ATX Standards for Budget Gaming Build

[mikeEng]

My questions is if any ATX power supply will fit in any ATX case and will be able to Power any ATX motherboard?

right now I'm building this PC
and I'm wondering if everything is compatible

edit: Can you fry a motherboard with a high watt PSU?

Other than potential length issues with larger, more powerful units, the mount-points of ATX PSUs are standardized, so fit in an ATX case should not be an issue.
A system will only pull the power it needs from its PSU (and that PSU from the wall); no, an oversized PSU won't fry parts, but it will likely spend most of its time operating in a less efficient part of its range, meaning slightly higher electric bills.
The Xigmatek Gaia cools within 1C of the Hyper212 EVO (per Frostytech reviews), for only $20. Not saying the CM is a bad cooler, but it is a bang/buck LOSER. I use Gaias on my systems, and am completely satisfied with them.
