This stylish barebone has a proprietary cooling system for the CPU. The reviewer wouldn't recommend installing a large graphics card, if it has no cooling system that gets the hot air out of the case. There's the lack of an USB3 port, so you're not future proof with this case and the PSU cannot be switched off.

Overclocking:

In the Frequency Voltage Configuration sub-menu of the BIOS, it's possible to do some overclocking, which the reviewer only recommends with a dual core CPU, because of the heat it produces. The BCLK, the RAM speed and the voltages can be adjusted, the reviewers did not perform any overclocking.
