Questions about this item

Will a 360 mm radiator fit in the front alongside a long graphics card?

The front supports radiators up to 360 mm, but maximum GPU length drops to 341 mm when a front fan is installed; removing that fan restores 360 mm clearance.

Can I install a 240 mm radiator in the top and still use a full-length GPU?

Yes, the top radiator limit is 240 mm and does not affect the 360 mm GPU clearance when the front fan is removed.

How many 2.5 inch SSDs can I mount without extra brackets?

Two trays are included and four total positions are available, so you can mount up to four SSDs using the standard locations.
