Considering you're looking at this article, there's a good chance you're familiar with our RMx SHIFT PSUs and their cable connections on the side. While this sounds minor, this is hugely convenient for the PC building process, as you no longer have to deal with a cramped space when inserting connectors into the PSU. If you ever upgrade your components such as GPU and need to swap or add another cable, then this makes the upgrade process way smoother.
To verify that your case is compatible with an RMx SHIFT PSU, follow these steps:
We'll use the Fractal Design North as an example.
Based on its specifications, we can see that it is 8.46"/~215mm wide. With just ~5mm to work with, it will be a tight fit but does meet our requirement.
Next, you'll want to check the case's images. We can see that the PSU would be accessible from the side, where the RMx SHIFT's cables will protrude.

As you can see - some simple checks will verify the RMx SHIFT's case compatibility. Simply check your case's specs and PSU accessibility. Another example we'll provide is the RMx SHIFT in the Phanteks Eclipse P400A, which is also 210mm wide and has side accessibility to the PSU.
