270° Seamless Glass Design

The Elite 681 features dual tempered glass panels with precision 45° bevels, creating an uninterrupted panoramic view of your build. This seamless design eliminates visual breaks, allowing your RGB lighting and component layout to shine through from every angle. The high-quality glass construction not only looks premium but also provides structural rigidity to the chassis.

True Dual-Chamber Cooling Layout

A separate chamber for the motherboard and another for the PSU/cabling creates optimal airflow paths. This intelligent design prevents hot air from the power supply recirculating through your GPU and CPU, while the 95mm cable management clearance keeps everything neat and organized. The result is cooler temperatures and easier maintenance access.

Extreme Cooling Compatibility

With support for up to 10 fans and multiple radiator configurations, the Elite 681 handles even the most demanding cooling setups. You can install dual 360mm radiators at the top and bottom, plus a 280mm radiator on the side panel. This extensive cooling support makes it ideal for custom water loops or high-performance AIO coolers, ensuring your components stay cool under heavy loads.

Next-Gen Connectivity & ARGB Lighting

The case comes equipped with USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C (20Gbps) and dual USB 3.0 ports for ultra-fast data transfers. Four pre-installed ARGB fans (3 reverse intake + 1 exhaust) feature daisy-chaining capability and full motherboard lighting synchronization, allowing you to create stunning lighting effects that match your build’s theme.
