The S380 is a mid-tower ATX chassis designed to accommodate modern high-performance builds with expanded cooling and component clearance. The case features a 4 mm tempered glass side panel, support for up to ten 120 mm or six 140 mm fans, and radiator compatibility at front and top for up to 360 mm AIO units; internal clearances permit CPU coolers up to 180 mm, GPUs up to 400 mm, and power supplies up to 200 mm. The layout emphasises modularity and serviceability through a dismantlable modular design, removable dust filters, a GPU support bracket to prevent sag, and multiple storage mounting options that include 3.5" and 2.5" bays.
The S380 also targets compatibility with next-generation motherboard designs through explicit support for hidden-connector variants from major vendors, and it ships with preinstalled ARGB PWM fans and synchronization support for common motherboard RGB ecosystems. Front I/O includes USB 3.0 Type-A, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, and audio, while builder-focused features include tool-free panel access and cable-routing channels to optimize airflow and cable management for compact or high-density system builds.
