SSD MOUNTING
The CL530 can t two 2.5" SDDs, located beside the power switch.
Use 2x M3 x 5mm FLAT HEAD for each SSD.
Note: We recommend connecting the SATA data cable and power cable
prior to attaching drives to chassis.

MOTHERBOARD
Don’t forget to install your IO shield rst!
Some CPU coolers may require a back plate to be installed before installing the
motherboard. It is advised to also check that any M.2 mounts on the back of
motherboard have drives installed before installation of the motherboard. Once the
IO shield is properly installed the motherboard can now be mounted using
4x 6-32 x 1/4” HEX HEAD screws.
A Phillips #2 screw driver with a minimum 3” shaft length is recommended for
installing these screws.
NOTE: Make sure your CPU heatsink and fan is less than 75mm tall.

POWER SUPPLY
The fan on the power supply is required to be positioned with the fan side of the power
supply towards the top of the case.
Once positioned, the SFX PSU can be attached to the PSU Mounting Bracket
with up to 4x 6-32 x 1/4” HEX HEAD screws and then mounting bracket to case
with 3x 6-32 x 1/4” HEX HEAD screws.

INSTALLING 15mm CASE FANS
Use 4x M3 x 12mm FLAT HEAD screws to attach the fan guard. Place fans into chassis
sliding in the RED fan studs. Follow the proper orientation of the fan guard in photo
below and the fans MUST exhaust air out of the case.
First Slot

Note: Only 2-Slot GPU can t with 25mm fans.
INSTALLING 25mm CASE FANS

GPU MOUNTING
The process of installing the GPU is same as it would be on a standard case setup,
just on a PCIe riser. Slide the card into position, push down into the slot, and then
secure the PCIe card bracket with up to three M3 x 6mm PAN HEAD screws.
If your GPU only has a 2-slot wide PCIe bracket. The CL530 includes a single color
matched slot cover.

Two 120mm fans
( Fans can be 15mm or 25mm thick)

POWER CORD
NOTE: The CL530 Pig-tail option is to increase max GPU card height to 157mm where
as the standard option only allows for a card height of 133mm.
Pig-tail Inlet Standard
The Power Cord extension is installed through the bracket and secured with
2x M3 x 8mm FLAT HEAD screws to the chassis. Then route the power
cable through the case to the PSU.
NOTE: The CL530 Pig-tail option is to increase max GPU card height to
157mm whereas the standard option only allows for a card height of 133mm.

CABLE MANAGEMENT
Once the motherboard and power
supply are mounted, it is
recommended to do some cable
management before installation of any
PCIe cards.
Note: the CPU and cooler mount back
plate / standos are installed.
The power switch/LED is routed and
plugged into the motherboard.
The power cord is mounted above
PCI-E Slots and properly screwed to the
cover plate or passed through
the grommet, and routed to the
inlet on the power supply if using the
pig tail conguration.
Motherboard power cables are
plugged in, and GPU power
cables are loosely positioned.
Power cables are loosely managed
and zip tied.
The PCIe riser is plugged into the
PCIe slot on the motherboard.
Also be sure to check that your
PSU switch is set to on!
