SLK3800B
At Antec, we continually refine and improve our products to ensure the highest
quality. So it's possible that your new case may differ slightly from the
descriptions in this manual. This isn't a problem; it's simply an improvement.
As of the date of publication, all features, descriptions, and illustrations in this
manual are correct.
SLK3800B – Black Super Mid Tower Case
Your new case features a quiet 400 Watt SmartPower2.0 power supply, with a
main power switch. Make sure you turn the switch to the ON ( I ) position
before you boot up your computer for the first time. Normally, you won't need
to switch to the OFF (O) position, since the power supply includes a soft on/off
feature. This lets you turn your computer on and off by using the soft switch
on your computer case. If your computer crashes and you can't shut it down
using the soft switch, you can switch the main power to the OFF (O) position.
Note [Applies only to models designed for sale in the European Union:
SmartPower models designed for the EU include Power Factor Correction (PFC)
circuitry in accord with European standard regulation code EN61000-3-2. By
altering the input current wave shape, PFC improves the power factor of the
power supply. This results in increased energy efficiency, reduced heat loss,
prolonged life for power distribution and consumption equipment, and improved
output voltage stability.]
Setting Up
1. Place the case upright on a flat, stable surface. The power supply fan
(at the back of the case) should be facing you.
Note (not applicable to models designed for the European Union): Before
installation, check the red voltage switch setting on the power supply. It
should match your local voltage (115V for North America, Japan, etc. and
230V for Europe and many other countries). If it doesn't match, please
change the setting. If you don't, you could damage your equipment and
void your warranty.
2. Completely loosen the two thumbscrews that secure the right side panel.
(Note: they remain attached to the panel so you won't easily lose them.)
3. There are two latches on the side panel. Press the releases on each latch.
The latches will pop up partially. Disengage the latches by pushing them
fully out to the 90-degree position, and remove the panel by swinging it out.
4. Inside the case you should see the power supply, some wiring with marked
connectors (USB, PWR etc.), an installed I/O panel and a power cord. You
will also find an expansion slot protective cover mounted above the
expansion slots.
5. Place the case with the front bezel facing you and press the release tabs
on the bottom of the bezel to remove the front bezel. Set the bezel aside in
a safe place.

Installing the Motherboard
This manual does not cover CPU, RAM, or expansion card installation. Please
consult your motherboard manual for specific mounting instructions and
troubleshooting.
1. Lay the case down, with the open side facing up. The drive cages and
power supply should be visible.
2. Make sure you have the correct I/O panel for your motherboard. If the
panel provided with the case isn't suitable, please contact your motherboard manufacturer for the correct I/O panel.
3. Line up your motherboard with the standoff holes, and remember which
holes are lined up. Not all motherboards will match with all of the provided
holes; this is normal, and won't affect functionality. (In other words, there
will likely be extra holes.)
4. Remove your motherboard by lifting it up.
5. Screw the brass standoffs into the threaded holes that line up with your
motherboard. Do not overtighten the standoffs. Some standoffs may be
pre-installed for your convenience.
6. Place your motherboard on the brass standoffs.
7. Screw in your motherboard to the standoffs with the provided Phillips-head
screws. Your motherboard is now installed.
Connecting the Power and LED
The power supply conforms to the latest ATX12V Version 2.0 standard. It is
also backwards-compatible with previous ATX form factor power supplies.
Before you connect the power supply to any of your devices, please consult the
appropriate user manuals for your motherboard and other peripherals.
The power supply is also equipped with a 3-pin fan signal connector. Connect
it to one of the fan connectors on your motherboard. You may monitor the
speed of the rear power supply fan through your motherboard BIOS or through
the monitoring software that's supplied with your motherboard. Note: At low
temperatures, the fan may run as slow as 950RPM. At these speeds, some
motherboards may not properly detect the fan speed and may generate false
warnings of fan failure. To ensure proper monitoring of the fan, please check
your motherboard manual.
1. Connect the Main Power Connector and
the 4-pin +12V connector to your
motherboard as needed. If your
motherboard uses a 20-pin connector;
detach the 4-pin attachment on the 24-pin
power connector (see pictures 1 and 2).
2. Connect the Reset switch (labeled RESET
SW) to your motherboard at the RST
connector. Make sure the label always faces the front of the case.
3. Power LED (labeled POWER LED) connector is located behind the Reset connector.
4. Power Switch (labeled POWER SW) connects to the PWR connector on
the motherboard.
5. Speaker (labeled SPEAKER) connector is behind the PWR connector.
6. Hard Drive LED (labeled H.D.D. LED) connects to the IDE connector.
