The second front door hides an 80 mm fan with a dust filter that draws fresh air into the case interior.
Castek's C1020 case failed our cucumber test miserably. None of the other cases has as many sharp edges and corners as this one. In other words, exercise caution when installing the hardware and even opening the case.
