RM650 and Node 304

The Doctor

Hey guys, I have been looking around for a new PSU to support a better GPU and I am really liking the RM650 by Corsair. But I am wondering if the RM650 will fit in my Node 304 with a new GPU (something like a GTX 770 or 870 when it is released).

Thanks guys!

 I wonder why you'd need a 650W PSU in a system with max. 1 VGA. Even a R9 290x can easily be powered by a 500W PSU, so you could choose a smaller one or maybe even use you old one (depending on the old PSU).

Old one is a CX430. I want to go Modular and get/make some sleeved cables so I can make my build look sexy :3
