Setup Guide
Follow these steps to assemble your computer components within the Heritage PRO chassis.
1. Preparing the Chassis
Before installation, ensure the chassis is placed on a stable, flat surface. Remove the side panels by unscrewing the thumb screws at the rear of the case and gently sliding them off.
2. Motherboard Installation
The Heritage PRO supports Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. Align your motherboard with the standoffs inside the chassis. Secure the motherboard using the provided screws. Ensure the I/O shield is properly seated in the rear opening.
3. Power Supply Unit (PSU) Installation
This chassis supports ATX PSUs. Install your power supply into the designated bottom mount area. Secure it with screws from the rear of the chassis. Route the necessary power cables through the cable management cutouts.
4. Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) Installation
The Heritage PRO can accommodate GPUs up to 400mm in length, supporting RTX 40 Series GPUs. Remove the necessary PCIe slot covers at the rear. Insert your GPU into the PCIe slot on the motherboard and secure it with screws.
5. Cooling System Installation
The chassis includes 4 x 120mm fans for optimal airflow. Additional cooling options include support for a 360mm AIO liquid cooler. Install fans and radiators in their respective mounting positions (front, top, rear, or bottom) as per your cooling configuration.

6. Storage Drive Installation
Install your 2.5-inch SSDs or 3.5-inch HDDs into the designated drive bays. Secure them with the appropriate screws.
7. Cable Management
Utilize the cable routing cutouts and tie-down points behind the motherboard tray to manage cables. This improves airflow and aesthetics.
8. Reassembling the Chassis
Once all components are installed and cables are managed, carefully reattach the side panels and secure them with the thumb screws.
Operating Instructions
After successful assembly, connect your peripherals and power cable to the system. Press the power button on the front I/O panel to turn on your computer. The system status indicator will illuminate.
To power off, initiate a shutdown from your operating system. For a forced shutdown, press and hold the power button for several seconds.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your chassis.
- Dust Filters: The Heritage PRO features magnetic dust filters. Regularly remove and clean these filters to prevent dust buildup and maintain optimal airflow. Gently brush or rinse them with water (ensure they are completely dry before reinstallation).
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces, including the leather and metal parts, with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks on metal, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Internal Cleaning: Periodically use compressed air to clear dust from internal components and fans. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before performing internal cleaning.
