The Vector RS Blackout Light TG is a large size mid-tower that measures 498mm in height, 552mm in depth and 233mm in width.

 

 

As already mentioned, the entire right side panel is made out of tempered glass held in place via 2 rear thumbscrews.

 

 

Moving at the front we see the fascia which is made out of both tempered glass (left side) and plastic (the ARGB LED strip passes between them).

 

 

The I/O is located at the top and includes the on/off power and reset buttons, two USB 3.0 ports, USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port and the usual headset and microphone 3.5" ports.

 

 

By default, the case arrives with the tempered glass top panel as you can see from the above picture.

 

 

In order to use the ventilated top cover, you will need to remove the fascia (just by pulling it outwards from its base).

 

 

This reveals the two pre-mounted Dynamic X2 GP-14 fans and the 240/280/360mm radiator space.

 

 

After that you just need to remove the tempered glass panel and place the fan/radiator bracket (which i mounted the wrong way in the above picture - the two mounting lanes should be on the left and not the right).

 

 

Next stop is to place the air-filter and mount the ventilated cover as seen above.

 

 

Moving at the rear of the case we find the 3rd Dynamic X2 GP-14 fan, 9 PCI expansion slots (2 are vertical) and the PSU area.

 

 

At the base of the Vector RS Blackout Light TG we find a long removable air-filter (unfortunately in order to pull it out you first need to remove the fascia).
