Akasa Unveils Innovative Fanless Chassis with Integrated LCD Displays at ISE 2026
At Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2026 in Barcelona, Akasa introduced a new lineup of passively-cooled PC cases featuring built-in LCD screens. The latest range includes three distinct models—Kepler, Maxwell Pro Plus, and Euler CMX—each designed to deliver efficient cooling and real-time system monitoring through their integrated displays.
Kepler: Rack-Mountable Fanless Chassis for Intel Platforms
The Kepler chassis stands out as a 2U rack-mountable solution engineered for microATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. It supports Intel LGA1851 and LGA1700 sockets, making it compatible with 12th, 13th, and 14th Generation Intel Core processors, as well as the latest 15th Generation "Arrow Lake" Core Ultra CPUs. Designed for completely silent operation, Kepler limits CPU TDP to 35 W, ensuring optimal thermal performance without active cooling. The chassis is equipped with a 150 W AC-to-DC power converter and accommodates up to four single-slot low-profile PCIe cards, providing flexibility for expansion in professional environments. The integrated LCD screen offers users a convenient interface for system monitoring and control.
Maxwell Pro Plus: Versatile Chassis for Intel and AMD Systems
Maxwell Pro Plus is a compact, fanless enclosure tailored for a broad range of applications, including digital signage, industrial control panels, and professional AV setups. Unlike the rack-mountable Kepler, Maxwell Pro Plus is designed for desktop or embedded use. It supports Intel LGA1151, LGA1200, and LGA1700 sockets, as well as AMD AM4 and AM5 platforms, making it suitable for both Intel and AMD processors. With support for CPUs up to 65 W TDP, this chassis is ideal for systems requiring light graphics processing, such as those powered by AMD APUs. The built-in LCD display enhances usability by providing real-time system information and status updates.
Euler CMX: Compact 4.0-Liter Fanless Chassis for Industrial Applications
The Euler CMX is a new addition to Akasa’s fanless chassis lineup, featuring a compact 4.0-liter design. It supports Intel LGA115X, LGA1200, LGA1700, and LGA1851 sockets, optimized for CPUs with a 35 W TDP. The chassis includes a robust 220 W DC-to-DC power converter, ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments. Its integrated LCD screen delivers real-time data display, making it well-suited for industrial automation, point-of-sale systems, kiosks, digital signage, educational technology, surveillance, and transportation applications.
Akasa’s latest fanless chassis solutions demonstrate a commitment to silent operation, energy efficiency, and enhanced system monitoring. By integrating LCD screens into passively-cooled enclosures, these new models address the needs of professionals seeking reliable, low-maintenance hardware for a variety of specialized environments.
