With the case opened and contents layed out, the Tempest setup doesn't look too different than any other mid tower case.
|
The Tempest comes with the standard rails and screws.

The hard drive bays are arranged just behind the two 120mm fans for the best cooling setup. With the 120mm fans pulling air from the front of the case and blowing it directly onto the hard drives.

This photo shows the 5.25" drive bay setup.

The top and back of the case is shown here with three 120mm fans and their mounting arrangements. This design is such to exhaust the tempest with a grand total of 360mm of air.
|
Shown here are the 5.25" bays' quick releases which are favored in any case on the market today. The down side to the Tempest here is the back side of the 5.25" bays. There is no quick release setup and if you really want the device mounted at all, you must use the provided extra long screws which come with the Tempest case. These proved to be extremely frustrating to install.

The Tempest was populated with a micro ATX motherboard, hard drive, DVD ROM, and power supply. With no hide-away cable management, the case looked pretty cluttered.
|
Another angle of the case being populated shows the power supply having to be mounted upside down due to the PS fan needing to exhaust somewhere, since the tempest didn't have a vent out the bottom.
