Setup, Compatibility & Care
Motherboard Compatibility: The CH690 supports Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, and standard ATX motherboards. Ensure your motherboard's form factor aligns with these specifications.
Component Installation: With a CPU cooler height limit of 182mm and a GPU length limit of 450mm, most modern high-end components will fit. The case accommodates ATX PSUs up to 180mm in length. Install storage drives in the designated 3.5" and 2.5" bays.
Cooling Setup: Decide on your cooling configuration. Radiators can be mounted on the top (up to 420mm), side (up to 280mm), or PSU shroud (up to 360mm). Alternatively, install fans (up to 140mm) in these locations, as well as the rear.
DIY Airflow Modification: To replace the semi-glass panel with a mesh and fan bracket for improved airflow, you will need to manually unscrew the existing panel and attach the new components.
Cable Management: The case offers a 36.5mm width behind the motherboard tray for routing cables, facilitating a clean build.
Care and Maintenance: Clean the semi-glass panel and exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The magnetic dust filter at the bottom can be easily removed for cleaning to maintain optimal airflow and prevent dust buildup.
