There&#8217;s also lots of cable management features and enough space for two power supplies.<\/p>\n<p>The StrikeX ST also provides for an insane twenty-one (21) 120mm fans. Aerocool provides a hub to connect them to and the front of the chassis has a built-in fan controller controlling fan speeds on three zones.<\/p>\n<p>The ST has two USB 3.0 ports on the front panel along with two USB 2.0 ports and the usual headphone and microphone jacks. Red LEDs light up on the front panel console and the StrikeX logo also glows when the PC is on.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 16%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-56076 gallery-columns-6 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Aerocool StrikeX ST\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-56216\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-56216'>\n\t\t\t\tAerocool StrikeX ST\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st-top'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-top-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Aerocool StrikeX ST top\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-56215\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-56215'>\n\t\t\t\tAerocool StrikeX ST top\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st-rear'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-rear-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Aerocool StrikeX ST rear\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-56212\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-56212'>\n\t\t\t\tAerocool StrikeX ST rear\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st-rear-tall'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-rear-tall-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st-side-view'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-side-view-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Aerocool StrikeX ST side view\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-56214\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-56214'>\n\t\t\t\tAerocool StrikeX ST side view\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/hardware\/56076-aerocool-announces-the-gt-s-black-edition-full-tower-for-gamers\/attachment\/aerocool-strikex-st-side-inside-view'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"68\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Aerocool-StrikeX-ST-side-inside-view-96x68.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Aerocool StrikeX ST side inside view\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-56213\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-56213'>\n\t\t\t\tAerocool StrikeX ST side inside view\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>There&#8217;s 430mm of space for even the longest graphics cards, washable dust filters all-round, space for a front 240 mm radiator, a top 360mm radiator and space for another 240mm radiator at the bottom.
