Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean dust from the case interior and fan filters using compressed air or a soft brush. Dust buildup can impede airflow and lead to overheating.
• Airflow: Ensure the case has adequate ventilation. Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents.
• Cable Management: Periodically check cable routing to ensure no cables are interfering with fans or obstructing airflow.

Troubleshooting

• System not powering on: Check all power connections, including the power supply to the wall, motherboard 24-pin, and CPU 8-pin connectors. Ensure front panel power switch cable is correctly connected to the motherboard.
• Overheating: Verify that all fans are spinning correctly and are not obstructed. Clean any dust buildup. Ensure proper thermal paste application on the CPU cooler.
• No display: Confirm that your graphics card is properly seated in its PCIe slot and that the monitor cable is securely connected to the graphics card.
• USB ports not working: Check the front panel USB cable connection to the motherboard header.
