How to use

Mount storage drives in the 2.5" or 3.5" bays and connect front-panel I/O to the motherboard headers. Use the tool-free front and side panels to access the interior during component installation or maintenance. Add optional 120 mm or 140 mm fans in available mounts if additional cooling is required.

Recommendations

For optimal airflow, maintain unobstructed front intake by keeping cable routing tidy and installing additional fans if you use high-power components. Ensure the PSU length and GPU clearance are compatible with the case dimensions before final assembly.
