PC Case Sharkoon AK3 Midi Tower Black

The Sharkoon AK3 Midi Tower in black combines a minimalist exterior with practical airflow-focused design and flexible hardware support. It features an air-permeable front panel, space for large graphics cards and cooling components, and multiple modern front I/O options. Two 120 mm fans are pre-installed and the interior supports up to eleven fans and dual radiators up to 360 mm, making the case suitable for gaming, office or multimedia PC builds.

Advantages

The air-permeable front panel promotes efficient intake airflow. Two 120 mm fans are pre-installed to provide immediate basic cooling. The interior accommodates large components — graphics cards up to 410 mm, CPU coolers up to 170 mm high and power supplies up to 235 mm long — and offers mounting for up to two 3.5" HDDs or four 2.5" SSDs. The AK3 supports multiple motherboard form factors including Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, ATX and many BTF layouts, and provides modern front connections including a TRRS jack and a USB-C port.

Suitable for

• Gaming PC builds requiring large GPU and multi-fan cooling
• Office or multimedia systems needing quiet, well-ventilated enclosures
• Custom water-cooling setups with space for two radiators (up to 360 mm)

How to use

Install the desired motherboard (Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, ATX or compatible BTF) on the internal standoffs, fit the power supply in the PSU area and mount storage drives in the dedicated 3.5" or 2.5" bays. Place the graphics card in the PCIe slot ensuring the total length does not exceed 410 mm, and fit a CPU cooler with a height up to 170 mm. Connect the pre-installed 120 mm fans to the motherboard or fan controller and route cables through the available cutouts for neat airflow. If using liquid cooling, install compatible radiators (up to 360 mm) in the supported mounting positions.

Recommendations

For optimal airflow, keep the front air-permeable panel unobstructed and use a balanced fan configuration (intake at the front, exhaust at the rear/top). When installing large GPUs or dual radiators, verify clearances before final assembly and use cable management to avoid airflow obstructions.
