Corsair 520w + P180

I've decided I'm going to pick one of these up after work today, but I want to make sure it will be fine with my Antec P180. Does anyone have an idea on how long the main ATX and 8pin cables are? I have a DS4 motherboard, so the power connectors are right at the top of the case. My current Tagan power supply just about reaches, and it's cables are 500mm in length.

Cheers.

PS: While I'm here, I will be running 2900XT, 3 hard drives, DVDRW, e6600 overclocked to 3GHz, Xfi, DS4, 2GB memory. I think it will be fine? Just to double check though.

Thanks again.

The P180 and HX520 will be fine. I think the ATX cable is 19".

It's fine. I have a 620W corsair. No issues

fyi I had a bit of trouble with the cables coming out of the psu and interfering with the lower fan - a bit of bending was in order. It's the same the other side of the lower fan if you use the lower hd cage...perhaps I should have removed the lower fan altogether..

Yeah, I've removed the bottom fan as there was no way I could use it with my Tagan plus with the hard drives the other side. I find the psu fan is capable enough to provide decent airflow through there. Thanks for the heads up though
