The Build

Since I missed it on my first round of photos, included in the box is a ten port RGB hub for the lighting. This is awesome, as it even comes with a built-in controller, as well as a remote control for changing the colours and effects. Now, let’s install it!

The chassis went together incredibly easy, better than any previous GAMEMAX chassis we’ve built. There’s loads of room in here, with ample space around the motherboard to accommodate great cable management, additional cooling support and much more.

Obviously, there’s room for a multi-GPU configuration, and wider cards shouldn’t have an issue either. I do wish there was a verticle cable pass-through for the GPU, but it’s hardly a deal breaker.

Above the CPU cooler and the motherboard, there’s far more room than I anticipated. Of course, that’s great news for those mounting radiators in the top, so long as you stick with slim radiators of course.

Airflow in the chassis is impressive. Of course, that’s no surprise given that there are three 120mm fans providing a vast wall of air throughout.

The build looks super clean, and the cable routing is doing a great job of keeping it that way. With the glass back in place, the interior of the chassis is perfect for showing off your LED lighting. Of course, with three RGB fans in the front, it looks great from every other angle too.
