How can I tell if a darkFlash case supports my motherboard's form factor and back-connect layout?

 and check the specifications for supported motherboard form factors, such as ATX, Micro-ATX, or Mini-ITX.

If you are using a back-connect motherboard, also confirm that the case specifically lists support for a back-connect or rear-connector layout. A compatible motherboard form factor does not automatically mean the case has the required rear cutouts for back-connect connectors.

How do I connect my case's front-panel power switch, USB, and audio cables?

Turn off the PC, switch off the PSU, and unplug the power cord before connecting any internal cables. Refer to your motherboard manual for the exact header locations and pin layout. You can access the darkFlash case manual by scanning the QR code on the product packaging.

Header names vary by motherboard manufacturer. Match the connector shape and missing pins carefully, and never force a connector into place.

If your motherboard does not have the required internal header, the corresponding case port cannot be connected directly.

How do I connect my case's front-panel power switch, USB, and audio cables?

Turn off the PC, switch off the PSU, and unplug the power cord before connecting any internal cables. Refer to your motherboard manual for the exact header locations and pin layout. You can access the darkFlash case manual by scanning the QR code on the product packaging.

Connect the cables as follows:





Connect POWER SW, RESET SW, POWER LED, and HDD LED to the motherboard’s front-panel header. LED connectors have positive and negative polarity, while switch connectors usually do not.



Connect the front USB Type-A cable to the matching internal USB header.



Connect the front USB Type-C cable to a compatible internal USB Type-C header.



Connect the HD AUDIO cable to the motherboard’s front-audio header.

Header names vary by motherboard manufacturer. Match the connector shape and missing pins carefully, and never force a connector into place.

If your motherboard does not have the required internal header, the corresponding case port cannot be connected directly.

For more detailed instructions, see Understanding Motherboard Front Panel Header Pins.

What should I check if my case’s front USB Type-C port isn’t working?

Turn off the PC, switch off the PSU, and unplug the power cord. Confirm that the case’s internal USB Type-C cable is fully connected to a compatible front-panel USB Type-C header on the motherboard.

Check the motherboard manual for the correct header location and supported USB standard. Match the connector orientation carefully and do not force it into place.

Data transfer speed, charging speed, and video output depend on the capabilities of the case port, motherboard header, cable, and connected device. A USB Type-C connector does not automatically support every USB Type-C feature.

First, check the specifications for your exact darkFlash case model to confirm that it supports vertical GPU mounting.

A vertical installation normally requires:

These parts may not be included with every case, so check the product specifications and package contents before installation.

Confirm that the graphics card’s length, thickness, and slot width fit the vertical mounting area. Leave enough clearance between the graphics card and the side panel, fans, or radiator to maintain proper airflow.

Use a riser cable that supports the PCIe generation required by your motherboard and graphics card.

How should I configure my case fans for optimal airflow?

A common setup is to use the front fans as intake and the rear and top fans as exhaust. Depending on the case layout, bottom or side fans may also be used as intake.

Check the airflow arrows on each fan before installation, and keep the airflow paths clear of cables and other obstructions. The ideal configuration may vary depending on your case, graphics card, CPU cooler, and radiator placement.

How should I clean the glass panels on my case?

Shut down the computer, switch off the power supply, and unplug the power cable before cleaning. If possible, remove the glass panel according to the product manual and place it on a clean, soft, flat surface.

Use a clean microfiber cloth or glass cleaning cloth to gently remove dust and fingerprints. For stubborn marks, apply a small amount of neutral cleaner to the cloth before wiping.

Do not spray cleaner directly onto the glass or case, as liquid may enter the computer. Avoid alcohol, strong acids, strong alkaline cleaners, abrasive cleaners, rough cloths, and excessive pressure, as they may damage the surface coating or leave marks.

Make sure the panel is completely dry before reinstalling it, and take extra care around the edges and corners of tempered glass.

How often should I clean the dust filters in my case?

The recommended cleaning frequency depends on the environment. If the computer is placed on the floor, used in a dusty room, or located near pets, inspect the filters regularly and clean them approximately every one to two months.

Remove the filters from the case before cleaning them. Loose dust can be removed with compressed air, a soft brush, or a vacuum cleaner on a low-suction setting.

If the filters are washable, rinse them with clean water and allow them to dry completely before reinstalling them. Never reinstall a damp filter.

Keeping the dust filters clean helps maintain proper airflow and reduces heat buildup inside the case.

What should I do if a case panel is stuck and will not come off?

Shut down the computer, switch off the power supply, and unplug the power cable before removing any panel.

Scan the QR code on the product packaging, search for your exact model, and check the manual for the correct removal direction. Depending on the case, the panel may be secured by screws, captive screws, clips, hinges, or magnets.

Make sure all fasteners have been released. Use both hands and apply gentle, even pressure. Do not pull from a single point, twist the panel, or use metal tools to pry it open, especially when handling a glass panel.

If the panel still cannot be removed, stop applying force and contact the retailer or distributor from which you purchased the product for assistance.

How much clearance should I leave around my PC case for proper airflow?

As a general guideline, leave approximately 

 of open space around the case’s main intake and exhaust areas. This usually includes:

The required clearance depends on the case layout and the amount of heat produced by the system. A high-performance graphics card, a top-mounted radiator, or several exhaust fans may require additional open space.

Do not place the case directly against a wall, cabinet door, desk panel, or another object that blocks an airflow opening. If the case has a bottom intake or a bottom-mounted power supply, place it on a firm, flat surface instead of thick carpet.

When placing the computer inside a desk compartment or cabinet, make sure the compartment has open ventilation at both the front and rear so that cool air can enter and hot air can escape.

If fan noise or component temperatures increase during extended use, move the case farther away from nearby surfaces and check whether any vents are obstructed.

How much clearance should I leave around my PC case for proper airflow?

As a general guideline, leave approximately 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) of open space around the case’s main intake and exhaust areas. This usually includes:





The area behind the rear exhaust



The space above top-mounted fans or radiators



Front or side air intakes



Bottom air intakes and the power supply ventilation area

Do not place heavy objects above the case where they could fall onto the glass.



Before removing a glass panel, shut down the computer, unplug it, and place the case on a stable surface as instructed in the product manual.



Support large glass panels with both hands.



Do not rest the panel’s edges or corners on tile, stone, concrete, or other hard surfaces.



Follow the specified installation procedure and do not overtighten the mounting screws.
