Question 1

Will this case accept SFX PSUs instead of a standard ATX size?

Accepted Answer

I haven't tried SFX myself, but I'm sure it's fine.  The ATX is a super, tight fit. In my case, I couldn't even fasten an ATX down with screws. I had to be creative to get it in there with the video card (Saphire ATI 290), which was also ridiculously tight.

End result: this case is super small and looks nice (compared to other ITX cases that support ATX and 12" video cards). It will take some effort to make it work though.

I'm guessing the SFX will fit much nicer.

Question 2

Does this include a CD rom?

Accepted Answer

No. There is a spot for a slim slot loading optical drive.   Those drives are hard to find I wasn't even able to find one on New egg at the time.  Also I'd recommend downloading the manual from the website because it has recommended parts that will fit.  Don't assume anything will fit before reading the manual.  Let me know I can send you my parts list.

Question 3

Does this case have room for a hyper 212 cooler on top of the CPU to not tall enough?

Accepted Answer

It will not fit.  I used a closed loop liquud cooling in my build, I believe it was the Corsair Hydro H55, with a second pwm 140mm slim fan in a pull/push configuration.   Hope this helps.

Question 4

I bought a CORSAIR CX600 power supply and found that the placement of the prongs on the PSU is too close to the front USB and headphone jacks to use with the this case's power cable while mounted (the mounted power supply's prongs are almost perfectly in front of the jacks).

I'm a bit upset because it was a good deal on a solid power supply and I would rather not have to pay money for a different power supply. I'd also rather not drill new holes in the chasis or have to mess with the overrated 10 mm thick aluminum front (no idea why this is glorified so much).

Are there any 3 prong power adapters or very short extensions that are angled which I could use to avoid buying a different power supply?

-OR-

Is there another way to mount my power supply so that it is stable and not crushing/breaking the front jacks and ports or PSU cable?

Accepted Answer

I have a Thermaltake 80+ Gold 1200W PSU in this case and it fits perfectly. I cannot imagine that a 600W PSU would not fit, unless you have a server PSU in a 1U, 2U or 3U form factor. The PSU mounts in the back at the top of the case. You need an ATX PSU.
