Specifications
So as stated we will be reviewing the version with a see-through side panel. Obviously if you need something closed or like that tiny bit of extra noise dampening, you should opt for the closed version. The Define Nano S is an ITX case that features compatibility with high end, full-size components, superior sound dampening, and an ATX-like layout but for ITX obviously. The case includes two Dynamic Series fans with both bottom and front intakes protected by easy-to-clean, removable dust filters.With its mounting capabilities for radiators and proper airflow path, the Define Nano S can cool enthusiast class components.
The chassis is fitted with ModuVent technology on the top vents and sound dampening throughout, the Define Nano S can run a powerful system.
