I'm think of getting one of these cases for a ITX build.
I had a spare Cooler Master GM 550 but unfortunately it fails the following requirement :-

You can find this on the specifications tab of the cougar website here
http://www.cougargaming.com/products/pc_case/cougar_qbx.html

i.e. Its Kettle lead connector is the upside down wrong way round

The Cougar QBX also has thew requirement of:
PSU -PS2 ATX Type (up to 140mm long)

I have been searching the net but I cannot find any list of compatible PSU's

Does anyone know Or suggest a suitable PSU (Modular)
Specs are
i5 3350p
CM seidon AIO
16GB RAM
128GB SSD
HDD 1TB
HD 7970 GHZ version (Soon to be replace with 970 Or a Fury Nano)

Thanks
 
Corsair seem to have some PSUs with a vertical socket like that, shame their cheaper PSUs aren't so good quality. But you don't have many options so it should suffice.
 
This is what is putting me off from buying one, I'm not sure either on the psu compatibility. I think your best bet is with the SFX size PSUs? Don't quote me on that though :/
 
I thought this was a great little case, but this design implication has severely limited the case's potential. Have you tried contacting Cougar directly? They really need to provide a list rather than expect the customer to do the homework.

Edit: looks like I've found a power supply range that will fit

I should reiterate this is purely only to help people looking to buy this case. Cougar should take note and address this issue ASAP.
