Another nice feature of the I-Star Nitro AX Full Tower Case is the revolving front I/O panel, which can be rotated to the right providing nice clean case lines to match the left side of the case, or to orient the cable output to the right if the tower is on left side of the user’s desk.

The lockable left side panel has plenty of ventilation openings. The topmost area serves as the intake for the CPU cooling duct; and has been nicely finished by way of a brushed silver aluminum bezel. The bottom opening can be used with a fan (with modification), to allow fresh air to blow onto the PCI area, very effective cooling for high-end video cards. The handle has finished with a brushed aluminum insert, and it is slid forward to release the side panel from its locked position.

The Nitro AX has retractable feet that can be swung outwards for more stability. The case is plenty stable even with the feet underneath the case. The rear panel of the Nitro AX is simple and clean. There is a 120mm exhaust fan port with honey combed shaped openings providing unrestricted air flow for the supplied thermally controlled 120mm fan. One other nice feature I like about this case is the detachable power supply mounting bracket, which provides more flexibility for mounting the PSU.
