Product Information

Full details

The Mars Gaming MC-ART Black ATX Gaming PC Case is designed for creators and PC builders who want to personalize their setup with a unique, artistic flair. Its key benefit is the 'limitless creativity' offered by its drawable front and side panels, illuminated by dynamic RGB lighting. A potential caveat is that the artistic customization relies on the included marker, and replacements would need to be sourced separately.

FAQs

Can I draw on the panels with any marker?

The case includes a white marker for drawing. While other permanent markers might work, they may not be erasable and could potentially damage the panel surface. It is recommended to use the provided marker or similar erasable art markers.

How do I control the ARGB lighting modes?

The ARGB lighting effects are typically controlled via a dedicated button on the case, which cycles through the 12 available modes. Some motherboards may also offer software control if the ARGB headers are connected appropriately.

What type of power supply does this case support?

The Mars Gaming MC-ART case supports standard ATX power supplies.

Can I install a 240mm liquid cooler?

Yes, the case supports 120mm or 240mm liquid cooling radiators, typically mounted at the front.

How many fans can I install in total?

The case comes with one 120mm fan and can accommodate a total of up to six additional fans for enhanced cooling.

What are the dimensions of the case?

The case dimensions are 432 mm (Height) x 188 mm (Width) x 352 mm (Depth).

Does the case come with a white marker?

Yes, the MC-ART case includes one white marker for drawing on the customizable panels.

Troubleshooting

PC will not power on

Ensure the ATX power supply is correctly installed and connected to the wall outlet. Verify that the power button connector is properly attached to the motherboard's front panel header. Check if the power supply switch is in the 'on' position.

RGB lighting not working

Confirm that the ARGB cables from the case are connected to the appropriate motherboard headers (e.g., ARGB_HEADER) or a dedicated ARGB controller. Check if the lighting control button on the case is functioning and cycling through modes. Ensure motherboard lighting software is installed and configured correctly if applicable.

Overheating components

Verify that all installed fans are spinning and oriented correctly for optimal airflow. Ensure no cables are obstructing fan blades. Check if liquid cooling radiators and fans are properly mounted. Clean any dust buildup from fans, filters, and heatsinks.

Cannot install motherboard

Double-check that the motherboard form factor (ATX, micro ATX, Mini-ITX) is supported by the case. Ensure all motherboard standoffs are correctly installed in the case before mounting the motherboard.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique customizable design with drawable panels.
  • Vibrant ARGB lighting with 12 modes.
  • Good cooling potential with support for multiple fans and liquid coolers.
  • Sleek aesthetic with tempered glass side panel.
  • Wide compatibility with various motherboard form factors.

Cons

  • Customization relies on a specific marker; replacements may need to be purchased.
  • Comes with only one 120mm fan pre-installed.
  • Front panel's primary function is artistic, potentially limiting airflow compared to mesh designs.
  • Limited number of 2.5" and 3.5" drive bays compared to larger cases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This case supports ATX, micro ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboard form factors. It requires an ATX power supply. It can accommodate CPU coolers up to 15.7 cm in height and graphics cards up to 30.9 cm in length. Storage options include one 2.5" bay for SSDs and two 3.5" bays for HDDs.

Setup: Install your ATX, micro ATX, or Mini-ITX motherboard into the designated standoffs. Connect your ATX power supply. Mount your storage drives in the appropriate bays. Connect front panel I/O (USB, audio, power button) to the motherboard headers. Install your graphics card and CPU cooler, ensuring clearance.

Care: To maintain the appearance and functionality of your MC-ART case:

  • Cleaning Panels: Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe down the exterior. For the drawable panels, use a dry cloth or a specialized marker eraser if the included marker is used. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Tempered Glass: Clean the tempered glass panel with a microfiber cloth and a glass cleaner solution. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the edges or mounting points.
  • Dust Management: Regularly clean dust filters (if applicable) and ensure internal fans are free of dust buildup to maintain optimal airflow.
