The ASUS ProArt line of products has been growing over the past few years. The entire idea behind the line is to have products specifically made for digital creators. While ASUS has PC products for gamers and enthusiasts these products might not offer everything a creator wants. That is where ProArt comes in and ASUS started this line with professional displays, but has expanded into motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, and now we even have AiO coolers and cases. The first cases in this series is the ProArt PA602 which is a massive case that comes with two 200mm pre-installed intake fans, support for 420mm radiators, a built-in fan hub, a dust filter that lets you know it needs cleaned, and best of all no RGB lighting. Is this the case you need for the ultimate creator build? Read on as we find out!
Special thanks to ASUS for providing us with the ProArt PA602 Case to review.

Packaging
The ProArt PA602 comes a large retail box that says ProArt across the front with a sticker that lets us know we have the PA602. Flipping over to the back many of the different features of the case are detailed.
The box opens up might like a box that houses a TV, so you need to remove the four locks towards the bottom of the case and lift up. Once you remove the outer box you’ll find the case nicely protected. Inside you’ll also find a full user’s guide and all of your mounting hardware.
