A compact, 21.5-kilogram copper housing is designed to cool both the processor and the graphics card entirely without a fan, dissipating 250 watts of power loss - enough to reach the performance of a mid-range gaming computer.

The FanlessVC2300S DT PC case is relatively compact, measuring 36 x 30.3 x 13 centimeters. A limited-edition copper variant weighs 21.5 kilograms, although the manufacturer also offers an aluminum version that weighs just 11.2 kilograms.

The unique feature of this case is its solid copper cooling system, which allows it to cool down up to 250 watts of power without a single fan, making the computer silent, at least except for the power supply fan. The case dissipates the processor's waste heat through 17 copper heat pipes with a diameter of 8 millimeters, and there are three vapor chambers for the graphics chip.
 


Either way, the heat is dissipated to the copper cooling fins located on all four sides of the case, where it is then released into the open air. The case offers space for an ITX motherboard, a Flex-ATX power supply and a single 2.5-inch hard drive. According to the manufacturer, the fastest graphics card officially supported by this case is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060, which houses 8 GB of GDDR7 graphics memory.

Price and availability

The FanlessVC2300S DT case is currently available exclusively in China via Taobao, where the aluminum version is priced at 1,760 yuan (approx. $247). Details on the price of the copper model or an international launch are pending.
