There is enough room for a gargantuan HPTX motherboard which also makes it compatible for EATX, XL-ATX, and standard ATX motherboards. There is plenty of room for up to 14 3.5-inch drives which will be stored inside in detachable bays. If users prefer larger motherboards and add on cards which are longer, they can remove half of these detachable bays to make enough room. PSUs as long as 280 mm, and CPU coolers as tall as 180 mm are supported by the case and up to seven 120 mm fans can be stored at various places to deploy the radiators. More photos below…
