GD04 - Compared

Compared to the GD03 the difference in the depth is pretty huge. The GD04 really is about the size of a normal AV-amplifier and thus will fit to just about any AV-rack/furniture.

GD04 - From inside

Due to the small depth of the case, the internal layout is like nothing we've seen before. The drive cages are mounted above the motherboard and power supply area and have to be removed in order to get a better look at the case.

With the drive cages out of the way, there really isn't much to see in the internal layout! On the left you can see the PSU area with the hole for cold intake air and on the sides there are the three 120 mm fans. As a nice little detail all of the fans have fan guards on them, so cables don't get in between the blades and jam the fans. There are also plenty of hooks around the PSU area and along the front wall for cable ties.
