Interior

Both side panels are fixed into place via dual thumbscrews. The side panels are steel and are significantly thick with more synthetic noise damping material to keep those noise levels to a minimum.

Removing the side panels reveals the layout, space and features inside 330R. This case can house M-ATX and ATX motherboards and is powder coated black. There are numerous tool-free design features and some accommodation for cable management – though we are somewhat disappointed to see there are no rubber grommets for the cut-outs on the motherboard tray.

Moving in for a closer look at the various features we first arrive at the PSU region. Unfortunately there is no anti-vibration padding in this area which helps to keep vibration to a minimum and also prevent scratching from occurring. We can’t understand why such a feature is absent from a case of this stature. It may be a small oversight but this is an attribute which can be found even on budget cases.

The underside has a detachable dust filter to help collect any unwanted dirt and prevent any dust from entering the system.
