Akasa Launches Euler TX3 Fanless Thin Mini-ITX Industrial Case

Akasa, a leading provider of thermal solutions, have announced the Euler TX3, an aluminium fanless case designed for Thin Mini-ITX motherboards. Utilizing passive cooling, the Euler TX3 supports Intel Core (8th-14th Gen) and Core Ultra (15th Gen) processors up to 35 W TDP. With a compact volume of only 3.9L, the case is well-suited for industrial automation, point-of-sale (POS), kiosk, digital signage or other commercial systems that require long operational life and minimal maintenance.

The enclosure's fully fanless design utilizes an aluminium thermal module to transfer heat efficiently from the CPU to the external aluminium fins, while eliminating noise and mechanical failure points, ensuring stable and long-term performance. The design incorporates Akasa's patented spring mounting system to ensure reliable thermal contact and compatibility across a diverse range of Thin Mini-ITX form factor boards.

Product Page Details New "White Edition" ASUS ROG STRIX B850-I GAMING WIFI Board

Last month, ASUS started a teaser campaign that alluded to a brand-new ROG Mini motherboard design. Promo material provided a very pixellated preview of a pale Mini-ITX form factor product. Earlier this week, a single render leaked out—image quality was good enough to identify the unreleased SKU as a white spin-off of the already launched Strix B850-I Gaming WiFi7 board design. At some point within the past couple of days, the main ASUS web presence was updated with a dedicated "W" model product page. We suspect that their next move will be the publication of press material, unless staffers deem this SKU's slight redecoration unworthy of such attention. Annoyingly, the White Edition's detailed web portal does not provide a clear view of the board's back section.

Unsurprisingly, the Taiwanese manufacturer has rolled out the standard black variant's exact same description and specs: "(our latest model) integrates cutting-edge technology into a sleek Mini-ITX form factor. It features PCIe 5.0 slots for graphics and storage, dual-channel DDR5 slots and robust power delivery for top-tier gaming and heavy workloads. Meanwhile, advanced cooling solutions maintain peak performance, and Wi-Fi 7 ensures ultra-fast connectivity. This platform delivers the power and connectivity that advanced AI PC applications demand." One major difference, at least on digital paper, is the White Edition's deployment of a "64 MB BIOS." The larger ASUS BIOS chip is advertised as offering a "more powerful interface" and "support for future AM5 processors."

Thermaltake Launches New S380 TG ARGB Mid-Tower PC Case

Thermaltake, a leading PC DIY brand for premium hardware solutions, is pleased to introduce the S380 TG ARGB Mid-Tower Chassis, available in Black and Snow. Designed for users who value both performance and simplicity, the S380 TG ARGB combines an elegant minimalist mesh front panel with high airflow design, delivering a chassis that's as efficient as it is refined. Behind its clean exterior lies a layout optimized for cooling and component compatibility. The S380 TG ARGB supports Mini-ITX, microATX, and ATX motherboards, including the latest hidden-connector motherboard designs such as ASUS BTF, MSI Project Zero, and GIGABYTE Project Stealth. Dedicated cutouts along the motherboard tray ensure tidy cable routing and a clean interior.

To achieve high thermal performance, the chassis comes pre-installed with a SF360 ARGB PWM Reverse Fan on the PSU cover and a SF120 ARGB PWM fan at the rear, providing immediate and balanced airflow. The reverse fan directs cool air toward the GPU area, maximizing graphics card cooling efficiency. Builders can further expand cooling with support for up to ten 120 mm fans or dual 360 mm radiators installed on the top and front simultaneously.

SilverStone Expands Vintage Case Series with the FLP03 microATX Chassis

SilverStone has introduced the FLP03, the latest entry in its retro-inspired case lineup. The new model follows the FLP01 HTPC case, released late in 2024, and the FLP02, released earlier this year, continuing the same 1980s office-tower aesthetic, beige plastics, and flat front panel. The FLP03 shown at EXPO 2025 in Japan measures 220 × 456 × 477 mm and supports microATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. It includes three external 5.25-inch bays that can be adapted for 2.5-inch drives, plus internal mounts for 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch storage. Cooling is handled by a 180 mm front fan, room for three 120 mm or two 140 mm fans up top, and a 120 mm fan at the rear. The top panel can also accommodate a 360 mm radiator, though installing it occupies one of the 5.25-inch bays.

Despite the vintage look, component support is generous. The case fits GPUs up to 412 mm long and 156 mm wide, and CPU coolers up to 171 mm tall with the expansion-card retainer installed (167 mm without it). It offers five expansion slots, ATX PSU support up to 180 mm, and a front I/O panel with USB-C, dual USB 3.0, audio, and mic ports. SilverStone maintained that classic-retro front panel with a Turbo button, which pushes all PWM fans to their max speed, a built-in numeric display that shows CPU frequency, power and reset buttons, plus a special key lock. Pricing and availability have not yet been announced; however, IT Home reports that the case is scheduled to be available in Japan around February or March 2026. Regarding pricing, since the bigger SilverStone FLP02 chassis has an MSRP of $239.99, it can be safe to assume that the FLP03 will be a bit cheaper, likely around $199.

Colorful Launches SMART 900 Mini PC, Powered by Flagship Ryzen AI "Strix Halo" APU

Chinese tech news sites have alluded to the launch of Colorful's brand-new SMART 900 Mini PC in the region. Oddly, the company's various web presences and social media accounts do not mention this diminutive 4-liter (volume) product. At last month's Computex trade show, the TechPowerUp crew happened upon a preview unit—dubbed generically as a "Mini AI PC." The latest press material confirms Colorful's selection of AMD's top-flight 16-core Ryzen AI Max+ 395 APU. The Team Red "Strix Halo" mobile series leverages "Zen 5" processor cores and RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics solutions. Colorful has joined a small club of Mini PC providers that deal in Ryzen AI Max-equipped hardware. GMKtec seems to be leading this pack; with last month's global release of configurable EVO-X2 Mini PC pre-builds (starting at $1499).

Zotac is readying a competing Magnus EA (2025) range; the TPU team encountered a 12-core Ryzen AI Max 390-equipped example at Computex 2025. In North America, Framework is still working on getting its "4.5L Mini-ITX" Desktop out of the door—hopefully by the third quarter of this year. Colorful's SMART 900 Mini PC design sports a high quality anodized aluminium chassis. An "excellent" heat dissipation solution is advertised as taking: "advantage of the metal body—ensuring that the system can maintain a low operating temperature and a relatively reasonable noise level under high load." Rival manufacturers have outlined memory configurations of 64 GB or 128 GB LPDDR5X, but Colorful has opted for an unusual in-between 96 GB setup. At the time of writing, no SMART 900 Mini PC pricing information was included in local media reports.
