Tempered glass side panel and refined styling
A light-tinted tempered glass left panel and laser-etched aluminum badge give it a contemporary look without sacrificing airflow or visibility.
AIO-ready with 360 mm radiator bays
It supports up to 360 mm radiators in both the front and top positions, making it ideal for liquid-cooled builds.
