if anyone knows which would fit please let me know

    You don't need to put a higher PSU outside the case, the TC-895 desktop comes with a 500W PSU (see highlighted PSUs below) . Acer does fit a 500W PSU to the TC-895 desktop. Search on either eBay or Amazon or the web for the 500W PSUs by their Acer part number as they will fit into your case, and you will be able to upgrade.

    Aspire TC-895 desktop detailed components and its Auxiliary 8pin power connector ATX_12V and ATX_POWER 6pin

    Yes there is the 500 watt one but i have the 300 watt psu I've checked it myself

    Ive heard of the 500 watt psu you're talking about but finding it doesnt seem easy and idk how ebay works i live in belgium and the shipping might be a lot.

    So i would much rather buy another psu and just fit it outside the case
