How to Install In Win EN028 Computer Case
- Step 1: Prepare your micro ATX motherboard and components. Gather screws, standoffs, and cables required to mount the motherboard and drives inside the EN028.
- Step 2: Place the motherboard standoffs in the chassis according to your micro ATX form factor. Align the motherboard with the I/O shield and mounting holes, then secure it with screws.
- Step 3: Since the EN028 includes a pre-installed 350W power supply, you won’t need to install a separate PSU. Connect the 24-pin motherboard power cable and the 4- or 8-pin CPU power cable from the included PSU to the appropriate motherboard connectors.
- Step 4: Install storage drives into the available bays. Use the external 5.25" bays for optical or auxiliary drives as needed, the external 3.5" bay for a secondary HDD or SSD if available, and place internal 3.5" drives into the two internal bays. Secure each drive with the provided mounting hardware.
- Step 5: Route cables neatly to minimize obstruction to airflow and ensure the front panel USB and audio cables reach the corresponding headers on the motherboard. Connect front I/O cables to the appropriate headers following your motherboard manual.
- Step 6: If you plan to expand beyond stock components, verify that your GPU and peripherals stay within the power and space limits of the EN028. Close the case, reconnect peripherals, and power on to verify a smooth POST and operating system boot.
