Round the back

Around the rear, there are no surprises for a chassis in this price range. The PSU mounts up top and needs to be positioned from the inside of the case and then secured with the usual screws.

There is a single fan and, as has become standard, it's a 120mm model. A nice touch, though, is the pre-prepared mounting holes for 90mm and 80mm variants.

A push-fit system is used to hold expansion cards in place. But it's not as secure as screws - and is totally useless for dual-slot graphics cards - but otherwise suffices. The blanking plates are the cheap push-in variety, which may or may not be a concern.

The bottom expansion slot is already occupied straight out of the box - and a red switch indicates that there is something out of the ordinary inside the Tuniq 3.

Plastic feet run almost full length from front to back but are a little too flimsy to the touch for our liking and seem to be made from an overly soft plastic.

The red-switch secret, though, is the two blue cold cathode lamps built into the feet and giving you an optional blue glow from underneath when powered up.
