Question 1

Do the red LED lights come preinstalled or do they come with the case but you have to install them?

Accepted Answer

Pre-installed. You just have to plug them into the MB.

Question 2

Is this case capable of supporting a liquid cooling system/radiator combo?

Accepted Answer

Yes I believe so. This case has a ton of spaces for running fans, radiators, and cooling units. If you choose to utilize a stand alone cooling unit outside of the case it does have the rubber grommets in the rear to facilitate hoses going into and out of the case. There. Is also a ton of room to install a radiator at the top or the back of the case. I am currently using Enermax radiator in a push/pull configuration on aN Intel 4790k processor and it cools well.

Question 3

What size hard drive can fit in this case?

Accepted Answer

There are several YouTube videos that show hardware installation.

Note, get 2.5" mounts for a 3.5" cage to mount a 2.5" drive in the 3.5" cage slots.

Question 4

will this fit an Asus Radeon R9 380 2GB Video Card?
(16 x 3.5 x 9.2)

Accepted Answer

I just did a rough measurement and it will fit since the internal drives face out.  There is a ton of room in it and should give you a couple inches on side and back.  Mine has 10 hard drives, a raid card and an hd 6850.

Question 5

Will a mini itx motherboard work with this case?

Accepted Answer

I don't believe it would fit, but I could be wrong. I have an ATX motherboard which fit the pins in it perfectly, so unless the mini ATX has standard ATX compatibility I don't think it would fit.

Question 6

Are the fan cables really that short :(?

Also, how's the cooling without any additional fans?

Thanks

Accepted Answer

I had no trouble hooking up all the cables.  Cooling appears to be adequate without any additional fans.
I built this computer as a gamer.  Not too crazy, but powerful enough to run any game out there.  So unless you are going to build a wild and crazy machine, this case will work just fine.  I am happy with mine.

Question 7

how many pins are the back fan, and the font fan, and are both the front fans powered by one wire? or is there a way i power both with one wire?

Accepted Answer

Both the front and back fans have 3 pin connectors. The front fans have separate connectors. I used a Y cable to connect the front fans together. Hope this helps.

Question 8

Okay I need to know what size of fans the top part of this case will work with? I know it says 23/20cm monster fan, but not finding that standard on Newegg. Is it 120mm,80mm, like what ones would fit at the top?

Accepted Answer

a 23cm or 20cm fan is needed. To convert cm to mm multiply by 10. A 20cm fan is the same thing as a 200mm fan. Got it?  :) There are currently 52 of them listed on New Egg. I used the Cooler Master MegaFlow 200. And it has been running for almost 2 years just fine.

Question 9

I am completely new to PC builds and this will be my first attempt (switching from console to PC). So I apologize ahead of time if I come across newbish. However, I am wanting to use a i5-6600k CPU, MSI z170 Gaming M5 mobo and Cooler Master evo212 for cooling alongside a MSI GeForce GTX970 with Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB ram. Oh and a Corsair RM750 PSU. I was wondering if that all will fit inside of this case?? Main concern was the EVO212 clearance? Second concern was if the pre-installed fans would be adequate for this build? Any help would be MUCH appreciated or just some good tips before I drop the cash lol. Thanks in advance and if I'm completely in left field and these components just wouldn't mesh up at all I would love to know. Thanks again guys, much love, Mike

Accepted Answer

I currently am using the 212 evo and it does fit well so you dont need to worry about that part, all of your parts will fit in this case it is very large for a mid tower. However I would suggest buying a fan for the top too though, the front fans do good but that top fan gives it some extra cooling.

Question 10

Does this case fit a EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply and a SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R9 390?

Accepted Answer

I do not see why it would not fix your power supply. And the Drive Bays are removable so you should not have a problem with the length of your GPU.

I have a GTX 660TI which has plenty of room in the case if you want to use that as a size reference.
