Troubleshooting

Digital display not turning on

Ensure the display's power and data cables are securely connected to the motherboard or the designated internal USB header. Verify that the motherboard has power.

Poor airflow

Check for obstructions in front of intake fans. Ensure dust filters are clean. Consider replacing the semi-glass panel with the mesh upgrade (sold separately) and installing additional fans.

Components overheating

Verify fan and radiator configurations are optimal. Ensure all fans are spinning correctly. Check the digital display for temperature readings and adjust fan speeds accordingly. Clean any dust buildup.

Front USB ports not working

Confirm that the USB 3.0 and USB Type-C headers are correctly plugged into the motherboard. Check motherboard BIOS settings to ensure USB ports are enabled.

Noise from fans or case

Ensure all fans are securely mounted. Check for any loose cables or components rattling. Adjust fan curves to a lower speed if noise is due to high RPM.
