Will my psu fit in this case?

[DoofWarrior]

Hi, I'm new to Tom's Hardware, and I am considering purchasing a evga b1 750 watt psu, and a nzxt phantom atx full tower case. I'm only going to buy them if they fit together. The phantom is only 8.75 inches wide (according to Amazon), and the psu is 11 inches wide. Obviously it seems like I already have my answer, but people keep saying that it should fit, which confuses the heck out of me. So, if someone could tell me if it fits, and explain to me how it does/doesn't, I would be very grateful. Maybe Amazon got the dimensions wrong? Thanks in advance!

The majority of gaming cases are ATX standard, be it micro, ATX, e-atx etc. Psus are mostly ATX standard. Some large wattage psus may be a little bit longer, but height and width will be the same. This ATX standard applies to motherboards, psus, cases etc. It's all done in the name of compatability.

The psu will fit. Easily. What I would question is the need for a 750w psu, especially a b1 (older Evga right?) as the b1 supernova NEX are really not that good a psu.

First of all, thank you very much for your answer. I wasn't aware that the 750w b1 was subpar. I am getting it because it seems to cover everything I need to power. Could you recommend a better one that's around $100?

Not a problem. Except 1 maybe. Just what exactly are you trying to power?
