No; same PSU.  (Silverstone; should be sufficient)

I have not explicitly reviewed them.  It should be sufficient, as this
case/psu was intended for systems such as I just put in.  I replaced a
P4 1.3Ghz with an AMD Athlon XP 1.8Ghz.  I replaced 3 IDE hard drives
with 1 SATA hard drive (and the PSU has native SATA support), but this
configuration worked in the old system too.  I have one fewer
expansion cards installed presently.

This system cannot dual-boot presently.

I don't have access to any known-good pvr-500 systems.

Yes, I intend to mount the motherboard and configure it for a testing
platform; I will try to do that tomorrow night.

Any partular modules?
