Taking the side panels off and having a look inside and there is definitely a nice bit of room to get everything installed and hopefully with ease. The XPredator cube is sort of broke up into two parts, the top and the bottom. While the top will house most of the hardware and the bottom is designed to keep the PSU, hard drives and cables out of the way.
The XPredator Cube comes with a nice big 200mm front intake fan pre-installed but if this is not for you it is easily removed and can accommodate 2x 120mm or 140mm fans which would also leave the assumption you could also fit a 240mm or 280mm radiator in its place if desired.
The top of the case can also accommodate 2 x 120mm or 140mm fans or a 240/280mm radiator. However, you may need to remove the 5.25″ optical drive bay to accomplish this.
The XPredator Cube case is designed for m-ATX motherboards and as such m-ITX boards are also compatible. The motherboard tray itself has a few cutouts to help route cables in desired locations and also includes a few clips on the bottom side where users will be able to connect zip ties to further control their cables.
As mentioned on the top half of the rear are places for either a 120 or 140mm fan, 2 x holes for water cooling tubes and of course the 4 x PCI expansion bays.
The bottom is where users will find the hard drive cage and install their PSUs among other things. As we can see there is a couple of nice rubber pads where the PSU will sit to help with vibrations. We can also see that both of the pre-installed fans can be connected by a 3-pin motherboard header or a 4-pin molex from the PSU. After the PSU is installed there will still be quite a bit of free room that users will be able to put to good use if need be.
The hard drive cage comes with 3 x trays installed and ready to have some 3.5″ hard drives slotted in them. If you are wanting to install 2.5″ drives fear not, as there are holes that you can attach a 2.5″ drive with screws in each tray.
