Caja de PC NATEC Helix Mini Tower negra — microATX/Mini-ITX, 3×3,5 pulgadas + 5×2,5 pulgadas, GPU 33 cm, conectores USB-C/USB-A

NATEC Helix USB C Mini Tower is a compact PC case with a rigid steel and ABS construction that protects internal components while occupying minimal desk space. It supports Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards and offers an expanded front panel with a USB Type‑C (USB 3.1, 10 Gbit/s), two USB 3.0 Type‑A ports and one USB 2.0 Type‑A port, plus audio jacks. The case includes an 80 mm rear exhaust fan and allows installation of additional front and side 120 mm fans to maintain optimal airflow.

Advantages

The Helix case combines a small footprint with versatile drive and cooling options: multiple drive bays for 2.5" and 3.5" drives, a 5.25" bay for optical devices, space for a graphics card up to 330 mm long and a CPU cooler up to 148 mm tall. Its front USB Type‑C port enables faster data transfer (10 Gbit/s) while the extra USB Type‑A ports and audio jacks make connecting peripherals convenient. Durable materials (steel, metal mesh and ABS) provide structural strength and basic protection.

Suitable for

• Home office and business desktops

How to use

Install a compatible Micro‑ATX or Mini‑ITX motherboard, secure the power supply and populate drive bays with 2.5" or 3.5" storage as required. Mount the GPU (up to 330 mm) and install a CPU cooler no taller than 148 mm. Connect the front panel USB Type‑C and Type‑A ports to the appropriate motherboard headers and route fan cables to motherboard fan headers or a fan controller. Use the included 80 mm rear fan for exhaust; add optional 120 mm front or side fans to improve intake and overall airflow.

Recommendations

For balanced thermal performance, use at least one front intake 120 mm fan together with the included rear 80 mm exhaust. When planning a compact build, verify GPU length and CPU cooler height against the specified maximums and choose low-profile coolers or shorter graphics cards if needed.
