Montech is one of the newer players in the PC hardware business (though, with 8 years under their belt, I’m not so sure “new” is the best way to describe them). They’ve made their splash with a number of popular case designs and are now working towards entering one new product line each year to expand its presence to being a one stop shop for all of your PC hardware needs. Their focus is to provide a high value product at a very affordable price.
HyperFlow ARGB AIO CPU Coolers
Just before Computex this year, Montech launched its HyperFlow ARGB AIO CPU Cooler line that includes both 240mm and 360mm radiator flavors. These AIOs carry a 6 year warranty, come in both black and white configurations and are allegedly good performers. Montech expects the 360mm flavor to land around $97 as its MSRP and the 240mm flavor to be about $10 under that. These are on our short list to review as the competition for sub $100 AIO units has been heating up quite a bit over the past year.
Montech Cases
Montech had cases for days across its booth – we’ll step through a few of the more interesting ones to get a feel for what they have coming soon.
HS01 Mini
Starting off with one of the more unique cases that we saw at Computex this year is the Montech HS01 Mini, which is due out towards the end of this year. It features a faux leather lining along with a handle that sets it apart from the typical case that we’ve seen – it’s like Montech skipped the current wood craze and went straight to pleather. This is a MATX/ITX sized case that is expected to sell for just under $100 when it hits the market.
Sky 3
Next up we have the Montech Sky 3 case which is a mid tower case that will be offered in both black and white flavors. It features a curved glass front and room for plenty of cooling. The unique part of this is the intake scoop that pulls in fresh air from the bottom front and points it straight towards your GPU’s hang out spot. It’ll be interesting to see if this makes a difference in overall performance when the case lands on the market in Q2 of next year for an expected $120 or so.
King 95 Mega Pro
The King 95 Pro has been a pretty big hit for Montech, so the logical thing for them to do is to find a word like Mega and add it to the overall name to arrive at the King 95 Mega Pro. In order to make it more mega, the case grows a bit so it can accommodate a larger CPU cooler (by 5mm) and a longer GPU (by 80mm). It has also upped the ante on fans, making room for a few more with its added size, including support for a 420mm AIO radiator. This is expected to land in Q2 of 2025 for around $200.
