Dual 120/140mm cooling fans can be installed at top
On the underside of R4 there are 4x rubber feet to prevent the case from slipping on smooth surfaces. Fractal Design have given R4 a large dust filter covering the PSU region and the optional bottom fan mount - this filter can be removed without having the case on its side.
