Yes , it will fit the case! Your case has 305mm clearance for graphics cards and the card is roughly 28.5 cm long. As for your psu..
All should be fine , I'm not familiar with the brand , but all seems okay , run it through a power supply calculator including all your other components before you buy just to make sure!

Some are more reliable , I have found the cooler master one to usually always be the closest. Ones like the newegg calculator are sometimes way too high , therefore getting you to buy products and psus from them.

Hi!

I also bought an R9 290 Sapphire Tri-X :D, and for the PSU I was adviced to get an EVGA SuperNova G2 PSU: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-80PLUS-Certified-220-G2-0750-XR/dp/B00IKDETOW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1405318912&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+supernova+750+g2

So I got that one. I was recommended to stay away from brands that are not too well known, I think for the price, the EVGA SuperNova is better than the Fatal1ty one...
