## Long description

The NATEC NPC-2038 Desktop Black is a compact PC case designed for small-form-factor builds. It supports Mini-ITX and Micro ATX motherboards and offers a combination of drive capacity and basic airflow with three preinstalled fans: a 120 mm front fan, a 120 mm side fan and an 80 mm rear fan. The chassis accommodates up to three 3.5" hard drives, five 2.5" drives and one 5.25" external bay, while front-panel connectivity includes two USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A ports and two USB 2.0 ports. Constructed from ABS plastic and metal, the case has a black finish and a lightweight profile suitable for home or office desktop installations.
Advantages
The NPC-2038 balances a small footprint with notable internal capacity for both 3.5" and 2.5" drives, enabling multi-drive configurations in a desktop form factor. The three included fans provide basic, targeted airflow to help maintain component temperatures in everyday tasks. Front I/O with USB 3.2 Gen1 and USB 2.0 ports ensures convenient connection of external drives and peripherals. ABS and metal construction keeps the weight low while maintaining structural rigidity for standard desktop use.

How to use
Install a compatible Mini-ITX or Micro ATX motherboard onto the standoffs inside the chassis, then mount the power supply in the designated location (power supply not included). Secure 3.5" and 2.5" drives in their respective bays using the provided mounting points or screws. Connect the front-panel USB ports and fan headers to the motherboard headers following the motherboard manual. Ensure cable routing does not obstruct airflow from the front and side intake fans to the rear exhaust fan. After assembly, place the case on a stable surface with sufficient clearance for intake and exhaust.
Usage recommendations
For optimal thermal performance, avoid blocking the front and side fan inlets and consider using SSDs for frequently accessed data to reduce heat output. Regularly clean dust from fan intakes and filters to maintain airflow. When planning storage layouts, distribute high-heat components and drives to allow airflow between them.
