2. Controllo della ventola

The pre-installed 140mm PWM fans can be controlled via your motherboard's fan headers and BIOS settings, allowing for dynamic speed adjustments based on system temperatures. If your model includes ARGB fans, connect them to a compatible ARGB header on your motherboard or a dedicated controller for lighting effects.

Manutenzione

1. Pulizia

Regular cleaning is essential to maintain optimal airflow and prevent dust buildup. The mesh front panel and top filter are designed for easy removal and cleaning. Gently detach them and use compressed air or a soft brush to remove accumulated dust. Clean the interior of the case periodically with compressed air.
