THE DARK BASE 700 EXTERIOR
The 13Kg heavy Dark Base 700 Midi Tower measures 519mm in height, 544mm in depth and 241mm in width.
For the left side panel be quiet! used 4mm thick tempered glass held in place with thumbscrews.
The fascia features a nice brushed aluminum plate at the front and has the company logo on its lower end.
Just over the fascia we see the I/O panel which includes the 3-step fan controller, USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port, microphone and headphones 3.5" ports, on/off power button, reset switch (is also the HDD activity LED), LED mode button and two USB 3.0 ports.
As you can all see the fascia can be removed to access the air-filter past it (the fascia is also dressed with sound insulating/dampening material).
In order to remove the base air-filter you will also need to remove the fascia.
Past the fascia and the air-filter we find one of the two pre-installed SilentWings 3 fans.
The top aluminum plate is partially perforated at the rear.
Moving at the rear we find the 2nd pre-installed SilentWings 3 140mm fan, 9 PCI expansion slots and the PSU area.
At the base of the tower we see four rubber feet and the long air-filter we showcased earlier.
