5. Manutenzione

Una manutenzione regolare aiuta a garantire prestazioni ottimali e longevità dei componenti del PC.

5.1 Pulizia della custodia

• Esterno: Utilizzare un morbido, damp panno per pulire le superfici esterne. Evitare detergenti abrasivi.
• Filtri antipolvere: The case features a magnetic dust filter on the top panel and a removable filter at the bottom for the PSU. Regularly remove and clean these filters by rinsing them with water and allowing them to dry completely before reinstallation.
• Interno: Use compressed air to blow out dust from inside the case, especially from fans and heatsinks. Do this in a well-ventilated area.

5.2 Manutenzione della ventola

Ensure fans are free from dust buildup to maintain optimal airflow and prevent noise. If a fan becomes noisy or stops spinning, check for obstructions or loose connections.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

Questa sezione affronta i problemi più comuni che potresti incontrare.

6.1 Fans Not Spinning or RGB Not Working

• Collegamento elettrico: Ensure all fan power cables (e.g., Molex, 3-pin, 4-pin) are securely connected to the power supply or motherboard fan headers.
• Connessione ARGB: For RGB lighting, verify that the ARGB cables are correctly connected to the case's ARGB controller or your motherboard's 3-pin 5V ARGB header. Some Molex connectors for RGB might have an unconnected 3-pin wire that needs to be removed for the RGB to function.
• Impostazioni della scheda madre: If using motherboard software for RGB control, ensure the software is installed and configured correctly. Check BIOS/UEFI settings for fan control.

6.2 Scarso flusso d'aria o temperature elevate

• Accumulo di polvere: Pulire tutti i filtri antipolvere e i componenti interni come descritto nella sezione Manutenzione.
• Orientamento della ventola: Assicurarsi che le ventole siano orientate correttamente per un flusso d'aria ottimale (le ventole anteriori solitamente aspirano, quelle posteriori/superiori espellono).
• Gestione dei cavi: Poor cable management can obstruct airflow. Reorganize cables to improve air circulation.

6.3 Components Not Fitting

• Controllare le dimensioni: Refer to the Specifications section and Figure 3.2 to confirm component compatibility with the case's maximum dimensions for GPU, CPU cooler, and PSU.
• Re-evaluate Installation: Ensure components are aligned correctly and not obstructed by other parts or cables.
