PSU for MicroATX?

Any PSU will fit. MicroATX refers to motherboard size.

Get something fairly short. Long PSUs will work, but I had this case and my 175mm long modular PSU was almost making it impossible to plug my GPU into the first PCIe slot.

So yeah, for that case: The shorter the better. Also short cables are a definite plus for the case, because cable management is a b**** in this case. Almost no space behind the motherboard and only slightly behind the PSU.

Silverstone sell the PP05 short-cable-kit for their modular PSUs. That is something I would consider. Also their PSUs are usually fairly high quality.

This is true but smaller PSU will help greatly when installing.

 

 

Looking at building a PC in a BitFenix Prodigy M case. Never built a PC using anything MicroATX, so unsure if they make PSU for computers this size or how that works. Any PSU or information on how that works would be greatly apprciated! Thanks!

Silverstone makes some very small PSU's, 150mm deep is the smallest non SFX one they have atm
