    Antec nine hundred

    hi, i have been thinking about getting a new case for a while now and found nothing that i liked or nothing with good cooling but then i came across the antec nine hundred, nice looking with 120mm fans.
    but while doing same research into the case i found out because of the psu being at the bottom the p4 wire does not reach. i was thinking of getting a hiper type r 580watt psu, but unsure if it will reach.

    so my question is will the psu i picked work or if anybody knows of one that will.

    i choose the hiper as i am planning to upgrade to sli system later in the year and i dont want to spend to much on a psu.

    in advance thanks for your help

    I have the Hiper R and I have a PC in a P180.....the thing is the Hiper is not in the Antec....

    The Hipers lead is quite long and I would EXPECT it to reach, although I couldn't say 100%.

    Anecdotal evidence points to a high failure rate amongst Hipers - no experience myself, but I would shy away.

    My personal preference is for Enermax, but Corsairs and Seasonics seem to be the new hotness.

    These chaps know far too much about PSUs...

    My Type-R 580W is the old version, the ATX24pin could reach, but the 4pin 12V does not. As said above an extension cable will sort that out easily
