Fractal Design Outs Focus 2 Case Series

btarunr · Aug 17, 2022

The new Focus 2 mid-tower cases offer a precise, straight-forward design which has been carefully engineered to leverage the airflow potential of the case. Its innovative approach to the interior layout creates an unobstructed flow throughout the case, making it enjoyable to build and upgrade in, while unlocking the ability to cool components directly. This performance-centric design helps to enable a smooth experience, allowing users to focus on what's important to them.

Out of the box, its quality construction, clean exterior and airflow-enabling front mesh make Focus 2 a serious choice for gaming systems. Inside, it also offers quality-of-life building features such as an open and accessible interior, SSD quick clips, and intuitive cable management options. One of the many user benefits of Focus 2 is its adaptability and upgradeability, with available accessories including storage expansions and a USB-C upgrade kit.

Fractal loves micro transactions, wont be surprised in future if front Io becomes optional add ons with separate options for usb, audio, etc...

It’s their budget series… Makes sense to me to sell add-ons so people can save money, assuming they’re actually available. Then, you can probably do better for $20 more… At least the fans are decent
