    It should. I believe both follow the standard size requirements. The PSU will go on the bottom, upside down. You can see the screw holes and align them in your head.

    Of course it will. :)  That's the whole point of standards like PC AT, ATX and BTX, standardised parts are built to conform to specific dimensions.  By the way, even though newegg call that case an ATX case it's really a BTX case due the PSU being on the bottom.

    I have a CM storm scout case which looks very similar to that one, there is a grill in the bottom of the case so you can mount the PS normally and not obstruct the fan.
