On the top side we see a very decent mesh which helps with ventilation, and the Core 3300 comes with a 140mm fan installed there at the backside. Again, it can be fan controlled by a fan controller or your motherboard. Obviously you can go nuts with other fans here as well as installing a LCS (liquid cooling system) radiator. A 240mm radiator would be a easy to install in there, though space wise... you might want to opt a big-tower instead of a mid tower. But hey, with all the funky LCS kits available these days, the sky is the limit.

Front panel connectors: You'll have the basics here including MIC/Headphones, two USB 3.0, lacking is a Firewire connector. Also here we have a power on/off button and reset switch as well as small activity LEDs.

Below the front pabel we spot two 5.25" drive bays. The entire front panel is removable with clip on fan slots. Internals then. The photos are pretty dark, so bare with me. First impression, you get quite a bit of room to work in for a mid sized tower. The second thought would be the all black design, that looks good in contrast with the white elements, including cables and connectors.

Check out the vertical HDD bracket, it can hold three 3.5" drives and three 2.5" drives, there is no physical 'bay' for storage though.
