Anyone know if the Corsair 1000 watt psu will even fit in the P182 case? I'm looking at getting both in the next week or so but the power supply chamber looks like it's limited to a standard power supply size, and the 1000 watt power supplies all seem to be longer than average.
 
No one with a P182 case uses a larger power supply? Are they even longer than average power supplies? I'm just going by the way a lot of the 1000 watt + power supplies appear in pictures on newegg.
 
If you use the lower section fan, you are limited to approx 7" (18cm) deep power supplies, if you do not, and just have the fan from the power supply cool your lower HDs, then you gain an extra inch to 8" (20cm).

That includes leaving some breathing room, it's actually 9 1/4" (24cm) from rear of case to the lower chamber fan mount, with no fan installed.

To specifically answer your question, the powersupply you linked lists depth as 20cm (200mm) so it will fit without a lower fan installed. A slim (120x20mm) fan will fit in front of the HDs if so desired.
