Small Size, Big Performance
Building on the success of its larger sibling, the ProArt PA602, the PA401 offers a space-saving solution without compromising on capability. With its unique blend of sustainability and functionality, this chassis is the perfect fit for home offices and creative studios alike.
Craftsmanship Meets Sustainability
The PA401 Wood Edition stands out with its durable ash wood front panel, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council®. This eco-friendly material undergoes a six-stage refinement process, including thermowood treatment and a two-step coating, resulting in a panel that’s both artistic and professional in appearance.
Users can choose between two side panel options—tempered glass to showcase internal components or a metal panel for a sleek, minimalist finish.
Thermal Mastery
When it comes to cooling, the PA401 is a true powerhouse. Equipped with dual 160 x 32 mm front intake fans and a 120 mm rear exhaust fan, the chassis ensures consistent airflow of up to 138 CFM.
An open-grille design maximizes air intake, keeping components cool even during demanding workflows. Owners can easily toggle between fan modes using the PWM control on the front panel, adapting to different workloads effortlessly.
Builder-Friendly Design
ASUS prioritizes ease of use with the PA401’s tool-free design, enabling quick access to components and simplified cable management. Key features include:
- Vertical and horizontal GPU mounting options for flexibility.
- Detachable rear brackets for hassle-free power supply installation.
- Rear cable clips for tidy wiring.
- Dust filters at the front and bottom to maintain cleanliness.
Everyday Convenience
The PA401 doesn’t stop at functionality—it adds quality-of-life features that enhance day-to-day use. The front panel offers multiple connectivity options, including a USB 20 Gbps Type-C® port and two USB 3.0 Type-A ports. A lockable power button prevents accidental shutdowns during operation, while removable dust filters make maintenance simple.
Availability and Pricing
The ASUS ProArt PA401 Wood Edition (Black) will be available in the Philippines starting March 2025, with an MSRP of 6,690 PHP.
