A Closer Look - Outside

The Macube 310P sports an absolutely clean design with a solid, clean metal front and top that is white in our chassis. It is certainly one of the sleekest enclosures out there, and the use of steel panels is quite the nice touch, especially for the price point.


Looking at the front, there is not much to see besides the Gamer Storm logo on the bottom half. You may pull the cover off to reveal fan-mounting positions that allow for up to three 120 mm fans or a 360 mm radiator in the front. While there is no dust filter, the air intakes on the side of the front panel do come with that additional layer of protection. Looking at the rear, the Macube 310P looks pretty traditional with the bottom-mounted PSU bay.


The main side of the chassis is essentially a tempered glass panel without a tint, so you should be able to see all your hardware clearly. It is held in place by magnets and comes with a long grip bar on the top, so you can pull the panel off easily. On the opposite side is a solid, white steel panel with a lip at the end. This one is held in place with the same magnetic mechanism. Overall, this is great, but I would have loved to see stronger magnets, especially on the steel side of the Macube 310P, as it kept popping off fairly easily with the system assembled.


In the back, the bottom PSU bay comes with two sets of mounting holes for the utmost flexibility. Above the PSU bay are the seven expansion slots with reusable covers. Deepcool put an additional cover on these to close the gap that some cases have in the back when the expansion slot screws are on the outside as opposed to the inside of the chassis. In the very top, you will find a 120 mm fan set to push hot air out the back of the enclosure.


A pretty cool-looking air vent has been punched into the steel top cover, which you may remove to reveal another 3x 120 mm fan or 360 mm radiator placement opportunity. You may also opt to mount two 140 mm fans or a 280 mm radiator here instead. The chassis ships with the usual audio I/O as well as green USB 3.0 ports, which is a nice visual touch, actually!


The underside has a basic metal mesh filter on the bottom to protect the PSU from dust and grime. I would have loved to see one that can be pulled out the back without having to tip over your whole system.
