Question 1

Does this case come with the screws to mount the hard drives in the bays? Or do I have to Buy screws?

Accepted Answer

Hah!  After buying screws myself, I found the missing hardware to be packed in a black cardboard box beneath the bottom drive bay!

Question 2

does this computer case have a side window.?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately it does not have a window, it just has what you see in the photo which is the mesh screen with a HUGE 230mm mounted to that mesh screen. Has 6x Fans total that are speed control

This case is bad ass! I don't know about now but, when I ordered mine back in September it came with a bundle that included 1000 W power supply which also has a fan and and a portable battery pack that charges mobile divices.

Question 3

Do the fans that come with this case plug in to the motherboard or do they operate independently? My main question is do i need a bunch of fan ports on my motherboard?

Accepted Answer

Nathan,
     They plug into the motherboard, but the top two and the front two are on one plug a piece also the plugs can stack on each other so the amount of plug issue isn't a real problem I would assume unless u had a mini tax or a micro atx motherboard but if u had either of those why would u buy this case. :/ But if ur looking for a recommendation u have mine.

Question 4

What are the actual dimensions of the case? I see some numbers in the specs but is that  the box size? If so, can someone please measure this thing from the ground up including the feet? I have a desk it will go under and alittle room to work with.   Thanks!

Accepted Answer

Kevin the case measurement is: 24.5" high(including feet)
                                               
                                                23" long

9.25" wide

Question 5

graphic card size?

Accepted Answer

That technically depends on the motherboard you're after. I'm currently using a "Z87-GD65" motherboard with a "GTX 780 Ti" graphics card. Fits perfect too. I would like to give you the link to each but for some bizarre reason this forum accuses my hyperlinks of being telephone numbers and prevents me from posting them. So I'll just give you the full description of each for you to look up. They were both purchased on this site.

=MOTHERBOARD=
MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Extreme OC High Performance Triple CFX/ SLI Intel Motherboard

=GRAPHICS CARD=
EVGA 03G-P4-2884-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support w/EVGA ACX Cooler Video Card

Question 6

Hi, is this case compatible with Asus Z97-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard and Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM CPU Cooler please?
Is Rosewill HIVE Series HIVE-550 550W good engouh for the case please? Thank you very much

Accepted Answer

Yes it will. Any motherboard that's a LGA1150 or LGA1155 will fit. I know for a fact that the cooling unit you mentioned will fit since I own the exact same one. The only problem you may encounter is that you'll need someone to hold the back end of the very bulky cooling unit while you tighten it down on the other end. Be sure you do this part last as it will take up a large area over the board.

As for your recommended power supply; it all depends on how much and how powerful the parts you'll be using. Based off the type of board, cooling unit and tower you have picked out here, I can almost guarantee you'll need at least a 1000W power unit. Get a list of all the parts you're wanting to use and plug it into a wattage calculator online. Just google "power supply calculator" and it will recommend the wattage you will need.

Question 7

How many 120mm fans support slots are there?

Accepted Answer

4 on the side panel, 2 intake, 2 top fan slots, 1 rear exhaust slot and 1 on the bottom irony of the power supply

Question 8

is there a windowed version?

Accepted Answer

The side panel is made of a mesh metal surface, it is also where you 230 mm fan will be mounted to. While it isn't as transparent as a clear plastic wall, you can see internal components. Though I am not sure if that is what you are asking.

In terms of being able to clearly see through to the inside, not 100%, but it still looks good, and preforms well. 100% happy with the case myself.

Question 9

Video says that a 240 mm radiator can go on top. So cooler master seidon 240M would fit on top well then. Or will the vents prevent good airflow to radiator. Or can the vents be removed. Or would you suggest the cooler master 120M or XL so it can be placed at back fan spot instead?

Accepted Answer

I use this case with nothing extra than what came with it in the box, and with everything I'm running, the case stays cold to the touch. I don't know about adding any if the things you're talking about because I haven't had the need to use them. I'm running an 8 core processor and a pretty heavy graphics card. I can run two WoWs on my two separate screens and be using my browser with no sweat at all. I hope I was somewhat helpful. But I'm sure since the case was made for added cooling capabilities, nothing should interfere with anything else.

Question 10

Will this support 3 x 120 mm/w radiator fans topside?

Accepted Answer

I took a look at mine, but I don't think there's enough room for three at the top. I use two radiator fans and it's kind of snug.
