Anyone here have this case? What PSUs are compatible with it? It says that SFX and SFX-L work with it but I want to be 100% sure here.

I'm thinking of getting either the Corsair SF600 (SFX) or Silverstone SX-800LTI. I know 800W is overkill but it's a really high efficiency PSU, SFX, and has a reasonable fan off load, and that's what I value.

After that, I'll be putting my current 980 Ti and i7-4770 inside of it with an ITX board. One SSD and one 3.5" drive.

If prices fall, I'll upgrade to a 1080 Ti (or whatever comes first, maybe a 1180 Ti whenever that happens) and an i7-8700k/9700k/whatever. I think a 600W PSU should be sufficient even with minor overclocking. Cooling is probably the biggest concern with this case but I'm not too worried about having higher temps if I can also keep the noise low.

Small, quiet, and powerful is the goal. This will likely be sitting 2-3 feet from me and I don't want it spinning up loudly.
