DeepCool MORPHEUS PC Case Review
One Case – Three Configurations
DeepCool’s Morpheus has three forms
DeepCool’s Morpheus has three forms. We will call these “Standard”, “Chimney”, and “dual-chambered” for simplicity. In the case’s stock configuration, the Morpheus looks like most modern PC cases. We have a PSU shroud, a 120/140mm rear fan mount, and a fan mounts in their usual locations. What makes the Morpheus different to most standard PC cases is its size. This case supports large fans in many locations. It supports GPUs up to 480mm in length. The case support EATX motherboards. The Morpheus even supports up to four 420mm liquid cooling radiators.
Chimney Layout
So what do we mean by “Chimney” here? In this layout, the main airflow pattern of the Morpheus is from the bottom up, like a chimney. Your PSU is moved from the bottom of your case to the front. This give you space for three 140mm fans at the bottom of the Morpheus, and space for three 140mm fans at the top. Yes, you can still mount fans at the front and side of the Morpheus, but bottom up will be your primary airflow direction.
Dual Chambered Layout
The Morpheus’ final layout is a dual-chambered layout. This layout requires users to install an entirely new backplate into the case. This new plate moves the Morpheus’ motherboard tray forward, creating enough space to mount your power supply behind it. This creates space for a huge number of fans, allowing users to create super high airflow PC builds.
This layout allows users to create super-clean PC builds that focus on airflow. Liquid cooling enthusiasts can also use this config to install a huge number of radiators. If you want maximum airflow, this may be the configuration for you. That said, this config limits the size of your CPU cooler and graphics card (if it is not vertically mounted).
