QuestionIs there any way to turn down or turn off the LED lights? I found the button that changes the lighting colors, but all choices are pretty bright.
Asked 4 years ago by Beindijo.
- Answer There are different modes and different color schemes you can choose by pushing the led button, and you can turn them off entirely if you want but there is no way to turn the brightness down that I know of. To turn them off you need to push and hold the led button until they turn off and keep holding until they flash once.

QuestionDoes the motherboard have extra M.2 Slots for M.2 SDDs and other cables to support internal SSDs and HDDs? If so, how many slots are there for the M.2 and internal drives.
Asked 4 years ago by Mald.
- Answer Yes, there is a second M.2 slot. The first is being used by the 512gb SSD included with the tower and can be found just below the CPU cooling fan. The second, empty slot, can be found at the bottom right corner of the motherboard, just below the GPU.
