normally I'm extremely hostile to power supply guts swaps, but it seems you actually did a good job with that too
With this system I can understand the swap ..I too would be very cautious about using a unproven or even a proven AT PSU with such rare parts, at least this way the PSU internals are new.
Hence It's always important to test the voltages before you do anything!

the price is out of this world, but i wouldn't even sell my setup for anything less.
Thats probably the first slot-1 board I've seen in the wild since I got mine.
I feel bad for saying it, but the seller should have found a yellow/gold wave table card. ^.^

new != better
In power supply terms, new is almost always better. Provided you aren't buying CHEAP new stuff.
The OVP/OCP on new supplies is light-years ahead of anything that was available "period correct". To say nothing of efficiency and voltage regulation.

I came across this one today too! 😀
Back around 1997 I used a HP Vectra mini tower computer with a single Pentium pro CPU.
I don’t think it was the 200mhz version but maybe 166mhz.
Anyways it had a i think it had a matrox video card, 3com network card, HP dat tape drive
32mb ram, 2gb scsi hard drive. CDROM,
Adaptec scsi controller.
It ran Windows NT 3.5.1
Office 97
Lotus office
Netscape
Outlook email
It was pretty reliable. I only remember it crashing a few times with blue screen
Probably crashing to many times as by today’s standards .
But it worked for Me.
I used it for office productivity apps and printing large pdf documents mostly.
And Microsoft access database.
