Introduction

I would like to thank Cate at Akasa Europe for supplying the review sample.

The Akasa Group of companies was founded in 1997 with offices in Taipei and London. The brand Akasa was launched in 2000. Akasa have been at the forefront of the Custom PC revolution, with the introduction of Extreme Coolers, for the overclocking fraternity, quickly followed by aerodynamic round cables and PAXmate sound absorption kits. These Akasa PC products are retailed through the leading on-street companies, they can also be found at the major e-retailers.

Akasa now has outlets in Asia Pacific, Middle East, Northern & Southern Europe, USA and South America. They have a production facility in China and OEM many products for leading brands.

Today we get to take a look at their newest ATX case - the Omega. It has the same roots as the Akasa Mirage we we reviewed in the past, but features numerous improvements and design changes.

Specifications

Packaging

Having the same roots as the Mirage-62, Akasa has chosen to continue the slogan "The coolest case ever". It now reads "The coolest case ever got cooler". While owners of the previous case may know what Akasa is talking about, those new to the series of enclosures may be wondering what they are referring to. The front has an image of the Omega case, while the rear goes into greater detail about the features and new additions of the chassis. The sides have a few additional images and also list the specifications in multiple languages.


Akasa has chosen to protect the Omega with fairly compact foam spacers and a heavy duty plastic bag.
