire-compatible, so it'd have to be something silly like that, or else you didn't try enough PSUs on your BTX 'board.
