ASUS has introduced the ProArt PA401 Wood Edition chassis, a sleek and compact variant of the ProArt PA602 Wood Edition. Designed for creatives, professionals, and PC enthusiasts, this ATX mid-tower case balances high-performance cooling with a refined aesthetic. Whether for a home office or a studio, the PA401 seamlessly integrates into any workspace while providing robust cooling and build-friendly features.
Minimalist Elegance with Premium Materials
The ProArt PA401 Wood Edition stands out with its ash wood front panel, adding a sophisticated touch to modern workspaces. Certified by the FSC for sustainability, this wood goes through a meticulous six-stage treatment, including thermowood processing and a protective two-step coating that enhances its natural grain and ensures durability.
To cater to different preferences, ASUS offers two side panel options—a metal panel for durability and a sleek black finish or a tempered glass panel to showcase internal components with style.
Efficient Cooling and Silent Performance
Designed for optimal airflow, the PA401 features an open-grille front panel paired with dual 160 x 32mm intake fans, delivering up to 138 CFM of cooling power.
A pre-installed 120mm rear exhaust fan ensures efficient heat dissipation, keeping components at safe temperatures during demanding workloads.
Users can fine-tune their cooling setup with an integrated PWM fan control, allowing seamless switching between low-noise operation and maximum cooling performance based on workload demands.
User-Friendly Build Experience
ASUS has designed the PA401 with tool-free access to simplify the assembly process. A quick-release side panel mechanism allows instant entry to the interior, while a left-side panel lock provides additional security.
For effortless power supply installation, the rear bracket is detachable, enabling users to slide the PSU into place with ease. The tool-free 3.5-inch HDD bays further enhance convenience, making storage upgrades hassle-free.
Smart Cable Management and Versatile GPU Orientation
Built for clean and organized setups, the PA401 includes rear cable clips that keep wires neat and secure. Additionally, users can install their graphics card vertically or horizontally, depending on personal preference and case layout.
Enhanced Connectivity and Practical Features
The PA401 is equipped with multiple front-panel ports, including USB 20Gbps Type-C® for ultra-fast data transfers and two USB 3.0 Type-A ports for additional device connectivity.
To prevent accidental power shutdowns, ASUS has included a physical lock latch that secures the power and reset buttons. Additionally, removable dust filters on the front and bottom help maintain a dust-free environment for long-term performance.
For those needing even more space and connectivity, ASUS recommends the ProArt PA602 Wood Edition, which expands on the PA401’s elegant design with additional internal room for larger components.
