Will this PSU fit in this case?

[Gravemind]

Just wondering if this power supply will fit inside of this case here.

 

It says it fits 'standard' PSU's, but I figured better safe than sorry.

sure why not? the ''standard'' psu is ATX formformat

Just checking, because nowhere really says what's "standard", you're just sorta expected to know that. Thanks though.

It will.  I managed a Supernova PSU in that case (barely), which was 6.5" long, opposed to 5.9" like that Corsair.

ye it will fit that psu is standard size its not till like 800w and above they start to get longer but even with a longer one should still fit

[PRTI]

Yes it will since its a standard sized PSU case,and that PSU is standard sized (standard meaning ATX)

Oh, you have the exact same case?

Even though the ATX standard is pretty reliable, some smaller cases like this Apevia do have limits.  Any longer than the PSU I had wouldn't have worked because the cables came really close to the hard drive cage.

That's A-mazing. Is there anything about the case I should be aware of? Like any major pros/cons they don't tell you about? Are the tinted windows on both sides?

I've done a lot of research and it seems the perfect case for me to keep on top of my desk, with enough room for a bit of water cooling in the future or a 2nd GPU. The flip-top design also made it a strong contender for me.

I just about managed to get an AX860 + wires in my case, Evolv ITX

Yes, and I commend you for choosing a good PSU

Yeah, the windows are on both sides.  I liked it for being unique.  It's cool if you're into flashy cases and like to show off everything (even the PSU).  It's one of the cheapest flat tray cases I've come across as well, and easy to open up as you mentioned.  Also manages to still have a 5.25 bay for something kinda on the compact side (it's a little bigger than you'd expect though).

 

Cons?  Eh, cable management, but you can see what I basically had to do in my pcpp build.  

 

Multi gpu and liquid cooling would be a challenge in this case, and I don't think I'd recommend it.  There's no 240mm for a longer rad, and not really a whole lot of room for it either.  Airflow's good though, and it does well with the cheap crappy fans/stock cooler I have in it.

 

Basically, not bad if you're on a budget and would like a flashy smallish case.

 

Side note:  If you want something like that but with liquid cooling support, the thermaltake core may be up your ally.  You're just missing the other window and 5.25 bay.  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133274&cm_re=thermaltake_cube-_-11-133-274-_-Product

@Biggerboot

Thanks, man. It's not common running across somebody who has the same case once you get away from the major name brands.

Np.  These brands are more common than you'd think, but not on LTT, where everyone typically is going to tell you to spend more on something better.  Somebody is probably shunning me right now for owning an apevia case.
