SHERIDAN, WYOMING – October 30, 2024 – ASUS today announced the ProArt PA602 Wood Edition, a PC case that enhances the aesthetics and sustainability of the original creator-focused PA602 chassis with parts made of wood.

"A classic material for contemporary luxury," says ASUS.

The ProArt PA602 Wood Edition seamlessly integrates wooden pieces into the design. It features long handles along the top edge, a wood backdrop for the front I/O panel, and long wood pieces for the ventilated front panel.

Sustainable and Durable Wood Construction

The wood used is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®), ensuring it comes from responsibly managed forests. Ash wood is chosen for its superior hardness and durability. The wood undergoes a thermowood treatment to enhance its durability further. Each piece is shaped and surface-ground to exact specifications, then coated to highlight the natural wood grain and provide a low-sheen finish.

Exceptional Cooling Performance

The ProArt PA602 Wood Edition offers excellent cooling capabilities. It has an open-grille front panel with wide venting slots for optimal airflow. Two pre-installed 200 mm ProArt fans behind the grille provide high airflow while remaining quiet. A 140 mm rear fan helps exhaust heat and can spin down for silent operation.

Inside the chassis, dual air deflectors direct cooling air where it's needed most. A panel along the motherboard tray guides airflow for the CPU and power delivery circuitry, while the PSU shroud directs airflow toward the graphics card.

Flexible Side Panel Options

The ProArt PA602 Wood Edition offers two side panel choices: a metal panel for cooling efficiency and durability or a tempered-glass panel to showcase the PC's components. The tempered-glass panel has a perforated insert for additional GPU cooling.

Easy Fan Control and Expansion

An embedded PWM hub supports up to six fans, simplifying cable management and cooling optimization. A front-panel button allows users to switch between maximum airflow and automatic mode.

Hassle-Free PC Building

The ProArt PA602 Wood Edition simplifies PC building with ample space for large components, including EATX motherboards, tower coolers, and liquid cooling radiators. It accommodates even the largest graphics cards, thanks to an embedded graphics card holder.

Ample Storage Options

The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch SSDs and four 3.5-inch HDDs, providing plenty of storage space.

Tool-less Design

The ProArt PA602 minimizes the need for tools during PC building and maintenance. Side panels release with a single button press, and the patented Tool-Free Graphics Card Slot Clamp allows for easy installation of PCIe® add-in cards.

Convenient Connectivity

The front panel offers a variety of USB ports, including a USB 20 Gbps Type-C® port, for connecting peripherals and external storage devices.

Dust-Resistant Design

Detachable dust filters and a patented dust detection system with an LED indicator help keep the chassis clean.

A Refined Choice for Creative Professionals

The ProArt PA602 Wood Edition is an ideal choice for creative professionals, offering ample space, powerful cooling, and convenient features in a sophisticated design.
