Power and reset buttons, 2 × USB 3.0, 1 × USB Type-C, audio jack

The Type-C speed is not stated by the manufacturer; the motherboard needs a matching internal USB-C header.

Dust filters and cablingFront and PSU filters; 29 mm cable routing space Fractal Design—
Warranty2 years Fractal Design—
Case type—Dual-chamber tower case; steel, aluminium and tempered glass

The second chamber separates the power supply and cables from the main chamber, so only the components show behind the glass.

Lian Li
Glass panels—4 mm tempered glass on the front and side, 3 mm on top; three glass sides without corner pillars

The pillarless joint gives an uninterrupted view inside; because the front is glass there is no front intake, so air comes in from the side and bottom.

Lian Li
Dimensions—480 × 304 × 464.5 mm (D × W × H) Lian Li
Component clearance—Graphics card up to 430 mm; CPU cooler up to 174 mm; ATX power supply up to 232 mm

Large triple-slot graphics cards and long power supplies fit; the cooler height suits most large dual-tower air coolers.

Lian Li
Fan positions—Side 3 × 120 or 2 × 140 mm; bottom 3 × 120 or 3 × 140 mm; rear 1–2 × 120 mm; up to 8 fans (11 with push-pull); no fans included

Fans must be bought separately; a typical layout pulls air in from the bottom and side and exhausts at the rear.

Lian Li
Storage—3 × 2.5-inch behind the motherboard tray; cage for 2 × 3.5-inch or 2 × 2.5-inch (5 in total) Lian Li
Expansion and vertical GPU—6+1 expansion slots; optional VG4-5 vertical GPU kit (up to 4-slot cards, with PCIe 5.0 riser cable)

The vertical kit is not in the box; it is bought separately to show the card facing the glass.
