Noctua has teased a new PC case with its signature brown color scheme, likely the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition featuring bundled NF-A14x25 G2 and NF-A12x25 G2 fans.

Austrian PC cooling specialist Noctua has shared a teaser image on social media, hinting at an upcoming PC case that appears to be a collaboration with Antec. The teaser, posted on X (formerly Twitter), shows the front I/O panel positioned at the top of the case, strongly suggesting this is the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition first revealed at Computex 2025.

The Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition case

The Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition builds upon the standard Antec Flux Pro full-tower chassis, but with several distinctive Noctua touches. Most notably, the case adopts Noctua's signature brown color scheme with wood trim accents on the front panel, creating a unique aesthetic that stands out in the typically black-and-white PC case market.

A key feature of this special edition is the inclusion of premium cooling components. The case ships with four Noctua NF-A14x25 G2 fans and two NF-A12x25 G2 fans, along with the NA-FH1 fan hub for centralized fan speed control. According to Noctua, the case has undergone extensive laboratory testing to optimize cooling performance while minimizing noise levels compared to the standard fan configuration.

In terms of specifications, the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition maintains the core features of the original Flux Pro. The case supports a multi-directional vent design that enables both vertical and horizontal airflow configurations. The bottom compartment houses the power supply unit with mesh ventilation and accommodates PSUs up to 180mm in length. The innovative iSHIFT PSU mount allows installation with the power supply facing the side panel, providing easier cable access.

Cooling flexibility is a strong point of this design. The case can accommodate up to 12 fans total, with three 120mm or 140mm fan mounts at the front, top, and above the power supply shroud. Additional mounting options include two 120mm or 140mm fans at the bottom and one in the rear. For liquid cooling enthusiasts, the case offers space for radiators up to 420mm in length.

Dust management features include 1.2mm fine mesh filters on the front and bottom panels. A small LED display on the front panel shows real-time CPU and GPU temperatures. The front I/O panel, positioned at the top as shown in the teaser, includes two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, a USB Type-C 10Gbps port, a headphone/mic combo jack, and a dedicated button to toggle the temperature LED display.

While the original Antec Flux Pro retails for approximately $180, industry speculation suggests the Noctua Edition will command a premium price, likely starting at $250 or higher, reflecting the included high-end fans and specialized design.

The case was initially expected to launch in late 2025 but appears to be moving toward production, with Noctua's teaser suggesting an imminent release announcement.
