Akasa updates Eclipse case series - better cooling, new PSU clamp


We hat a good close look at the Mirage-62, which is based on the same inner layout as the Eclipse case. Akasa has taken the original design and improved it at certain areas. The new Eclipse-62 V2 comes with two 120 mm fans for better, quieter cooling, an air vent on top of the case and a new adjustable clamp to secure the PSU to the top of the chassis. Look for the case at your favorite (r)etailer soon.

1st response was omg

not so omg ;)

I think its still a good buy but at this point am looking at Antec and Silverstone products.... antec more they seem to be the only ones innovating and interested in quality and features.
 
Was hoping for a brushed aluminium front.... :(
Would give an arm for one of those.
Don't quite see what the psu bracket is for. never had a problem with how it is now.
 
See they havent bothered to listen to existing customers/ or why there was reason to bring out a newer case.

The front still plastic and uber ugly.

Shame there not like other companies that innovate ;)

Agreed, would finsh the case off.

The vent at the top is needed. The case seems to build a lot of hot excess air around the top.
 
Nope not in mine what power supply do you have
no heat build up what so ever in my eclipse at the top.
the psu is barely even warm when i take the top off.
Tbh honest i don't see the point in what they have done
if you want blowholes at top simply cut them yourself
agreed needs a front that looks like a silverstone tj10 or lian li.
But then i didn't buy it for it's looks will keep it until
that lian li i posted is a lot cheaper.

Theres hardly any vents at the rear of the PSU, its just sucking from the bottom. Not a problem tho, getting good temps with two Akasa Ambers.
 
Lol so you spend a lot of time looking at your pc case?
Sorry but i just don't understand people who want designer looks
on a case give me performance over looks any day.
