How to use

Install the motherboard according to its form factor inside the case and secure it to the mounting standoffs. Fit storage devices into the available 2.5" or 3.5" bays and connect power and data cables to the power supply and motherboard. Plan cooling by selecting compatible fan sizes (120 mm, 140 mm or 185 mm) for intake and exhaust positions; route cables to maintain airflow. Connect front-panel USB ports to the appropriate headers on the motherboard and verify all power connections before first boot.

Recommendations

For optimal thermal performance, combine front intake fans with rear or top exhaust fans using matching or complementary sizes. Secure cabling behind the motherboard tray where possible to preserve unobstructed airflow. When installing high-power graphics cards or large cooling solutions, confirm clearance against the case depth and internal drive cages.
