INTRODUCTION
APUs made a big comeback in 2018 with AMD’s Ryzen/Vega based AM4 chips
leading the way. Powerful processing and graphics on a single chip with the latest
connectivity will make them a great choice for low cost gaming PC’s or advanced
Home Theatre PC’s.
Introducing the HT5, a compact and versatile low profile PC case focusing
on high performance APU cooling. Despite being only 5 litres in volume it can
accommodate a CPU cooler up to 72mm in height and up to four 80mm fans,
allowing you to run a compact yet powerful system both cool and quietly.
Alternatively the HT5 can be configured with two 80mm fans and a dedicated
low profile dual slot Graphics Card for increased productivity or gaming capability.
Whether you want to build yourself a game console killing HTPC, or a mini
space saving Desktop PC, the HT5 is a great all round choice. With a range of
finishes to choose from, complete your setup in style.
Thank you for choosing Lazer3D.

LAYOUT EXAMPLES
Plan Your Build With Care Ahead of Assembly!
The HT5 is a versatile case that can be configured in many different ways to suit
the type of system your building. For example a PCIe expansion card can be installed
instead of extra cooling fans, or a DC-DC power board such as the HDPLEX 400w HiFi
DC-ATX board, or an internal power adapter (e.g. HDPLEX 400w AC-DC adapter), or
extra 2.5” storage drives, or a combination of any of these in each side of the case.
Below are some examples of how the case can be configured:
Extra 2.5” drive and 2x 80x25mm fans Low profile GPU and 2x 80x25mm fans
4x 80x25mm fans
Low profile GPU and HDplex 300w ac-dc
(Brickless Build)
Low profile GPU and HDPLEX Hifi DC-ATX
Leave front of case clear for best RGB results
