Assembly

Installing the motherboard is done with the use of spacers and screws. There is plenty of space on top, and well-aligned routing holes on the bottom. As you can see, the RTX 2080 fits well, and you should still be able to liquid-cool without issue even with such a long GPU.


Adding a 2.5" SSD is simple as well. First, remove the tray from the case, fill it by using traditional screws, and put it back into place, securing it with the attached thumb screw. Should you opt to show it off, the drive aligns with the cable-routing hole on the shroud well, but you may simply place it behind the motherboard tray as well.


Installing a 3.5" drive using the included tray is completely tool-less as the drive is held in place by plastic pins. However, go with an very large drive of 8 TB or more and you will have to snip off the center pins and use two screws on the end of the tray to keep it secure. Once filled, simply slide the tray in until it snaps down securely.


The PSU underneath the shroud is held down with traditional screws that are applied through the rear of the chassis. There is plenty of space—you should have no issues using high-capacity units.


With everything installed, the Zalman Z3 Iceberg makes a clean impression on the insides, but also allows for proper cable routing behind the motherboard tray. As you can clearly see by the red zip ties, there are a slew of well-placed locations to tie down any loose cables.


As an alternative to the the air-cooler, we went ahead and installed a 240 mm AIO in the ceiling. It fits well, and there is plenty of room for the motherboard components and heatsinks as well.

Finished Looks

Once turned, you can clearly see the lighting from the rear ARGB fan and the CNPS10X. As the front is essentially solid, the lighting of the fans there is only visible inside the case. A blue LED in the top lets you know that the PC is up and running.

Owing to the built-in controller, you may toggle through various lighting effects and multi-color animations with ease. Naturally, you may also select from the usual set of solid color options seen below.
