In the description of the case it says that it supports standard size ATX PSU's and I don't know what that means. What is the size/watt limit of the PSU that I can fit into this case?

It just means the PSU needs to be 140mm (5.5") or less deep.

it will fit any standard sized atx psu it can have any watt limit as long as its not oversized power supply your good

ATX cases fit ATX PSUs

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATX

Physical characteristics

ATX power supplies generally have the dimensions of 150 × 86 × 140 mm (5.9 × 3.4 × 5.5 in)[12]:23–24 and share a common mounting layout of four screws arranged on the back side of the unit. That last dimension, the 140 mm depth, is frequently varied, with depths of 160, 180, 200 and 230 mm used to accommodate higher power or modular connectors.

You could probably get a 1200 watt model in it
But most systems with a single card need 700watt or less, depending on card choice.

Would this fit into the case?

JackNaylorPE · May 25, 2014

The link you provided gives the dimensions as"

5.9" x 6.1" x 3.4"

But as it is a poor quality PSU I would not recommend using it.

That is a terrible power supply. Tier 5 replace as soon as possible. do not use category.

Unolocogringo :

Would you be able to find me a better PSU that could fit into the case? I don't know much about PSU's.

this would be fine http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9
but it depends on what components you have in your computer so it would be good if you list them for us it might not have enough watts to support them

Thank you all for your responses you've really helped me a lot

It should be noted that if you read the product page, it can take PSU's upto 180mm, which would probably be a very tight fit, but a 160mm should work fine.
