DarkFlash introduced several new cases across premium market segments at the 2025 International CES. We begin our tour with the new DY450, a spacious full-tower measuring 451 mm x 258 mm x 491 mm (DxWxH), with a 3-sided glasshouse (front, left side, and topside). These are interlocking glass panels, and not a seamless solution, however, the case has a pillarless edge. The motherboard tray serves up generous room for graphics cards up to 42 cm in length, and CPU coolers as tall as 18 cm. You can mount radiators along the side and the partition that separates the upper and lower compartments. The lower half has a front-facing fan controller with physical rotary knobs, and side-facing USB front-panel connectivity. The case comes in black and white trims.
Next up, is the DS900, a premium mid-tower that has a front-thru-left pillarless glasshouse. The case is smaller than the DY450, measuring 434 mm x 218 mm x 454 mm, with its motherboard tray giving you room for graphics cards up to 42.5 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 17 cm in height. The bottom compartment only has a PSU bay, and the frontal region of it is part of the main compartment, which gives the case room for a side-facing radiator with fans, and bottom-mounted drive bays if needed. The top panel lends itself as another 360 mm radiator mount.
The Arcee DY470 is a large artisanal case that's wide, but not wide enough for vertical expansion slots—you instead get a ton of crawlspace behind the motherboard tray. The case measures 473 mm x 298 mm x 497 mm. It features a pillarless glasshouse with front- and left side panels. The top and right sides have radiator mounts. The bottom of the case has an asymmetric design, and what looks like the front feet of the case actually has the front-panel USB and audio connectivity.
