PSU for Antec P280

[Hyzepher]

I'm looking for a modular PSU 650w/750w that will fir into a P280 without the need for extension cables - assuming mobo connectors will route behind back of case.

Any ideas, anyone had experience with this?

my AX-850 8-pin connectors was too short to route round the back. So it's routed between the motherboard and the motherboard tray. So you will want over 600mm cable length on the 8 pin connector. And that's with the PSU oriented the right way (fan at the bottom). Inverting the PSU will also require longer cable length.

As for the rest, length is OK, although the HDD power cable are also a stretch (AX850 SATA power cable 4 slots is 400mm+150mm+150mm+150mm long).

In all honesty, I think any power supply will struggle with cable length. But something like 650mm 8-pin connector length will be ok. Else you will have to be creative with routing, or use an extension.

ok thanks - I think extensions are probably the way to go
