Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter. For more complex problems, refer to your individual component manuals or contact Montech support.

System Not Powering On

  • Ensure the PSU switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify all power cables (24-pin ATX, CPU, GPU) are securely connected to the motherboard and components.
  • Check that the front panel power button cable is correctly connected to the motherboard's F-Panel header.

Fans Not Spinning or RGB Not Working

  • Confirm that the fan PWM cables are connected to appropriate fan headers on the motherboard.
  • Ensure the ARGB cables are connected to a 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard, not a 4-pin 12V RGB header. Incorrect connection can damage LEDs.
  • Check your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings and RGB software to ensure fans and lighting are enabled and configured correctly.

Poor Airflow or High Temperatures

  • Clean all dust filters and mesh panels regularly.
  • Verify that fans are oriented correctly for optimal airflow (intake at front/bottom, exhaust at rear/top).
  • Ensure no cables are obstructing airflow paths inside the case.
