The HFX Classic is the first full size media PC ATX heatsink case designed to be a truly silent.

One of the main features is that you can use any standard ATX equipment, PSU, motherboard and DVD writer. With its dimensions and the pure aluminium finish, the HFX Classic fits perfectly into any home HiFi environment. With its massive side heatsinks it will be cool virtually any system without any fan noise. The design is oriented to traditional home HiFi equipment. The cooling abilities are emphasised with huge aluminium heatsinks on each side and big venting holes on the top, that gives this PC the look of a high-end amplifier.

The front cover shows only two buttons and hides a DVD drive, VFD and IR behind a mirrored acrylic glass. Even the floppy disc, that is rarely used is placed on the rear of the case. The massive design is supported by the use of high-quality material. The heatsinks, front and top covers are made of pure aluminium. The front and the top covers both have a brushed aluminium effect while the heatsinks are black anodised aluminium. All sorts of DVD drives can be used, no slim type required. You only have to change the front bezel from the DVD drive with the mirrored acrylic glass.

The two buttons are reduced to a bare minimum. One button serves as the eject button for the DVD drive and the other button is the power switch. A reset switch can be found on the back of the case. To meet HiFi connectivity standards, four pairs of audio plugs are provided on the rear to exploit the whole HiFi potential out of the HFX Classic. The two large aluminium heatsinks found on the mCubed HFX Classic is act just like other high performance power amplifiers, the heat is dissipated over the heatsinks via natural air convection. The vertical heatsinks have a special rippled surface to enforce the convection. The heat generated by the processor is transferred to the right heatsink using heatpipes, which cools the CPU without any fans, so no noise!

The ATX standard is based on active cooling with cold air entering the system from the front and warm air being expelled at the rear, the HFX standard is based on natural air convection. This means that cool air enters from the bottom of the case and the warm air leaves the system by the grills on the top of the case. Therefore the mCubed HFX Classic provides a lot of air holes on the bottom and three huge venting holes on the top cover. For safety reasons (hot environment, insufficient air circulation) a 92mm Safety Control Kit can be added underneath the right venting hole. Recommended Optional Extras The HFX Classic is supplied as a bare case, therefore if you want to use the CPU heatpipe system that will attach to the side of the case then it will need to be purchased separately.
