The Moneual 312 Series Home Theater PC chassis with its sleek yet sophisticated design is ideal for those looking for a more inconspicuous HTPC cut down in size, but not in function. Composed entirely of 100% hand-crafted aluminum, the 312 hides essential ports such as microphone, speaker jacks, USB and Firewire ports, as well as a multimedia card reader. The four rubber-soled aluminum audio feet add quality to the presentation, and intelligent venting systems built throughout the case encourage airflow to keep the system adequately cool for optimal performance.

The secret to Moneual 312 chassis is the immense media storage space available. It is possible to install up to three 3.5" hard drives. With larger and larger Hard Disk Drives becoming available to consumers at an alarming rate, who knows how much space the hard drives will ultimately be able to hold! High Definition, even Blu-Ray quality can all be stored onto your system, meaning that switching playback between different media has never been easier. With just the touch of a button, you can move from playing online music channels, to music from your music library, to pre-recorded television programs, to stored movies. The huge amount of storage space enables all your media to be accessible and available to you quickly and easily.

Another unique features is that the 312 case is two thirds the depth of standard home theater chassis. This is ideal if space is restricted. You will be wrong in thinking that corners have been cut to make the chassis smaller. In fact even with this smaller size the chassis can still accommodate full size ATX PSU's and Micro ATX motherboards.

At the size of about 2/3 that of the standard HTPC chassis, the Moncaso 312 boasts a much slimmer, space-efficient form.
