The AIC RMC-4A has a the SSI-CEB form factor. Using the SSI-CEB standard, the case can house motherboards and power supplies with form factors ATX, E-ATX, Micro-ATX and XL-ATX. The dimensions of the case itself (LxWxH) are 510mm x 483mm x 177mm.
The AIC RMC-4A has seven expansion slots, so there is plenty of room for extra components, which may be a deciding factor when planning on the longevity and build type of a PC system. The case has three 5.25" drive bays, which is enough to house an optical drive and a couple of hard drives, but with just one 3.5" drive bay there is not much extra drive space available. What's more, there are no 2.5" drive bays, so mounting an SSD would require using an adapter and filling one of the few drive bays available.
Made primarily of Steel, the AIC RMC-4A is built to be strong and well-ventilated. Steel cases are generally fairly cheap and sturdy, but also tend to be quite heavy. Whatever your case's material, it is important to keep a consistent airflow so that heat doesn't build up inside. It is therefore advised that you make use of the available built-in case fans and fan installation sections.
