The Bottom Air Intake
There are intake vents at the bottom of the case right under the HDD chamber. Fresh cool air will flow through the vents through the hard drives, and then flow into the motherboard chamber and exhaust by the two 120mm TriCool fans. Note: Do not place the NSK2480 on a soft surface or over anything that will block the bottom air vents.
The Upper Air Intake
There are vents on the top panel above the PCI expansion slots. Fresh air will flow through them into the motherboard chamber to cool the VGA card.
Note: Do not place anything on top of the NSK2480 that will block the top air vents
The Rear Air Intake
There are vents right above the rear I/O panel and on the PCI expansion slot covers to bring in fresh air to help cool the CPU and VGA card.
CPU Air Guide
The CPU Air Guide and rear air intake work together to provide fresh air to the CPU cooler to enhance the CPU cooling. The CPU Air Guide consists of several sections that can be adjusted to best suit each individual motherboard
CPU position.
The Power Supply Air Intake
There are vents on the left side of the case to bring fresh air into the power supply chamber to cool the power supply.
Note: Please leave at least 1” (2.5cm) between the left side of the case and
