if you need more information the model is "Acer Veriton VX275-UD6600W"

Um
Considering the width of my 500W PSU completely takes up the width of my Gladiator 600 (which is a pretty loving massive case) and considering your CD/DVD drive takes up almost half of that space alone in your case, that PSU probably won't fit.

You have to search by formfactors (i.e. the size).
That PSU is rated as ATX 12V, which is too big for a tiny case like that.

you might want to do some googling and find what formfactor is best suited for your case.

Get rid of your case and put all the components in a fridge box instead.

From what images I've managed to find, that computer uses a unique PSU, the shape is quite far removed from pretty much any industry standard I've seen before, you'd have to buy a new case and transplant all of the components into it, shouldn't be too difficult so long as you buy the right case size for the motherboard

I think that specific computer is a pre-built right off the market.
All of the built in parts might be unique to that model, meaning you might have to buy all new components and a new case.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I read PSU as Phantasy Star Universe

Wrong, all the parts in it can not be unique to a certain model. Acer does not make the motherboard, cpu, ram or anything else in there for that matter.

The form factor of the case is an ATX Desktop and something like this would fit.

Buy a new case that isn't a stuffty mini one.

That can't be an ATX.
Did you happen to notice how much space a simple CD/DVD drive takes up on that thing?

Chaos is right about the PSU, the one that this prebuilt comes with is thinner and longer than a normal PSU, ignoring the dimensions of the case any regular PSU wouldn't even match up with the screw holes on the case so you wouldn't be able to secure it, the power input would be covered by the case and, above all else, the motherboard would be in the way of any other PSU no matter whether it was vertical or horizontal.

He's wrong about everything else, though, from what I saw in the images I looked at everything else is a standard component
