Question 1

I own this case how do i make the leds turn on?

Accepted Answer

The led light power must be plugged in on the inside (should be a red cord using data). After that there is a button on the left side of the case near the lower door hinge (left if looking at it from the front. Pressing it will turn on the led and pressing it more will cycle through the colors. Its weird and took me a whole to figure out, it doesn't mention it anywhere in the manual. Good Luck!

Question 2

What type of power supply fits in it? I'm guessing ATX judging by the size, but I want to be sure....

Accepted Answer

It fits the same power supply that fits in a full ATX case. The power supply stands upright  behind the front panel. The only minor issue that I had was connecting the power cables since it's a tight fit after you drop a 11 inch long video card inside. Other than that it works and fits just fine. My case is the MicroATX case not the MicroITX case. I don't think it matters though since it will sit behind the front panel upright. Hope that helps

Question 3

Can I install a 5.25 drive while having 2 120mm fans installed in the top?

Accepted Answer

I was only able to install one of them and on the inside part of the case. There wasn't enough room with a disc drive installed.

Question 4

How big of a heatsink will this case support?

Accepted Answer

It can support a massive heat sink but only if the hard drive cage is removed. I did this and mounted my hd on the bottom instead. If you have more than 2 hard drives you will probably need the hard drive cage and hence no big heat sink. Btw it's better to have fewer internal hd in the case because it's already packed with stuff and there is very little cable management room which hinders airflow. So no hd cage = less heat and more airflow.

Question 5

What type of power supply fits in this case?

Accepted Answer

As far as I can tell, any ATX power unit that meets the form factor requirements would work. If you take note, the form factor listed in the description says, "Micro ATX." That is meaning any power unit you purchase would need to meet the form factor or less, otherwise it would be to large. For example, a huge power unit that is, lets say, 6 in. long x 10 in. wide x 9 in. deep, would not fit.

I hope that answers your question.

Question 6

Does this case do anything to dampen the sound? Can I get a measurement of the sound produced at idle and load with this case?

Accepted Answer

There is no sound dampening measures on this case.  It's quite noisy with my setup because I have 5 120mm fans and 2 80mm fans.  The 120mm fans are always running at 100% making it noisy but not insanely loud.  Aside from the noise this is a great case.

Question 7

I'm guessing the light colors are manageable? (ie: not just white [RGB])

Accepted Answer

Yes, it can be red, green, or blue
