5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Fan Speed Control (PWM)

The pre-installed fans are PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controlled, allowing their speed to be adjusted automatically by the motherboard based on system temperature, or manually through motherboard software. This ensures optimal cooling and reduced noise levels.

5.2. ARGB Lighting Control

The Addressable RGB (ARGB) fans offer 16.8 million colors and various lighting effects. If your motherboard supports 5V3PIN ARGB synchronization (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome RGB), you can control the lighting directly through your motherboard's software. Otherwise, a built-in controller may be used (refer to the accessory box for details).

6. Maintenance

6.1. Dust Filter Cleaning

To maintain optimal airflow and prevent dust buildup, regularly clean the dust filters:

  • The top panel features a magnetic dust filter that can be easily removed and cleaned.
  • The bottom panel has a pull-out dust filter for the power supply intake, which can also be removed for cleaning.

6.2. Tempered Glass Cleaning

Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild glass cleaner (or water) to clean the tempered glass panels. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.

7. Troubleshooting

  • Fans not spinning or RGB not lighting up:
    • Check all fan power cables and ARGB cables are securely connected to the fan hub/controller and the motherboard.
    • Ensure the motherboard's 5V3PIN ARGB header is correctly connected if using motherboard sync.
    • Verify that the power supply is providing adequate power.
  • Front I/O ports not working:
    • Confirm that the USB 3.0 and HD Audio cables from the front panel are correctly plugged into the corresponding headers on your motherboard.
  • System not powering on:
    • Double-check the power switch cable connection to the motherboard.
    • Ensure the power supply is switched on and receiving power.
