The bottom of the chassis has four rubber feet mounted, again to prevent resonating noises. We also see a dust filter that can be removed and cleaned underneath the PSU, the gap is there top function as an air intake for the PSU of course.

Here we have the bottom / PSU location. We'd advise regular ATX form factor PSUs but ones that are a tiny bit longer won't be a problem either. The bottom has a dust filter which is accessible at the bottom of the chassis. You can simply pull that out and clean it.

This is the back motherboard tray side of the chassis without the side panel. So we are behind the motherboard, there is decent space for cable routing, not Haf-X spacious but but definitely good enough. It would have been nice to see rubber inserts in the cable holes though.

Should you ever need to replace your CPU cooler, well your chances of NOT removing the motherboard have increased dramatically. Simply take out the right side panel and thanks to that gap in the motherboard tray you can access the backside of the motherboard, which typically holds a back plate for the CPU cooler.
