Inside Twelve Hundred
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

On Figure 9 you have an overall look from the interior of this case. What immediately caught our attention was the fact that all interior parts also got an excellent black paint job, giving a terrific looks to the interior of the case, making it to look like an aluminum case, while it is a steel model.

On the left side panel there is a place for you to install an additional 120-mm fan that doesn’t come with the case. The case comes with a washable air filter for this spot, which is really nice.

Even though you can remove the right side panel, the motherboard tray is permanently attached to the chassis.

This case comes with regular screws for fastening daughter boards to the case. We think a case from this quality should have come with thumbscrews instead. On Figure 11 you can see the two rear 120-mm fans and the expansion slots.

All fans use a standard 4-pin peripheral power connector and thus you can’t monitor their speed.
