Exterior
With the case out of the box, it actually looks pretty cool. There’s a huge window on the left side panel, allowing you to show off your build. Of course, this being such an affordable model, it’s a plastic panel, so we’ll leave the protective film on until the build is complete.
The side panel is held in place by four long thumbscrews and rubber grommets in each corner.
The front panel is a really cool design, with a massive section offering up loads of ventilation running the full height of the case. The rest of it, is this angular trim with an ARGB strip integrated into the side of it.
The strip starts at the top of this panel on the right and runs all the way to the bottom.
Plus, all the plastic has been given this 3D carbon fibre textured finish. There’s no other way of putting it, this thing looks bloody cool!
Down the right side, it’s just a simple black metal panel. It’s easily removed via the two thumbscrews at the rear of the case.
Around the back of the case, everything is as you would expect from an ATX case really. There are seven expansion slots, an ATX PSU mount, etc. One thing I do like though is that the rear 120mm fan has elongated screw mounts, allowing for some height adjustment; handy for radiator installations.
Up on the top, you’ll find a large magnetic dust filter.
This space offers up two 120mm fan mounts, and again, it also uses elongated screw holes.
The front I/O is really well equipped, with separate power controls, two audio jacks, two USB 2.0 ports and a USB 3.0 port.
There’s also an RGB control button here, allowing you to change the front panel illumination.
On the bottom, you’ll find four large feet giving is really good ground clearance. Plus, there’s a clip-in dust filter for the PSU; it’s a cheap way to do a filter, but it’ll work just fine.
