I did a build with this case & it's a pain to fit a full length PSU in these cases with a dedicated GPU, 3.5" HDD & a Cooler Master GeminII M4.
Took some fabricating but it worked.
Another mockup, probably the last. This time with the mobo installed. I'll add some standoffs to put a little more breathing room between the PSU and HDD and I'll secure the HDD in place as well. The rad won't fit with the fan in front, so it's mounted on the backside as an exhaust, since the Helix fans perform better in push. I also flipped the fan in the PSU so it will be an intake. These may change once I get the rig together and tested, though either way may not be a big deal, since this won't be overclocked.
I should also note that this particular PSU had a plastic trim that screwed onto the front (seen in one of the other photos), that I had to remove to make clearance for the tubes. This PSU is tried and true and been through a lot of mods already, so it'll serve my friend well for this build.
