Akasa Galileo TU3 Thin-Mini-ITX 1U housing, OEM - black [A-ITX29-M1B]

Overview

Only a few enclosures can accommodate up to now in the standard Thin-Mini-ITX. The Galileo T from Akasa, however, supports this form factor, which was created by Intel with in-house circuit boards (e.g., DH-61AG or DQ77KB). Since the mainboards are extremely compact and superflach manufactured, corresponding cases should of course be dimensioned as small as possible, in order not to thwart the advantages of Thin-Mini-ITX. The Galileo TU3 offers four internal 2.5-inch slots for SSDs or HDDs, despite its small dimensions.

Details

For the same systems, the Galileo-TU3 housing (here as an OEM version without a brand logo) was developed by Akasa, which can be used either flat or directly on VESA mounts of the monitor. Specially designed for thin-mini ITX, it is very space-saving and, above all, flat-shaped, but in addition to these purely practical aspects, it also brings a very noble look to the table or behind the monitor.

Brushed aluminum makes the black Akasa Galileo TU3 a discreet and yet stale contemporary, which is thus also classified as an HTPC dwelling in every HiFi landscape. The front is only broken by the obligatory power button, two USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports as well as two status LEDs. The cover area with its likewise noble finish is detached from a slat area at the left end.

This fin structure is essential for the Noiseless concept of the Galileo TU3, since the heat of the mainboard is passively passed on to the environment via the lamellae, without the need for fans. The two heatpipes deliver the waste heat from the processor of the Thin Mini ITX board to the slats, where they lie in two suitable profile receptacles before the cover is placed and the construction closes.

A special feature of the Galileo TU3s is the possibility to accommodate the housing in a rackmount. The form factor of the Galileo TU3 is 1U and the required front panel is here directly.

Note: A power supply is not provided in the interior, as it would considerably increase the dimensions of the housing and heat generation. Instead, a suitable external power supply must be purchased separately.
