2. Secure the PSU with screws from the rear of the case.

4. Drive Installation (HDD/SSD):

• For 3.5" HDDs: Locate the 3.5" drive bays and slide the drives into place, securing them with screws or tool-less mechanisms if available.
• For 2.5" SSDs/HDDs: Mount the 2.5" drives onto the dedicated mounting points, typically behind the motherboard tray or in specific drive cages, and secure with screws.

5. Graphics Card (GPU) Installation:

1. Remove the necessary PCIe slot covers from the rear of the case.
2. Insert your graphics card into the appropriate PCIe slot on the motherboard.
3. Secure the graphics card to the case with screws. Ensure the GPU length does not exceed 310mm.

6. Cooling System Installation (Fans/Water Cooler):

• Fans: Install 120mm fans in the rear position as needed. Note that fans are not included with this case.
• Water Cooler: If using a water cooler, install a 120mm radiator in the rear or side mounting positions.
• CPU Cooler: Ensure your CPU cooler height does not exceed 160mm.

7. Cable Management:

Route all power and data cables through the designated cutouts and tie-down points behind the motherboard tray to ensure clean aesthetics and optimal airflow.

8. Connect Front Panel Cables:

Connect the front panel cables (USB 3.0, USB 2.0, Audio, Power Switch, Reset Switch, HDD LED, Power LED) to their corresponding headers on your motherboard. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific header locations.

Operating Instructions

Once all components are installed and cables are connected, replace the side panel and secure it with the thumb screws. Connect your peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse) and power cable to the power supply. Press the power button on the front panel to start your system.

The integrated RGB lighting on the front panel will illuminate upon system power-on. Specific control over the RGB lighting, if available, will depend on your motherboard's RGB software or any integrated controller within the case (check for a dedicated button on the front I/O if applicable, though not specified for this model).

Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your PC components.

• Dust Cleaning: Periodically clean dust filters (if present) and the interior of the case using compressed air or a soft brush. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
• Panel Cleaning: Wipe the acrylic side panel and front panel with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may scratch the acrylic.
• Cable Management Check: Occasionally check cable routing to ensure no cables are obstructing airflow or fan operation.

Troubleshooting

• System Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the power supply is properly connected to the wall outlet and the PSU switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify all power cables from the PSU are correctly connected to the motherboard and components.
  • Check that the front panel power switch cable is correctly connected to the motherboard header.
• No Display Output:
  • Confirm your monitor is connected to the graphics card (GPU) output, not the motherboard's integrated graphics output (unless you are using integrated graphics).
  • Reseat the graphics card in its PCIe slot.
• Overheating Issues:
  • Ensure all installed fans are spinning correctly.
  • Verify proper airflow direction (intake/exhaust).
  • Clean any dust buildup from fans and filters.
