Hi, i want to buy this case but i have a question.



I want to have a GTX980TI SLI, so, this case only allow PSU with a maximun of 160mm length.



The only PSU that i find for this case is the AX860. But, this PSU can handle GTX980TI SLI and a H100I GTX, two hard drives and a SSD with 4 memory sticks and a CPU overclock and all that stuff?....



I don't know why this case only allow 160mm of PSU's. I want to be sure that i won't have wattage problems because all my components inside of the case.



Please let me know, i would like a complete detail of this.

860w psu is more than enough for 980ti sli. Dont even need that much. And that case, I'm pretty sure the hard drive bay is removable so it can take longer PSUs, not that you need it.

You're fine. The damn picture shows a ax860i psu which is pretty much the same as the ax860 in the case...
