If you’re on the hunt for a case that combines the compact size of the microATX
standard with a sleek, modern design, the Helio is an excellent choice. Its finish
echoes the look of the Palum – Krux’s first case with wooden accents on the front
panel. The Helio carries the same distinctive style, but in a smaller form factor,
making it a great fit for professional offices and gaming rooms where a unique
aesthetic matters.
Wooden elegance in a compact form
A small microATX case can look just as refined as larger ones. With its minimalist
front panel accented with dark wooden slats, it blends seamlessly into any
workspace, living room or gaming setup. A tempered glass side panel gives a clear
view of the interior, while the rounded edges add a touch of softness and modern
flair. A PC built in the Krux Helio won’t just be a machine – it’ll be a statement
piece looking right at home surrounded by stylish furniture.
microATX with room for up to 8 fans
Out of the box, the Helio comes equipped with a rear-mounted 120 mm PWM fan,
offering precise speed control to help keep your rig cool right from the start. But
if your build demands more airflow, there’s plenty of room to scale up. The case
supports up to eight 120 mm fans – three in the front, two at the bottom, two on
top (wherey you can also fit 140 mm fans), and one in the back. This is an
impressively capable cooling setup, especially for a microATX chassis.
Dust protection done right
With plenty of perforations throughout the case, airflow is optimized to maintain
low temperatures – and to keep your components clean, a mesh filter acts as a
barrier against dust buildup. The front panel, featuring the signature wooden slats,
is secured with snap-on mounts, so you can remove it in one easy motion.
Whether you're cleaning the filters or installing front fans, access is quick and
hassle-free.
Compact case, big potential
The Krux Helio is a microATX case (also compatible with Mini-ITX boards) that
offers plenty of room for all your essential components. Inside, you'll find space
for graphics cards up to 320 mm long, power supplies up to 170 mm, and CPU
coolers as tall as 175 mm. Storage isn’t an issue either – the layout can
accommodate two 3.5" drives and one 2.5" drive, as well as up to eight fans, and
radiators in 120 mm, 240 mm, or 280 mm formats.
I/O panel right where you need it
Instead of the usual top or front placement, the Krux Helio’s I/O panel is positioned
on the side, closer to the bottom edge. This smart design choice gives you easier
access to ports – especially when the case is sitting on your desk, which is often
the go-to setup for compact microATX builds. You get a USB-C 2.0 port, a highspeed USB-A 3.0, a 3.5 mm combo audio jack, and dedicated power and reset
buttons, all within easy reach.
