Kolink Satellite

The entire front is essentially a large black mesh area, giving the case a very subtle appearance. The I/O panel at the front edge of the top is equipped with two USB 3.0 ports and includes two audio jacks (In/Out), status LED indicators, as well as a power and reset button. At the rear of the top, there is another mesh grille that is slightly elevated and attached to the case. On both sides of the case, there are ventilation grilles for cooling the components and as exhaust openings for the power supply.

Depending on the size of the installed ATX power supply, dual-slot graphics cards with a length of up to 280 mm can be installed in this compact case. A power supply unit (PSU) up to 220 mm long limits the GPUs to 190 mm. With a PSU of up to 140 mm, a graphics card up to 280 mm can then be installed. For CPU coolers, an impressive height of 165 mm is possible, which can be mounted on a Mini-ITX motherboard or certain Micro-ATX motherboards. Only particularly compact Micro-ATX motherboards with a maximum of three expansion slots and dimensions of 22.6 cm x 18.0 cm can be used.

Up to four fast 2.5-inch SSDs can find a home on two brackets but can also make way for up to two 3.5-inch hard drives. One of these brackets is located under the top and can accommodate either two SSDs or two HDDs hanging below, while the bracket mounted on the right side can hold two 2.5-inch drives.

A single 120 mm case fan is installed at the back, and for external water cooling, there are two hose pass-throughs above the two PCI slots. The combination of subtle design and extensive hardware support makes the Satellite a hidden gem among mini performance cases.
