Its black tempered glass side panel provides a clear view of internal components while maintaining a streamlined exterior.

Advantages

How to use

Install a Mini-ITX or microATX motherboard on the standoffs, route cables through the dedicated channels behind the motherboard tray, and secure storage drives in the appropriate 2.5" or 3.5" bays. Mount cooling fans in the front, top, rear, or bottom locations depending on your cooling layout; install a 360 mm radiator in the top if using an AIO cooler. Connect front-panel USB and power headers to the motherboard and secure the tempered glass panel after completing component installation.

Recommendations

For best thermal performance, combine the included front 140 mm fans with additional 120 mm fans in the bottom and top positions to create a balanced airflow path: intake at the front and bottom, exhaust through the top and rear. Ensure cables are routed cleanly to maintain unobstructed airflow and visibility through the tempered glass panel.
