MONTECH Launches the SKY TWO GX Cases

[btarunr]

MONTECH, a PC components and peripherals provider, announces an extreme version of the popular SKY TWO with an airflow-focused E-ATX case - the SKY TWO GX. The case supports up to 11 fans (3 pre-installed AX140 PWM ARGB) and the top clearance is increased to accommodate 66 mm radiator thickness and has 25 mm space for cable management. The SKY TWO features a 51% porosity mesh design on its front, top panel, and side of the PSU chamber. Support has been improved for high-end components, making this an extreme performance case starting at only US $89.

MONTECH has refined the GX edition to achieve enhancements based on insights from the original SKY TWO users. The height at the top has been increased by 10 mm, which allows it to accommodate radiators with a thickness of 66 mm. A 5 mm increase on the backside of the case for cable management, expanding the spacing to 25 mm. The glass panel has been improved with a beautifully designed handle and hinge for easy swivel access. The lower-side mesh panel is also available for quick access to the bottom chamber.



With an emphasis on the most optimal airflow, the SKY TWO GX comes pre-installed with three MONTECH AX140 PWM ARGB cooling fans. The case also adopts an easy-to-remove magnetically mounted mesh front panel with an impressive 51% porosity rate, ensuring excellent airflow, and exhausting hot air efficiently while maintaining a sleek and minimalistic aesthetic. High-efficiency mesh can also be found at the top panel, and the left side of the PSU chamber.

The SKY TWO GX accommodates up to 11 x 120 mm cooling fans, providing sufficient airflow for optimal cooling performance. The SKY TWO GX supports up to 360 mm on both the top and bottom, and CPU coolers with a maximum height of 168 mm. This case can also mount GPUs up to 400 mm in length, enabling users a wide range of options.

Located right beside the motherboard mounting location, an easy-to-remove side cover provides modularity to the SKY TWO GX. This multi-function cover enables the case to house up to SSI-EEB server-grade motherboards, a mounting space for extra storage, and can be removed to make space for installing two 120 mm cooling fans on the side.

Additional Accessory
The SKY TWO GX is vertical GPU mount-ready, users can express their building creativity.

Black: $89, White: $99.

A) Why $10 more for the white one...makes no sense since white paint is cheaper to make than black is because it requires less pigment), so wtf ?
B) Since they were updating it anyways, they should have made it support the soon-to-be new standard back-connector mobo's...f.A.i.L....

But at least the prices are reasonable and the "white" one is actually, like, WHITE, so there's that

There is, so far, absolutely no indication that back-connected motherboards will become standard anytime soon. The industry is still dragging its feet on 12VO power and THAT was actually supposed to be a new standard spec.

It wasn't supposed to be, it is a new standard, one that barely anyone is following but still a standard. Motherboards with connectors on the back is nothing but a silly idea one manufacturer had and the others decided to copy, with no standardized common specs whatsoever.

A case manufacturer that would want to support that would need to pick one of those few boards and design their case with that board in mind, maybe they get lucky and one or two other boards also fit, it's a ridiculous proposition
