Tryx launches Flova F50 mid-tower starting at £130

In a market often dominated by tempered glass and mesh, Tryx has launched the Flova F50, a mid-tower ATX chassis that prioritises a contemporary aesthetic through fabric. Covering the entire front panel and the lower-left section of the case, the thick fabric gives the F50 a premium “lifestyle” feel, available in black, white, and pink. However, because the fabric is too dense for traditional front-to-back airflow, Tryx has engineered a radical cooling solution that promises to keep high-end hardware running cool.

The centrepiece of the Flova F50's internal design is the cross-flow radial fan. Standing 250 mm tall and 50 mm in diameter, this specialised turbine draws air from the side of the case and directs it horizontally across the motherboard and graphics card. This approach replaces the standard front intake fans, allowing the chassis to maintain its uninterrupted fabric exterior while still achieving thermal efficiency.

Despite its focus on design, the FLOVA F50 remains highly capable in terms of modern hardware compatibility. It supports ATX, Micro-ATX, and ITX motherboards, with full compatibility for BTF (Back-to-the-Front) and PZ (Project Zero) hidden-connector motherboards. It also has enough space for most graphics cards, accommodating GPUs up to 360 mm with the cross-flow fan installed, or up to 420 mm without it. Lastly, for cooling and PSU clearance, it supports CPU air coolers up to 170 mm in height and power supplies up to 200 mm.

Starting at £129.95, the Tryx Flova F50 is positioned as a premium alternative for builders who want a PC that looks more like high-end furniture than a traditional gaming rig.

KitGuru says: Tryx is clearly targeting the “minimalist desk setup” crowd that has been flocking to cases like the Fractal North or Terra. While using fabric as a primary material raises questions about long-term dust maintenance, the inclusion of the 250 mm cross-flow fan shows that Tryx isn't just focused on looks. It's actually trying to offer a solution that looks great without major sacrifices.
