2. Motherboard Installation
The case supports ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards. The ATX standoffs are pre-installed. For other form factors, adjust the standoffs as indicated by the markings on the motherboard tray. Secure the motherboard with the provided screws.
3. Power Supply Unit (PSU) Installation
The PSU is installed in the dedicated compartment at the bottom of the case. Ensure the PSU fan faces downwards for optimal airflow through the bottom mesh filter. The PSU cage can be repositioned for cable management flexibility.

Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off
Press the power button located on the top I/O panel to power on or shut down your system.
2. ARGB Lighting Control
The pre-installed ARGB fans are connected to a controller. Use the dedicated LED button on the top I/O panel to cycle through 21 pre-set lighting effects. Alternatively, connect the controller to your motherboard's 3-pin ARGB header (5V) to synchronize lighting effects via motherboard software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
Maintenance
1. Dust Filter Cleaning
Regularly clean the dust filters to maintain optimal airflow and prevent dust buildup inside the case. The bottom dust filter is easily removable from the rear. The top mesh panel can also be removed for cleaning.
- Slide out the bottom dust filter from the rear.
- Unscrew the top mesh panel from the rear and lift it off.
- Clean the filters using compressed air or by rinsing with water (ensure they are completely dry before reinstallation).
2. General Cleaning
Wipe down the exterior of the case and tempered glass panels with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may scratch the surfaces.
Troubleshooting
- System Not Powering On:
- Ensure all power cables (24-pin ATX, CPU, GPU) are securely connected to the motherboard and components.
- Verify the PSU is switched on at the back.
- Check front panel header connections (Power SW) to the motherboard.
- Fans Not Spinning/RGB Not Working:
- Check fan power connections (PWM) to the motherboard or fan controller.
- Verify ARGB connections (3-pin 5V) to the controller or motherboard.
- Ensure the fan controller is powered via a SATA power connector from the PSU.
- If using motherboard software, ensure it is up-to-date and correctly configured.
- Poor Airflow/High Temperatures:
- Clean all dust filters.
- Verify fan orientation for optimal intake and exhaust (side fans are intake, rear is exhaust).
- Ensure no cables are obstructing airflow paths inside the case.
