Slim Specifications

Engineered for Direct Airflow

The internal layout of the Focus 2 is designed to create a clear path for cool air. This innovative approach optimises direct cooling to your components. Because the chassis focuses on flow, building and upgrading inside is notably enjoyable. The sleek front mesh acts as a dust filter while allowing high airflow. This ensures your hardware stays cool without excessive dust buildup.

Extensive Water Cooling Support

This case supports radiators up to 360 mm in the front for maximum cooling potential. You can also install a 240 mm radiator at the top or a 120 mm unit at the rear. In practice, this flexibility allows for custom loops or all-in-one liquid coolers. It provides plenty of room for high-performance thermal solutions. The layout keeps tubes neat and routing manageable.

Show Off Your Components

The tempered glass side panel lets you showcase your internal hardware. A stylish cover panel is attached to the glass. This design allows for an open interior while still hiding cable connections. The result is a tidy build that looks professional. Solid steel construction adds durability without unnecessary weight.

Smart Internal Configuration

Storage installation is fast and tool-free. The case features SSD quick clips behind the motherboard panel. You can mount HDDs directly onto the motherboard tray. It accommodates two 3.5″ drives and six 2.5″ drives. A multibracket position on the bottom panel offers space for an additional drive. Note that multibrackets and the SSD bracket kit are sold separately.

Front Interface and Connectivity

The front I/O provides two USB 3.0 ports (5 Gb/s). It also includes microphone and headphone jacks. The RGB version features an addressable RGB controller. An optional USB-C upgrade kit is available separately. This kit adds a full-speed USB Type-C port to the front interface. Always verify the specific version included when purchasing.
