Question 1

what size expansion slot does this case use?

Accepted Answer

I did not use any of the expansion slots for my application, but my perception is that a low profile card is needed.  There was not sufficient room to use more than the standard size cpu cooler as well.  The unit is a tight fit, but it has worked very well.  We have 4 of them at this point and plan to have 3 to 4 more.  I like that the price has come down some.

Question 2

Does this product use a standard psu?

Accepted Answer

The power supply number is Antec MT-352.  You can read about it on their website.  It is not a 'standard' supply as far as form factor goes, but it provides all of the connections you need.  It is also available from various retailers.  There might be someone else who makes a similar version, I do not know.

Question 3

Can I use a 9.6 x 9.6 matx motherboard with this box?

Accepted Answer

This case uses the MicroATX sizing standard and mounting.  I use an Asus B350M mobo in it which is 9.6 x 9.5 and it has plenty of room, so 1/10 inch more should not be a problem.

Question 4

Would I need to use a low-profile graphics card with this case? Or could a full height card fit?

Accepted Answer

Only half height cards are supported. Yes, a low profile card is required.

Question 5

I saw the USBs are blue that correspond to USB 3.0; may you confirm what kind of USB are them, please?

Accepted Answer

ypu can plug them in 2.0 or 3.0 whichever you want. it is a little tight when i put in a hybrid drive and was unable to use 3.0 cable due to space constraints.

Question 6

does it have 4 Pin or 8 Pin CPU power support?

Accepted Answer

The included power supply only provides 4 pin CPU power.  The 4 pin plug can be used to power an 8 pin CPU plug (I do this with an ASUS B350M and a Ryzen 5 APU) but is not recommended.  The 4 pin plugs into one side of the 8 pin port and seems to power the CPU fine.  Otherwise you can purchase a 4 pin to 8 pin adapter or a different power supply.

Question 7

is there really only 1 3.5" internal bay? couldn't I squeeze in a 3.5" HDD and a 2.5" SSD also? I need the 3.5" external bay for a card reader and the 5.5" external bay for a ODD.

Accepted Answer

yes i did the same thing, a little tight, and you cannot use the 3.0 usb due to it interfering with ssd hybrid drive. had to use 2.0 cable for front usb's. a little tight in there but it now works fine!.........jim

Question 8

how many liters is this case?

Accepted Answer

Including the case itself, it is 13.4 liters.  I don't know how much of that is displaced by the case structure; most likely several liters, leaving the air content of the case nearer to 10-11 liters.
