ASUS Launches their ROG Strix Helios White Edition Chassis for Showcase Builds
The ROG Strix Helios is already available, but new to ASUS' ROG lineup is their new "White Edition" Helios variant. It's the same as ASUS' original Black Helios model in seemingly every way, aside from the case's new colour scheme. This new white version of the Strix Helios plays well with the enclosure's existing RGB features, as white can play well with every colour combination, and increase the impact of the case's pre-installed RGB lighting.
The case market is the final frontier of the PC market for ASUS' ROG brand, and the ROG Strix Helios steps in with full support for EATX motherboards and large water cooling radiators. The Strix Helios is a robust design, supporting large motherboards, heatsinks, graphics cars and water cooling radiators. This enclosure has more than enough space to accommodate any ROG series components.
The ROG Strix Helios is designed for showpiece systems, offering users integrated RGB lighting, twin tempered glass side panels and removable carry handles which enable users of the case to easily transport their systems to LAN parties or gaming events without much hassle. All LEDs within the Strix Helios are addressable, allowing users of the Helios to adjust their case lighting setup to meet their exacting specifications.
The Strix Helios is designed with ASUS' other components in mind, featuring support for a top-mounted 360mm radiator to support Ryoujin series liquid coolers and a power supply cut-out to expose the OLED screen that is included in ROG Thor power supplies. Water cooling wise the Helios supports a front-mounted 420mm radiator and up to a 360mm on the roof of the enclosure.
As we mentioned before, the Strix Helios is designed to accommodate up to EATX systems with custom water cooling loops and heavy-duty components; all while offering the ability to transport these heavy systems to events. To help achieve this goal, ASUS has integrated a graphics card brace into their case, which enabled up to two graphics cards to be supported, preventing GPU sag.
ASUS has also created their Helios case with an advanced front panel which features RGB controls, USB 3.1 Type-C connectivity and a fan controller. This comes in addition to four USB 3.0 Type-A connections, power/reset switches and headset/microphone audio jacks.
In the UK, ASUS currently sells its ROG Strix Helios chassis for £249.99. At this time it is unknown when this case's All White version will become available at UK retailers.

Edit: I often think:" Hmmm... I could mod it to make it right." But the amount of modding that needs to be done is just not worth it. I could easily design a case in Fusion 360 have it cut and assembled in less time than to mod failed product and have a much better case.Quote
