A zelman9500 AM2 heatsink and normal sized atx powersupply... will it fit into a shuttle or cube sized case? I'm thinking of buying a case like this but want to know if it would fit.
If you buy a shuttle, the heatsink and PSU is alsready included with the case. Standard PSUs and HSF's won't fit and aren't needed - the included stuff is pretty good.
Other cases like the Qpack or Aria should handle the PSU, the zalman might be too big though.
Actually the ARIA / NSK 1300 have their own proprietary PSU size. You CAN fit a standard PSU in there but it takes ALOT of modding. About the largest heatsink for the CPU you can get in the ARIA/1300 is a Zalman 7000.
