The video highlights new case developments from Computex 2025, including the Noctua edition of the Flux Pro with upgraded fans and color-matched panels, and the reimagined Anttech 900, a modernized, high-airflow case inspired by the classic design. It emphasizes the cases’ improved cooling, premium materials, and customizable features, with release details and pricing expected to be announced later in 2025.
The video covers new case developments showcased at Computex 2025, focusing on Antec’s upcoming products. One highlight is the Noctua edition of the Flux Pro, which has been upgraded with high-performance Noctua fans and new color-matched panels. The case retains its original design but now features brown steel components to match Noctua’s signature aesthetic, a process that required extensive manufacturing adjustments. The internal components, including fan hubs and upgraded G2 fans, aim to improve thermal performance and noise levels, with the case expected to retail around $300-$400 and launch in Q4 2025.
Additionally, Antec is reintroducing the classic Anttech 900 case, originally released in 2006. This new version aims to modernize the design while maintaining its vintage appeal, incorporating large aluminum panels, extensive ventilation, and flexible fan mounting options. The case will be available in two configurations: one with dual 200mm fans, possibly with Noctua branding, and another with a six-fan layout similar to the Flux Pro. The design emphasizes airflow, ease of maintenance, and support for larger motherboards, with pricing estimated to be around $300 or more.
The new Anttech 900 features a top panel with a large hole and dust filter, facilitating airflow and easy maintenance. Its interior includes a ventilated side panel, multiple SSD mounts, and a flexible drive and cable management system. The case supports various fan configurations, with removable fan rails allowing adjustments for different sizes, including 120mm, 140mm, and possibly 180mm or 200mm fans. The frame is primarily aluminum, with a steel motherboard tray, offering a premium, lightweight feel while potentially increasing costs due to material tariffs.
Design-wise, the case incorporates a large, easily accessible top panel that can be lifted for better access to water cooling components or open-loop setups. The bottom and side panels are perforated for enhanced airflow, especially important when using shroud top fans. The case also features a sizable glass side panel, rubber standoffs for the power supply, and multiple mounting points for SSDs. Overall, the design balances aesthetics, functionality, and cooling performance, targeting enthusiasts who want a high-performance, customizable case with a premium build.
The video concludes with the presenter expressing interest in testing the new Noctua Flux Pro to evaluate the performance gains from upgraded fans. They also mention that more details, including pricing and availability, will be revealed closer to release, likely towards the end of 2025. The presenter emphasizes ongoing coverage of Computex news, encourages viewers to support their content through Patreon or store purchases, and promises further updates as these new cases become available for review and benchmarking.
