Specs and overview
So yeah, Cubitek Magic Cube cases have an anodized black layer on the outside and inside, while the use of aluminum makes them extremely light weight. The heart of the system consists of the main module, which can house a Micro-ATX, ATX or even E-ATX mainboard.
Cubitek also added two USB 3.0, one eSATA and a pair of audio connectors to the chassis. Since the Magic Cube can easily fit long graphic cards with up to 310 mm length and can be used for high-performance processors, a potent decent sized cooling solution is also possible. CPU coolers with a height of up to 180 mm along with four included fans within the mainboard module guarantee a cool and stable system. Two 2.5 inch hard drives can also be installed on the floor of this module.
As you can see, there's plenty of space even for the longest graphics cards as hey .. there's no HDD bay in the main unit. The separate drive module offers enough space for two 5.25 inch units, while a single slot may also be used for 3.5 inch drives or card readers thanks to the included adapter.
The Cubitek Magic Cube cases differentiate themselves through the different sized HDD modules, as the Magic Cube B210 offers enough space for three 3.5 inch hard drives and a pair of 2.5 inch ones, while the more expensive Magic Cube B211 module can hold up to eight 3.5 inch units and two 2.5 inch drives. Both the drive and storage modules have multiple openings through which one can route all cables back to the main module.
If a separation of all three modules is not wanted, the user may configure the three parts freely by connecting them to each other. One can connect the drive and storage modules, while placing the main unit next to them for example.
