Can you use the side bracket with an ATX power supply?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use the side bracket with an ATX power supply.

Accepted Answer

yes it has a bracket for that included

Question 7

I have a rather large GPU (MSI 3080, 323mm length/2.5 slot), would this be able to fit in this case at all?  I imagine if anything it might need an SFX PSU.

Accepted Answer

it will but it will be a tight squeeze

Question 8

Can I use a micro atx motherboard, ATX power supply and 240mm aio cooler in this case?

Accepted Answer

Yes invert the case so the main opening opens on the right. You can horizontal the Video card or buy a cable and vertical you card. Look up inverted IM01 on reddit. lots of examples. Im running a ID cooling Frostflow 240x in this case inverted.

Question 9

Does it fit regular atx power supplies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I use a full ATX modular PSU of standard size. Other larger PSU might not fit, but I can't speak to it. The only issue I had during the build was that my PSU cables are not very flexible and quite bulky (with hard mesh sleeves). It doesn't really help building in a tight space.

Question 10

Can this case fit the Hyper 212 evo?

Accepted Answer

It depends on which Hyper 212 Evo you have. My Hyper 212 Evo 1st generation from 2010 is 159mm tall, and pushes the side of the case but is still able to fit with the panel on. I was afraid of constant pressure on the board so I just bought something shorter. As for the Hyper 212 Evo 2, that one appears to be 155mm so that should fit. Keep in mind that you won't be able to mount fans on the side of the case opposite the motherboard with a cooler that tall.
