Affordable Case and PSU Combo for Everyday PC Builds
The CiT Jet Stream is designed for users who want a simple, practical case with a power supply already included. This makes it a useful option for basic home PCs, office computers, repair jobs, student systems and entry-level desktop builds where keeping the total build cost low is important.
Because the PSU is already included, the Jet Stream can reduce the number of separate parts needed for a basic build. This is useful for users replacing an older case, building a general-purpose desktop, or creating a low-cost PC for browsing, documents, email, media playback and light everyday tasks.
Good for Home, Office and Student Systems
The black and silver design gives the case a clean look that works well in offices, bedrooms and home workspaces. The solid side panel keeps the appearance simple, without RGB lighting or a tempered glass window, making it better suited to practical desktop systems than showcase gaming builds.
Motherboard Support for ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX
The CiT Jet Stream supports ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards, giving builders flexibility across common desktop board sizes. This means it can be used for a full-size ATX build, a smaller Micro-ATX system, or a compact Mini-ITX setup inside a mid tower chassis.
Before ordering, always check your motherboard size, power connector requirements, CPU cooler height, graphics card length and storage layout to make sure all parts will fit comfortably.
500W Power Supply Included
This version of the CiT Jet Stream includes a 500W power supply. This makes it a convenient case-and-PSU option for basic desktop systems and low-to-mid power builds. It is best suited to everyday PCs, office computers and entry-level systems rather than high-end gaming PCs with demanding graphics cards.
Important PSU Compatibility Note
The included PSU is useful for simple systems, but buyers should check the power requirements of their CPU, graphics card, drives and accessories before purchase. For modern high-performance graphics cards, a higher-quality dedicated PSU with the correct PCIe connectors and efficiency certification may be more suitable.
Front I/O for Everyday Connectivity
The front panel includes 1 x USB 3.0, 1 x USB 2.0, HD audio and microphone connections. This gives convenient access for USB memory sticks, keyboards, mice, webcams, headsets, speakers and other everyday peripherals.
The inclusion of USB 3.0 is useful for faster file transfers with compatible USB storage devices compared with USB 2.0.
Cooling Support and Included Rear Fan
The CiT Jet Stream includes 1 x 80mm rear fan for basic exhaust airflow. It also supports an optional 1 x 120mm front fan and 2 x 120mm side fans, giving builders the option to improve cooling if the system uses warmer components.
Fan Support

No. The CiT Jet Stream is generally listed with a solid side panel rather than a tempered glass showcase panel. It is designed more for practical budget builds than display-style RGB systems.
34. Is the CiT Jet Stream good for a clean professional-looking PC?
Yes. The black body with silver front detailing gives it a simple and professional look, making it suitable for home offices, business desktops, school computers, reception PCs, and users who do not want a flashy RGB gaming case.
35. What colour is the CiT Jet Stream case?
The case is black with silver front detailing. It is designed to look simple and clean rather than heavily styled or RGB-focused.
36. What are the dimensions of the CiT Jet Stream?
Listings commonly show the product dimensions as approximately 198mm x 418mm x 415mm. Always check your available desk or floor space and confirm component clearance before building.
37. How heavy is the case?
The case is commonly listed with a net weight of around 3.9kg. Final system weight will depend on the motherboard, PSU, graphics card, drives, cooler, and fans installed.
38. How many expansion slots does the case have?

40. Is cable management easy in this case?
It is manageable for basic builds, but it will not be as spacious as a modern premium case. Because the PSU is included and cables may be fixed, unused cables should be tied back neatly to avoid blocking airflow.
41. Can I install SSDs in this case?
Yes. The case can be used with SATA SSDs if your motherboard and PSU have the correct SATA data and power connections. M.2 SSDs can also be used if your motherboard supports them, as they install directly onto the motherboard.
42. Can I install hard drives in this case?
Yes. This style of mid tower case is suitable for traditional 3.5-inch hard drives and 2.5-inch SSDs, depending on the internal drive bay layout. Check the exact drive bay positions before planning multiple drives.
43. Can I use this case for a home server or storage PC?
It can be used for a basic home server or storage PC if the drive layout, cooling, and PSU are suitable. For many hard drives or 24/7 use, a case with better airflow, more drive bays, and a higher-quality PSU may be a better choice.
