1. A power supply for a computer system, the power supply comprising:
an enclosure having a rear panel, a front panel positioned opposite the rear panel, and a pair of opposed side panels positioned between the front panel and the rear panel;
a printed circuit board defining a rear edge, a front edge positioned opposite the rear edge, and a pair of opposed side edges, each side edge extending from the rear edge to the front edge, wherein the printed circuit board is so oriented within the enclosure that the rear edge, the front edge and each side edge correspond, respectively, to the rear panel, the front panel, and one of the opposed side panels;
a mains electricity input to the printed circuit board positioned adjacent the rear panel of the enclosure;
a diode bridge coupled with the printed circuit board and configured to convert the mains electricity input to the printed circuit board from an alternating current (AC) to a direct current (DC), wherein the diode bridge is positioned adjacent one of the side edges of the printed circuit board's pair of side edges;
an electrical connector extending through the side panel of the enclosure opposite the side edge of the printed circuit board adjacent the diode bridge and being so coupled with the printed circuit board at a position opposite the diode bridge, relative to the printed circuit board, as to output a voltage-regulated form of the DC converted from the AC mains input; and
a back plate supporting the electrical connector.
