Composed of aluminium and 3mm thick, the two side doors are pretty standard. They have a good finish and both doors are quite solid.

With the Poseidon, there is no side door opening/closing system. These are kept closed with the help of two finger screws located at the back of the case, with the side also having a grill so that you can see the contents of the case. More original, this grill is interchangeable with a Plexiglas window provided with the case.

As for the back of the case, it seems quite normal, but there are two openings with rubber around them which allows you to pass the pipes for a water cooling system. More precise, these openings are planned for the 3D Galaxy water cooling kit manufactured by the same company, but they are still compatible with any kits.

As for support, there are four anti-slip feet made of rubber which helps reduce vibrations.
