CPU and case compatibility

Hello

I never bought a case without a power supply before, but for the next PC I plan on building the case I?m interested in does not include a power supply. Below are linked to what I plan on purchasing, but am not certain if it will fit. I think they will because the PSU is for ATX, but wanted to double check with the people who know what they're talking about. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

PSU:

OCZ PowerStream 520W Power Supply With Adjustable Power Rails With LED Indicators, SATA Connector, Model "OCZ520ADJ" -RETAIL

http://www.newegg.com/app/view...=17-104-152&DEPA=0

Note: there is also a 420W and 470W PSU. 520W may be overkill, but i plan on building a SLI setup with two 6800GT's or 6800 Ultra's eventually.

CASE:

Cooler Master Praetorian SILVER ALUMINUM MID-TOWER CASE, Model "PAC-T01-E1"

http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-119-029&depa=1

 
Your thread title needs correcting - yes, any standard ATX PSU will fit in ANY case made for standard ATX PSU. Only if you have a full-tower case might you have a problem with some of the wires from the PSU being too short. But there are extensions for most PSU cables available.