44. Can I use this case for a student PC?
Yes. The case is a practical option for a student desktop because it includes a power supply, supports common motherboard sizes, has front USB ports, and keeps the build cost down.
45. Can I use this case for a repair or rebuild?
Yes. The CiT Jet Stream can be useful for replacing a damaged old PC case or rebuilding an existing ATX, Micro-ATX, or Mini-ITX system into a fresh chassis with a included 500W PSU.
46. Is the included PSU suitable for old components?
It may be suitable for many older desktop systems, depending on connector requirements. Older systems may need Molex, SATA, or specific CPU/GPU power connections, so check the motherboard, drives, and graphics card before installation.
47. Can I use this case without the included PSU?
Yes. You can remove the included PSU and install a different compatible ATX PSU if you prefer a higher-efficiency, modular, or higher-wattage power supply for your build.
48. Is the PSU modular?
Included PSUs in budget case bundles are usually non-modular, meaning the cables are fixed to the power supply. This is fine for basic builds, but unused cables need to be managed inside the case.
49. Does the included PSU have enough connectors for a graphics card?
Connector availability can vary by PSU version, so check the exact included PSU cable set before using a graphics card that needs PCIe power. Some low-power GPUs do not need extra PCIe power, while gaming GPUs often require 6-pin or 8-pin connectors.
50. What should I do if my GPU needs more power connectors?
If your graphics card needs connectors that the included PSU does not provide, do not force adapters unless the GPU and PSU are suitable. The safer option is to upgrade to a quality ATX PSU with the correct native PCIe power connectors.
51. Can I use this case with a modern Ryzen or Intel build?
Yes. The case can house modern AMD Ryzen or Intel systems as long as the motherboard form factor, CPU cooler height, PSU requirements, and graphics card dimensions fit. The case does not determine CPU compatibility; the motherboard does.
52. Can I install an AIO liquid cooler in this case?
This case is not ideal for AIO liquid cooling because fan and radiator support is limited compared with modern gaming cases. It is better suited to stock coolers and compact air coolers. Check exact radiator clearance before planning any liquid cooler installation.
53. Can I install a 240mm radiator in this case?
The CiT Jet Stream is not commonly listed with 240mm radiator support. If you need a 240mm AIO, choose a case specifically designed with top or front 240mm radiator mounting support.
54. Is this case quiet?
Noise depends on the PSU fan, case fans, CPU cooler, GPU cooler, and system load. The simple solid-panel design may be quieter than some fully mesh cases, but the included fan and PSU quality will affect real-world noise levels.
55. How can I improve cooling in this case?
Add a front 120mm intake fan, upgrade the rear fan if needed, keep cables tidy, clean dust regularly, use an efficient CPU cooler, and avoid very hot high-end graphics cards unless the airflow and PSU are upgraded accordingly.
56. Is this case good for integrated graphics builds?
Yes. It is well suited to integrated graphics builds using CPUs such as AMD Ryzen G-series or Intel CPUs with built-in graphics. These systems usually need less airflow and PSU headroom than gaming PCs with dedicated graphics cards.
57. Is this case good for a PC with no dedicated graphics card?
Yes. For office, home, web browsing, school, light media, and admin systems without a dedicated GPU, the CiT Jet Stream is a practical budget case with enough space for standard desktop components.
58. CiT Jet Stream vs a gaming case with mesh front — which is better?
Choose the CiT Jet Stream if you want a simple value case with an included PSU for basic or budget builds. Choose a mesh-front gaming case if you need stronger airflow, better cooling, more fan positions, tempered glass, RGB support, and better compatibility with high-power gaming hardware.
59. CiT Jet Stream with 500W PSU vs buying case and PSU separately — which is better?
The CiT Jet Stream bundle is better for low-cost convenience because the case and PSU come together. Buying a case and PSU separately is better if you want a specific 80+ efficiency rating, modular cables, stronger GPU support, quieter operation, or a premium branded PSU.
60. Who is the CiT Jet Stream case best for?
The CiT Jet Stream is best for users building a budget office PC, home computer, student desktop, repair system, integrated graphics PC, or entry-level gaming build where a simple mid tower case with included 500W PSU is useful.
61. Who is this case not for?
