As long as the power output on the brick is the correct voltage, and you have the right connector, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Well if it's the same wattage, and the same voltage, it'd have to have the same amperage. P=IV . But yeah, odds of that happening are pretty low... I would assume that it uses its own custom power supply.

So zotac will probally make it's own brick just for the board? If that's the case then convience wise when that thing breaks will be annoying. Having to wait to get another one from the company. But hope this isn't going to be the case.
