A Closer Look - Inside


To gain access to the interior, simply remove the thumbscrews holding each panel in place. The interior lacks any visible 3.5" drive bays and sports a single 5.25" variant for the external opening. Looking at the motherboard tray from behind, there are two simple openings at its top edge, but only one large, partially covered opening along its left edge. While this will allow for some interesting cable routing, it also means that you will have to route elements like audio all the way across the motherboard.


There are a total of four SSD mounting positions, but Rosewill only provides two trays. These are on the backside of the motherboard tray by default, but may be moved to the top of the shroud on the floor of the chassis interior instead.


Looking at the front, starting underneath the shroud, there are two plastic drive trays for both 2.5'' or 3.5" drives. If you look closely, you will see the aforementioned mounting holes on the floor of the chassis. Seems like you may install a drive there as well so long as it doesn't get in the way of your PSU.

Above that is a 120 mm intake fan. You may install a radiator of up to 240 mm in size here, but this also means that it will restrict you slightly in terms of graphics card length. In the very top is the lone 5.25" drive bay with a tool-less lock for ease of assembly. The tray for the drive is removable, as you will need the space if you install a radiator into the ceiling of the Rosewill Gram.


In the rear, once again starting below the shroud, you will find the simple but effective PSU bay. The unit rests on four foam spacers as an anti-vibration measure. Above that are the seven expansion slots and the 120 mm fan with blue LEDs.


Taking a quick peek at the ceiling, you can clearly see the simple dust filter. It also comes with appropriate holes to keep it in place, regardless of the installed fan's size.


All the cables within the Gram are of the default variety and come with black sleeving. This means that you should have absolutely no issues when using a modern motherboard. As previously mentioned, there are two 20-pin USB 3.0 connectors - which is something you should keep in mind before making the purchase.
