Product Showcase - Interior

Once we strip away the glass panels with four flat thumbscrews each, we can have a look at the interior. You will notice that the design is a bit different from what we are used to with that bottom compartment and see through design. You can install SSD/HDDs in the backside. There is plenty reach and space to access the motherboard and you can fit pretty big components. The 570X supports Graphic Cards up to 370 mm and for the CPU cooler up to 1170 mm (CPU Die Surface to Side Panel).

The glass is mounted to rubberized risers/standoffs. These can actually move a little, which was done deliberately as glass should never be mounted under stress as you'd get friction on the material, so that was done very wisely.

At the frontside the three 120 mm RGB LED enabled fans as well as a good view of the grommet holes (rubberized). A massive motherboard cutout plate is there as well so you can easily change / swap / switch the CPU cooler.

At the rear you can see a big mesh for a 120 mm fan, up to 240 mm rads are recommended. Airflow, is pretty terrific thanks to the strong intake fans and airflow gaps in-between the glass panels. Cable routing is a problem but not easy either with this chassis that has glass everywhere.

Located just under the rear fan we spot 7 PCI card slots and all the way at the bottom space for a power supply. There are several grommet holes as well with rubber inlays and a HUGE gaping holes so you can work properly at the backside on your motherboard to mount new cooling solutions.

Here you can spot the PSU compartment, it can be up-to 225 mm in length. Since you have glass everywhere you can see all cabling. the PSU compartment was designed in such a manner that you can hid excess cables in there hence is size. Up top a nice vent.
