Exterior


The left side panel features a custom shaped tinted window panel that gives us a peek of the interior without being to revealing.

The right side panel is solid black, both the left and right side panels are held in place by a pair of quick release thumb screws for easy access.

The front panel looks stunning, a lightly brushed metal look to it, with edges that roll around to join smoothly to the side panels. There are two 5.25″ drive bays and below that you’ll find a click-in dust filter mesh for the front fan intakes.

On the top edge you’ll find a reset button, HD audio ports, power button with integrated LED, a pair of USB 3.0 ports and a three speed fan controller (5v, 7v and 12v).

The front cover is removed with easy thanks to a set of push-click clips. Behind it you’ll find a high quality 140mm fan and room for an extra 140mm fan below it.

Around the back we see a pair of thumb screws on the top panel, this allow you to remove it and install fans or radiators in the top of the chassis. There is a 140 fan pre-installed, 4+1 expansion slots and a bottom mounted PSU area.

The top panel features a full length mesh panel that is similar in design to the front panel mesh, perfect for providing airflow for any top mounted cooling.

Not to be left out, the underside of the chassis also features a large dust filter, this one can be slid out from the back for easy maintenance and provides the bottom fan mount and the PSU with clean airflow.
