6. Summary
The overall performance of the Josper D40 chassis is still very good, a very delicate, compact ATX specification chassis. The appearance of this chassis is very beautiful, with a large area of aluminum alloy material, with double-sided glass side panels, the overall texture is very good. The internal space design of the chassis is very thoughtful, compatible with the ATX specification of the motherboard, the upper part supports 240 water cooling, the power supply is fixed in the front, so that the height and width of the chassis can be fully utilized in the space of the two dimensions, the volume is more compact, and various hardware can be easily put in.
In terms of chassis air ducts, this chassis adopts the design of vertical air ducts, with bottom air inlet and upper air outlet. In the case of not matching the chassis fan and simply fixing the upper part of the 240 water cooling, the performance of the chassis air duct is already quite good. If the chassis fan is fully equipped, the internal duct performance of the chassis should be better. In addition, the chassis fan at the rear of the chassis can be considered not an outgoing fan, but an inlet fan, specifically taking care of the processor, power supply heat dissipation, and may have a better effect.
Don't worry about the details, the back line is also very good to walk. However, if the top of the chassis is installed with 280 water cooling, it is not impossible to install, it will be more compact, you need to pay attention to the installation order, the height of the motherboard heat sink, etc.
Thank you!
