GIGABYTE announced the AORUS C400 GLASS compact mid-tower gaming case featuring support for standard and vertical graphics card mounting, which has been honoured with the 2024 Red Dot Design Award. The AORUS C400 GLASS features a vertical airflow cooling design, ensuring optimal stability and enhanced heat dissipation efficiency within the case.
The AORUS C400 GLASS case's compact size of approximately 40 litres still provides outstanding compatibility, ensuring that size limitations do not restrict performance. The tool-less design offers convenient assembly and efficient building process. Additionally, the case supports GIGABYTE RGB Fusion lighting effects.
Optimized Vertical Airflow Design
The airflow design of the AORUS C400 GLASS case is inspired by the stack effect which allows air to rapidly circulate vertically within the case. This achieves more efficient heat dissipation, effectively reducing internal temperatures. The bottom, top, and front panels all feature a large-area vent design, minimizing airflow obstructions and facilitating a large volume of intake and exhaust airflow.
Additionally, the case comes with four 120mm ARGB and PWM pre-installed fans positioned at the bottom and rear of the case, providing excellent airflow paths.
Compact 40L with Superb Compatibility
With a compact size of nearly 40 litres, the AORUS C400 GLASS is an attractive option for those with limited space or a preference for a compact system. The case accommodates ATX motherboards, high-end graphics cards, and high-wattage power supplies. For cooling, it supports up to seven fans to ensure excellent performance and can house up to a 360mm radiator at both the top and bottom, as well as a 120mm radiator at the rear.
In terms of drive support, the AORUS C400 GLASS offers up to three 2.5" SSDs or up to five 3.5" HDDs, featuring a fully modular installation design that allows for easy assembly by gamers. Additionally, the AORUS C400 GLASS supports both vertical and horizontal GPU installations.
Easy Installation, Level-up Efficiency
All panels feature a tool-less design that simplifies the assembly process, enhancing convenience and flexibility. The top panel also has a detachable bracket for easy installation of top fans or radiators.
Additionally, the case is equipped with dust filters on the front, top and bottom. The magnetic dust filters on the front and top panel, along with the detachable design on the bottom, make cleaning convenient and time-saving. Furthermore, the built-in ARGB and PWM hub controller provides five 5v 3pin ARGB connectors and five PWM connectors, which allows users to connect extra RGB strips and cooling fans.
GIGABYTE RGB Fusion Lights Up Your Gaming Style
The AORUS C400 GLASS sports front panel RGB lighting. Below the front panel, light guides can shine upon the desk, enhancing the gaming atmosphere and aesthetic. Pre-installed ARGB fans allow users to pair with other GIGABYTE RGB Fusion devices, and with the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER lighting software, users can easily customize their preferred RGB effects.
