Antec and Noctua Introduce Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition PC Chassis
Taiwanese PC case specialist Antec and Austrian quiet cooling expert Noctua have teamed up to create a custom, further refined Noctua Edition of Antec’s award-winning Flux Pro chassis. Upgrading the Flux Pro with Noctua’s latest NF-A14x25 G2 and NF-A12x25 G2 flagship fans for even better low-noise cooling performance, the new Noctua Edition forms an ideal basis for ultra-quiet, high-end builds.
“Antec has been at the forefront of PC case design for more than two decades, and we’re excited to collaborate with such a renowned, iconic manufacturer to introduce the very first Noctua Edition chassis,” says Roland Mossig (Noctua CEO). “The Flux Pro has been rightfully praised for its exceptional quiet cooling potential, so it was an obvious candidate for the project. Once we integrated our latest flagship fans and saw how much further we could reduce noise levels while maintaining similar component temperatures, it quickly became clear that this is a worthy Noctua Edition.”
“Being chosen for Noctua’s first edition chassis is a genuine privilege for all of us at Antec. The Flux Pro was built to be a best-in-class foundation for quiet, high performance systems, and working with Noctua lets us take that experience even further”, says Frank Lee (Antec CEO). “This collaboration reflects the engineering standards both brands stand for, and we are proud to bring the Flux Pro Noctua Edition to builders who want top tier cooling with remarkably low noise.”
Antec’s Flux Pro chassis is renowned for its excellent ventilation capabilities, yet the Noctua Edition further improves its outstanding performance-to-noise efficiency by reducing noise levels up to 8dB(A), all while keeping internal components at similar temperatures. This is made possible by Noctua’s state-of-the-art NF-A14x25 G2 and NF-A12x25 G2 fans, which run significantly quieter when operating at the same flow rates.
Adjacent fans are offset in speed to avoid undesirable harmonics phenomena such as vibrations or periodic humming, and for further acoustic optimisation, customers can install the fans using the included NA-AV4 anti-vibration mounts. Alternatively, the fans can also be installed using screws for maximum safety during shipping or transport.
In addition to Noctua’s latest G2 series fans, the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition also integrates the premium-grade NA-FH1 fan hub, which allows all fans to be speed-controlled through a single motherboard fan header. The NA-FH1 comes pre-installed, and all the required fan extension cables are pre-routed for maximum convenience.
On top of its best-in-class cooling performance, the Flux Pro has received critical acclaim for its build quality, well-thought-out layout, comprehensive feature-set and adaptability, making it a fantastic basis for both air- and water-cooled builds. Whether it’s a hardcore gaming rig or a high-end workstation – building within the Flux Pro will be a pleasure.
Reflecting its inner virtues on the outside, the Flux Pro Noctua Edition comes with dark brown accents on the side and top panel as well as brown silicone grommets and subtly placed Noctua logos on the top, side and front. Wearing its colours with pride, the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition is the perfect choice for everyone who wants to build a high-performance system that runs as quiet as possible.
