My A1XE G4 came with a 420 watt that needs to be changed also. Tell me what you find.

I have a standard 550W PSU that has been fine for years since I installed it. |

I can't remember the brand... it's either a Corsair or Coolermaster. 450 watt, not because I need that much, but because that's what is considered average/small these days and is easy to find and buy.
This one has been in there for three years or so now, at least.

| I have a 400W Corsair power supply in mine and it's running like a dream for years. Very quiet too! Well worth the extra couple of Euro over a generic PSU.
One thing to look out for: Some PSUs do not have the option of the old 20-pin ATX connector which the A1-XE uses. My power supply came with the newer 24-pin one with the option to unclip the last 4 pins and use it like that. I don't know if the full 24 pin connector will fit...

There's a big arm reaching into your AmigaOne. I hope he's friendly. 
BTW if there is a can you can spray onto the PCB that frees up all the dust let me know. Simple vacuming doesn't work. And nothing will blow it out here. |
