## Long description

1stCool STEP Premium 2 ver.1 is a compact micro tower computer case in black designed for mini-ITX or micro-ATX desktop systems. The enclosure features an AU front panel layout with a USB 3.0 port, one external 5.25" bay, internal mounts for two 3.5" hard drives and two 2.5" drives. Supplied without a power supply, this case is intended for users who want a small-footprint chassis for home or office builds while keeping basic drive expandability and modern front-panel connectivity.
Advantages
The case provides a space-efficient chassis that supports both mini-ITX and micro-ATX motherboards and includes dedicated mounting points for 3.5" and 2.5" storage devices. The AU front panel layout with USB 3.0 enables faster data transfer for external devices. A single external 5.25" bay allows installation of an optical drive or other 5.25" accessory. Its black finish and straightforward design make it suitable for unobtrusive placement in workspaces.
Suitable for
Compact home desktop systems where space is limited
Office PCs requiring basic drive capacity and a front USB 3.0 port
Mini-ITX or micro-ATX builds that do not need an integrated power supply
Systems that use a separate aftermarket power supply
When it may not be suitable
This case is not suitable for high-end gaming or workstation builds that require large graphics cards, extensive cooling solutions, or multiple large expansion cards, due to its micro tower form factor and limited internal space. Because it is supplied without a power supply, users who prefer a preinstalled or proprietary PSU should consider a different chassis.
Key specifications
Form factor: micro tower compatible with mini-ITX and micro-ATX motherboards
External bays: 1 x 5.25"
Internal drive mounts: 2 x 3.5" and 2 x 2.5"
Front panel: AU layout with USB 3.0 connectivity
Colour: black
Power supply: not included (supports separate ATX/compatible PSU installation)
How to use
Install a compatible mini-ITX or micro-ATX motherboard on the standoffs provided, fit a separate power supply into the PSU area and route cables to the motherboard and drives. Secure 3.5" and 2.5" storage devices into their respective bays or brackets, and mount any 5.25" device into the external bay if needed. Connect the front-panel USB 3.0 cable and power/reset switches to the motherboard according to the manual. Ensure airflow paths are unobstructed and fasten side panels before powering on the system.
What to consider before purchase
Confirm motherboard size (mini-ITX or micro-ATX) compatibility
Check maximum GPU length and cooler heights against the micro tower dimensions if planning discrete graphics or large coolers
Plan for a separate power supply purchase if not already owned
Verify whether additional case fans are required for your cooling needs
Usage recommendations
For typical home or office use, pair this micro tower with a low-profile CPU cooler and a compact graphics card to maintain internal clearance. Install SSDs in the 2.5" mounts for faster boot and application performance and use the USB 3.0 front port for frequent external backups or high-speed peripherals.
