If you're buying a different power supply then you shouldn't have much issue with cable length from ATX power supplies in that case. If you're really concerned you could use a piece of string to measure out the distance from where the power supply would be to where the cable would go in the case to find the minimum length that the cable needs to be and check on the product specifications page for the power supplies or in reviews for the unit to check the length of the cables that come with the power supply.

I have a Deepcool Matrexx 70 middle tower case specs are found here, I built my first PC but I re-used the PSU from my other PC and I noticed that the PSU wires are not reaching the motherboard's sockets and etc...
I was wondering what should fit for this case and what would you recommend. Thank you
