Question 1

Does the placement of the 3.5" drives affect their temperature?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the placement of the 3.5" drives may affect their temperature due to layout and heat issues.

Question 2

Does this case have room for a 5.25" optical drive?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this case includes two 5.25-inch drive bays.

Question 3

Any power, HDD or LAN LED's?  Thanks, John

Accepted Answer

The power button has an LED embedded in it, but that is the only one on the case

Question 4

The specification says it only fits EATX boards up to 280mm. Is this true, or could you possible fit a larger board in with some effort?

Accepted Answer

The specification states that the case accommodates E-ATX motherboards up to 280 mm. It does not provide information about fitting larger boards.

Question 5

The specification says it only fits EATX boards up to 280mm. Is this true, or could you possible fit a larger board in with some effort?

Accepted Answer

The specification states that the case accommodates E-ATX motherboards up to 280 mm.

Question 6

The specification says it only fits EATX boards up to 280mm. Is this true, or could you possible fit a larger board in with some effort?

Accepted Answer

EATX is 12x13in (30.48cm x 33.02cm)
ATX is 12x9.6in (30.47cm x 24.38cm)
There is a drive bay mount (12x5in)that is in the way that sticks up about 1/2 an inch higher than the mount that the motherboard sits. so unless you saw it out *(which is doable) then no way an EATX will fit. and if you did saw it out, it would not ground on that side of the board. so not really practical

Question 7

The specification says it only fits EATX boards up to 280mm. Is this true, or could you possible fit a larger board in with some effort?

Accepted Answer

The specification states that the case accommodates E-ATX motherboards up to 280 mm.

Question 8

The specification says that it only fits EATX boards up to 280mm. Is there really no extra room in the case, or could a larger board fit with some effort?

Accepted Answer

The case accommodates E-ATX motherboards up to 280 mm. This specification indicates the maximum supported size for E-ATX motherboards, so attempting to fit a larger board would likely encounter difficulties and is not recommended according to the manufacturer’s provided details.

Question 9

It says EATX up to 280mm, is it possible to squeeze a larger board in or is there really just no more room in the case?

Accepted Answer

The case accommodates E-ATX motherboards up to 280 mm, and there is no indication that a larger board would fit. The design constraints suggest that a motherboard larger than 280 mm would not have sufficient room.

Question 10

Can I put a 360 aio in it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can install a 360mm AIO radiator in this case. The front panel supports a 360mm radiator.
