INSTALLATION
The first thing you will want to do before you begin installing your components is removing the side panel (duh), then take out the removable motherboard tray. Four thumbscrews hold it in place. You then need to install the included brass motherboard stand-offs in the locations on the motherboard plate to match your motherboard. It is so much easier to mount and put the components on the motherboard when a case has a slide out tray.

Next you will need to remove the lower hard drive rack. Its pretty easy to do with just 3 thumbscrews holding it in place. The reason it has to be removed is your hard drive(s) are mounted vertically instead of horizontally as you normally see. This is one of the innovations Kingwin uses to allow this case to hold so many drives.

One of the other nice things I saw about how the case was designed is it uses an easy disconnect wire harness for the connection between your motherboard and the front power and reset switches. They also use one of these harness for the two USB ports that connect to your motherboard. And the case comes with a special PCI slot cover for the USB, Firewire, and audio cables that connect to the back of your motherboard.


Finally, the motherboard tray is slid back into the case and all of the cables are connected.



Isn't she pretty? Based on the top view picture, this case is begging for me to do a window mod to my CDRW.
