Pop 2 Air airflow chassis

The Pop 2 Air is a mid-tower case built around an open mesh front panel that prioritises unrestricted airflow. It accepts ATX, mATX and ITX motherboards and ships with three 120 mm Aspect 2 non-PWM fans pre-installed at the front for immediate cooling performance.

Capacity and headroom

The interior fits graphics cards up to 416 mm long and CPU coolers up to 170 mm tall. Top radiator support reaches 360 mm, though width is limited to 121 mm when using 47 mm high memory and a 407 mm long card. A single 3.5-inch bay and two dedicated 2.5-inch mounts handle storage, while the power supply compartment accommodates units up to 180 mm deep.

Front I/O and cable management

The front panel provides USB 3.0, USB-C at 5 Gbps, a combo audio jack and dedicated RGB cycle buttons for the integrated ARGB lighting. A 35 mm deep cable-routing channel with straps keeps wiring tidy behind the motherboard tray. Steel and nylon dust filters on the top and bottom protect the seven 120 mm or two 140 mm fan mounts from debris.

Questions about this item

Will my existing ATX power supply and a 416 mm graphics card fit in the Pop 2 Air?

The case accepts standard ATX power supplies up to 180 mm long and graphics cards up to 416 mm, so both will fit if they meet those limits.

How can I verify the three included Aspect 2 fans and ARGB lighting are working after assembly?

Connect the fan headers to your motherboard or a hub, then check fan RPM in BIOS or software and use the front RGB cycle button to confirm lighting modes change.

Does the box include drive brackets for 3.5 inch and 2.5 inch drives, and what must I buy separately?

The case ships with one 3.5 inch bay and two dedicated 2.5 inch mounts; a third 2.5 inch drive can use a converted slot, but any additional brackets or a power supply must be purchased separately.
