The C8 showcase tower with three ARGB PWM fans already fitted, including two big 160mm reverse fans feeding the GPU from below.
Quick Specs
- Dual-chamber full tower for E-ATX (up to 280mm), ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX boards
- Bevelled front and left glass for a near-seamless 270° view
- 2 x 160mm reverse ARGB PWM fans (bottom) and 1 x 140mm ARGB PWM fan (rear) included
- 440mm GPU, 175mm CPU cooler and 210mm PSU clearance
- Front USB Type-C 10Gbps plus two USB 3.0 ports
The C8, With the Fans Sorted
This is the same chassis as the C8 Basic: identical dimensions, glass, clearances and mounting options. The difference is in the box. The ARGB version ships with two 160 x 35mm reverse-blade ARGB PWM fans in the floor, pushing fresh air straight up into the graphics card, plus a 140mm ARGB PWM exhaust at the back. That gives you a working vertical airflow path from day one and matching lighting, for a few hundred rand more than the Basic. Add an AIO or top exhaust fans to finish the loop.
Who It Suits
The C8 is a large, heavy case (11.84kg, 303mm wide) for builders who want a high-end showpiece and big cooling options: top, side and bottom each take a 360mm radiator. The dual-chamber layout tucks the PSU and drives behind the motherboard tray, so cable work happens out of sight, but storage is limited to two 3.5" and four 2.5" drives. If you need a compact desk footprint or lots of hard drives, look elsewhere. Air coolers are capped at 175mm tall.
FEATURES:
- Dual-chamber design separating CPU/GPU cooling from PSU and drive space
- 45° bevelled front and left tempered glass panels
- Up to 10 fans, or 360mm radiators on top, side and bottom at the same time
- Tool-free quick-release front, top and side panels
- Vertical GPU riser support, 8 reusable PCIe slot covers, 4 interior and 2 rear straps plus 6 grommets

Questions
Before you buy
Will my graphics card fit in this case?
It takes cards up to 440mm long. Every graphics card we list shows its length on the Specifications tab, so compare the two numbers and leave a few millimetres for the power connectors. Front-mounted radiators and fans usually eat into that clearance - the case manual will say by how much.
What CPU cooler will fit?
Air coolers up to 175mm tall, and liquid cooler radiators of 120, 140, 240, 280, 360mm. Cooler height is measured from the motherboard surface to the top of the heatsink, and it is the dimension that most often catches people out with a side panel that will not close.
Which motherboards does it take?
It accepts E-ATX, ATX, Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX boards. A case always takes its own size and anything smaller, so there is no harm in fitting a compact board in a larger case beyond a little wasted space.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
