So this case is interesting and I'll add two photos if I can. But you have the front ports which are two USB Type A (3.2 Gen 1) ports, a USB Type C (3.2 Gen 2) port, and a combination audio/microphone jack. Now the rest of the IO is actually on the BOTTOM of the case so you'll actually have to turn the computer on its side to access them so obviously this needs to be done when the computer isn't actively running and I would recommend putting as many things there as possible to leave your front ports open. From there all of the wires, like DP or Ethernet feed out a gap at the bottom in the back of the case. It is actually nice for aesthetics and SOME cable management but I imagine the novelty would wear off on about the second time you need to access that section of the IO. Here is where I get a little iffy, I cannot find official listing for this but I have looked through various video product overviews and while they didn't mention it I believe I have enough to make an educated guess for the BOTTOM IO. I will add a third photo for it as well. We have four additional USB Type A 3.2 ports (IDK the GEN for these), what looks like two USB Type A 2.0?, an HDMI 2.0 port, a DP port (version not listed, my guess is 1.2), and a 2.5GB Ethernet port. It also has a full audio (mic, line in and out) thing as well. The final two USB Type A ports at the top that you can see in the photo I believe feed into the internal motherboard and is not apart of your IO. Lastly of course you have the standard ports that come with your 3090 but I assume I don't need to address those directly. Hopefully this answers your question thoroughly enough. I have no affiliation with IBUYPOWER OR Bestbuy but I thought I would toss you an answer because I hate crappy product listings. If you are still considering this thing, I would personally recommend against it. A 700 power supply is pathetic and insufficient for this machine and is an 800 minimum easily but I personally would never go less than 1000 for this thing for the sake of safety and at this things high price, I am insulted they went so low. Further the RAM is equally as pathetic, for an i9 and a 3090 it should have 32GB. This is clearly meant to be a high end PC but they skimped out there as well. Lastly, mini cases are always a pain to work in and from the videos I just watched, this one looks painful as well but no more than the standard, but just wouldn't recommend. If you need something small go micro ATX over this ITX but honestly go full size if you can. Better thermals and easier to work with and usually cheaper.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
