Question 1

How can a micro atx motherboard fit into this case?

Accepted Answer

I actually just built a computer with a micro atx mobo in it and it fit very nicely.  Your only issue you will have is the hard drive mounting.  If you are using a full size hdd and not an ssd or laptop size hdd then it will be very tough to fit.  I installed a laptop hdd and an ssd and it fit in the case pretty good.  The only thing I didn't really care for about this case was the wire management.

Question 2

What is the deal with the front ports? When hooked up it appears there is no response from the blue usb port (usb3?) but the white port works fine. Is there something I am missing or do not understand? There is only one connector and looks to be split between the two.

Accepted Answer

There is two connectors, one is strictly fort he usb 3.0 port the other is for usb 2.0. The plug for 3.0'is bigger and usually blue in color. Also be sure you motherboard drivers are installed or else sub 3.0 won't work.

Fyi. I have bought 3 of these cases for budget builds. One case had a bad soldering the little board for sub port, soldered it back and it works fine. Hope this helps

Question 3

can you put 2 x 120mm fans in the front?

Accepted Answer

There is already one fan on the front and a second one should fit just fine. The whole front is open space and the hard drives go on the bottom.  Whether you can fit two fans depends on how many cd drives you have in the top. If you only have 1 or 2 you should be able to fit a second fan easily.

Question 4

how tall of a cpu cooler can i use in this case?

Accepted Answer

The space was large enough to handle most commonly available power supplies.  The case allows for room around most ATXu motherboards to provide head room.

Without a specific model number of a power supply, I can't really be positive.  The one that I used was a 500watt standard sized but I didn't see any reason one of the modular power supplies would have had any problems.

Question 5

Can I put 6 3.5" Hard Drives into this?

Accepted Answer

I know you can put 2 hard drives in it but I'm not sure about six. I have two in mine but have never tried more. Sorry if this doesn't help.

Question 6

Do i need to buy a harddrive mount to be able to install a harddrive from a diffrent case on this one?

Accepted Answer

Unless you are installing a laptop 2.5" hard drive you should not need a mount.  The other situation would be is you are installing a 2.5 SSD drive.  Many will come with a plastic plate that can be attached to the drive and then longer screws will reach the regular mount.

There are mount space for 5.25 and 3.5 standard drives.

Question 7

Will an ATX  motherboard fit in this case?

Accepted Answer

Should with no problem. I have several of these cases. The only thing I eventually didnt like about them is that they only have two 5.25 bays in the front. Other than that it does have a multi-pin plug for usb3 to connect to the motherboard. So, If your getting a motherboard for it then try and get one that has this connector onboard. Otherwise the front blue usb port is useless.

Question 8

Will this case fit a 120mm closed loop radiator for the cpu cooling?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is plenty of room. In fact, I did not know the case came with cooling holes until I opened the box.  The holes are in the rear and you may have or want to remove the factory fan for comfort or place a bigger fan on the inside of case's vented panel.

Question 9

Can you remove the current front fan and put in an LED fan?

Accepted Answer

yes! If im not mistaken the front fan spots are 120mm so any 120mm fans should fit. all you have to do is screw them in.

Question 10

what connector the two fans that are pre-install have?

Accepted Answer

I was curious, too; The connectors have two or three prongs, but are compatible, because late motherboards accept both.
