And to the person asking about the power supply from everything I've researched it will fit. I just didn't see a smaller one that was as highly rated and as cheap
Just check the depth. I bought a full size Fractal case that would not fit my Seasonic 1000 watt PSU.

the node 304 says it supports atx psu. I watched a few builds where other people managed to fit it
i originally had the 600w version of the same but for some reason it was about 15 dollars higher on amazon than the 750w so i just decided to go with it. i checked and the size said it was the same as the 600w, however i just checked again and the 750w is 20mm bigger. So now im back at the 600w version that just dropped about 25 dollars in price from last night.
I just ordered everything so well see how it goes. Ill be posting when I get it when I can't put it together im sure

Yeah, once you hit the 1000W-ish threshold, you start to encounter PSUs that are in the 180mm+ length range, but lower than that it's generally 160mm. ATX size standards apparently don't constrain length too much. The way this Node case is set up, you can either have a PSU longer than 160mm, or a full-length graphics card. Kind of ironic that you'd be forced to use a half-length 150w video card with, say, a 1000W Seasonic.
Fortunately, PCPartPicker has become very intelligent about these things, especially with the more popular/common components. If the Node case is on your part list, it won't even show you PSU options that exceed 160mm, or if you have a longer PSU on your list, the Node won't be a case option (unless you turn off compatibility checks). And it's good about letting you know what dimension/clearance data site doesn't collect or can't find so you know to google it yourself.
