I'm not that advanced to get testor's etc but
it makes sense that you would and cool that you
could make your own.

I took more pics because I wanted to see if
the screws lined up etc.

Now that you have the product in hand, you should be
able to compare the faceplate end with the existing
computer cases and check for conflicts.

The biggest screwups I've seen on some supply purchases,
is the ones that were up-side-down, and when installed
into the computer, that fan points to the top of the
computer case. The ones you've got there look conventional
to me, so the fan in the face of the supply will be
facing downward when installed. The screw pattern isn't
square, so you should be able to tell which way it needs
to install so the screw holes line up. (It only fits
properly, one way.)

You can also compare the side view of the PSU, against
the existing install, and get some idea how the cables
will fit, whether the PSU would bump into the optical
drive, and so on. You can do your fitment checks,
double check cable length and so on.
