Question antec 1200 PSU issues

Hey people been a while since i been here..ive not had any issues since building my own pc..so neglected this site somewhat..sorry

anyway onto it its not an issue so much as a query..ive heard that some PSU's have trouble fitting in the antec's as they are the wrong end of the case some PSU's cables are not long enough? my system is the same as in my sig i dont suppose anyone has the same kit with that case?
i want to know if it will work before i spend £100+ on a case as i dont want to have to buy a new PSu just to fit the case..
thanks in advance people...

P.s oh im now a folder too cant put me score up as im at work and dont have the link but i finally took the plunge....if anyone has a team i can join that would be nice too

Dont worry i cant see it being a problem because you simply run the cables behind the tray so even though its a large case the difference shouldnt be that big... And if you do have a problem you can just buy a 8pin (or whatever you need) extender

Now go buy that case because its awesome

Yeah, just order an extender when you order the case just to be on the safe side.

As everyone else is saying, the only extender you may need is the 8-pin haha

I just run my 8 pin over the video card, its small enough to not restrict airflow. (In the 1200)
