Hi everyone in the process of building my first pc.

I have a case similar to the one in the image linked. Also similar in the way the only thing it has to hold up the psu is the screw holes on the back. Do I need to add anything to support it or is this ok. As I do notice it slightly sloping downwards.

It also has the edge of the tray to sit on that covers the usb,esata,audio etc connections on the back. Just under the opening for the psu at the back.

Thanks for reading

What PSU is it? Personally, I'd be a little worried by that. I wouldn't really want the heaviest thing in my rig half-secured atop some very expensive components. Maybe drill a hole underneath the PSU and stick a rod through to help support it?
