Interior


The side panels are both heavily ventilated, on the interior of both the left and right side panels there is a magnetic mesh filter that makes for super quick maintenance.

The motherboard is mounted flat on top of the PSU bay, there is a large cut-out with a little clearance that should help prevent any CPU cooler mounting kits conflicting with the chassis.

Removing the top panel reveals a 5.25″ drive bay bracket, below which you’ll notice a large clearance that allows for airflow from the front fans to reach all major components.

Here we see two 120mm fan mounts, although you could also fit a slim 240mm radiator here if you wish. Corsair have included a single 120mm fan mounted as an exhaust.

Around the back you’ll find access to four hard drive bays, the top two support 2.5″ drives, while the bottom two support either 3.5″ or 2.5″ drives.

All four hard drive bays are tool free, allowing for quick and easy installation / removal.

The dust filter for the PSU slides out from the back, making it very easy to maintain.

The removable PSU bracket is designed to be screwed to the PSU before installation, behind this you’ll also notice that there are four rubber pads that will help reduce vibration from the PSU.

The 5.25″ drive bay is completely removable, allowing great flexibility for those who require the extra space.

With it removed, there is a huge amount of space behind the front panel, which could prove handy for those wishing to mod the case to support a water cooling reservoir.

The front panel folds down and can be easily lifted out.

There is a clip-in washable dust filter that helps provide clean air to the front intake fan.

The front fan mount support a single 120mm, 140mm or 180mm fan, however you will find a pre-installed 140mm fan and a removable 140mm metal mesh on the back to prevent cables getting caught in the blades.
