Questions about this item

Will my existing ATX power supply fit the bottom-mount layout with the two 3.5" drive trays installed?

The case accepts ATX power supplies up to 290 mm with one 3.5" tray and 175 mm with both trays in place, so measure your unit against those limits.

How can I confirm the three pre-installed 140 mm Momentum 14 fans are running correctly after I build?

Connect the fan headers to the motherboard, then verify RPM readings in BIOS or fan-control software; the fans should spin up and report speeds without manual configuration.

What comes in the box and which items such as a power supply or extra storage drives must be purchased separately?

The package includes the case, three 140 mm Momentum 14 RGB fans, tempered glass side panel, cable grommets, straps and mounting hardware; a power supply, drives and any additional fans are not included.
