Arctic at Computex 2026: Freezer 61, BioniX A-RGB Fans, Fan Controller for 10 Fans and the Extender Mini Case
Arctic has chosen Computex 2026 in Taipei to unveil a series of new products ranging from cases to cooling systems, including fans and controllers. A rich lineup that focuses on technical quality and affordable prices, as highlighted by the awards received from the European Hardware Association, which awarded the company two prizes at the EHA Awards 2026.
Arctic Xtender Mini: The Compact Aquarium Case
The most anticipated novelty is the Arctic Xtender Mini, a smaller version of the already well-known Xtender case. Designed for Micro-ATX form factor and smaller, it maintains the characteristic aquarium design with tempered glass front and side panels, allowing a view of all internal components. Compared to the standard model, the Xtender Mini introduces several structural modifications: the upper area has been redesigned to accommodate larger-than-average power supplies, a choice that caters to builds with high-end GPUs, as demonstrated by the slot occupied by a GeForce RTX 5090 at the booth.
The case comes with three RGB fans at the bottom and a rear extraction fan. The front I/O has been repositioned compared to the previous model, where it was located at the top. Internally, there is notable space for a 360 mm radiator mounted vertically on the side, complete with a dedicated side grill and dust filter. It also features two slots for hard disks and ample space for cable management.
The Xtender Mini will be available from the fourth quarter of 2026 at 79 euros for the standard black version, and 89 euros for the white color. Those seeking an all-in-one solution can opt for the version bundled with a premounted 360 mm liquid cooling system, priced at 149 euros in black and 159 euros in white.
Arctic Freezer 61: Twin Tower for Monochrome Builds
On the air cooling front, the Arctic Freezer 61 debuts, a Twin Tower dual-fan heatsink designed for high TDP processors. The all-black choice responds to a specific market demand: to offer a solution for those wanting a clean black build, without RGB lighting, and with maximum thermal efficiency. The two included fans are a central P14 Pro Reverse and a front P12 Pro Reverse, both in black.
The Freezer 61 is compatible with all major Intel and AMD platforms of the latest generation and will hit the market in Q3 2026 priced at 49 euros.
Fan Controller: Up to 10 Fans with Linux Support
Arctic also presents a new fan controller capable of managing up to 10 fans simultaneously. The renewed software interface allows users to customize both the rotation speed of each individual fan and each integrated RGB LED. The standout feature is the native compatibility with Linux, enabling open source platform users to manage fans and lighting without limitations, filling a long-felt gap in the community.
BioniX P12 and P14 A-RGB Fans: Connection Without External Cables
Closing the lineup are the new Arctic BioniX P12 and P14 A-RGB fans, which adopt a connection system with direct connectors without external cables for power, speed control, and RGB signal. An approach that simplifies wiring and enhances the internal aesthetics of the case. The fans will be available shortly at 10.99 euros for the P12 (120 mm) and 12.99 euros for the P14 (140 mm).
