Tempered glass all around & sophisticated interior concept

The solid chassis is made of one-millimeter thick SECC steel and is covered with four-millimeter-thick tempered glass elements on the front and side panels. The left side panel is black over the PSU-Shroud to achieve a particularly clean look. This includes a hard drive cage with vibration-insulated carriages for two 3.5- or 2.5-inch drives and the power supply. The HDD cage is easy to remove with a thumbscrew and can then be replaced by pumps or expansion tanks.

For their assembly, a multifunctional adapter is used, which is compatible with most pumps or expansion tanks through numerous slot bores and can be mounted both on and in the PSU Shroud. In addition, it can be screwed to it a 2.5-inch drive. Further mounting options for two 3.5- or 2.5-inch drives can be found behind the mainboard tray, on the black mounting plates, which can be removed without tools for installation. Another white cover is also removable for mounting three 2.5-inch drives and also serves as a cable cover.

The mainboard tray and the cover of the PSU Shroud offer numerous openings for cables, some of which are rubberized and equipped with Velcro straps. 360 or 420 mm radiators can be accommodated in the front and lid of the Alpha housing. In the front, these are mounted on an externally removable bracket, which facilitates assembly. On this or in the lid, three 120- or 140-millimeter fans can also be attached to the oblong holes. In the back is a 120-millimeter model preinstalled. Ventilation openings provided with fine dust filters are located behind the front, in the lid and at the bottom of the housing.

Among the special features of the Midi Tower is also a preparation for the vertical assembly of two graphics cards, in the form of two vertical PCIe slot covers. However, a riser card cable must be ordered separately. Pixel cars may be up to 40 inches long and CPU cooler up to 17 inches high. In addition, the I / O panel housed in the lid, in addition to two USB 3.0 ports, has a modern USB 3.1 Type C port, which can be plugged in on both sides, charges mobile devices very quickly and enables extremely high data transfer rates.
