Cougar CFV235 ARGB CEB Mid Tower Case

The Cougar CFV235 ARGB CEB Mid Tower Case (SKU: CGR-2DA4B) introduces a genuinely novel approach to chassis airflow through its patented Central Floating Ventilation (CFV) architecture. Unlike conventional mid-tower designs that confine the PSU and all critical components within the same enclosed volume, the CFV235 separates the PSU cabin from the main motherboard chamber using a structural hollow void. This free-floating gap runs on a vertical axis, keeping the overall footprint compact while enabling 270° of unobstructed airflow intake — directing fresh air precisely where high-performance hardware needs it most. The suspended void is not merely functional; the Aurora ARGB lighting strip mounts magnetically within this space, transforming the cooling channel into an illuminated architectural feature. Control is handled by an integrated universal fan and RGB hub, allowing speed and lighting synchronisation either directly via a button or through motherboard software. Out of the box, the CFV235 ships with COUGAR Unity 240 single-frame PWM reverse-blade ARGB fans pre-installed on the motherboard side, plus one 120mm ARGB PWM fan at the rear — three pre-installed fans in total. The Unity 240 fan operates between 700 and 1,600 RPM (±10%), while the 120mm rear fan runs between 500 and 1,400 RPM (±10%). Both use 5V 3-pin ARGB and 4-pin PWM connectors. The case supports Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, ATX, and CEB motherboards including reverse-connector layouts, accommodates GPUs up to 430mm in length (with an L-shaped anti-sag bracket included), and allows CPU coolers up to 175mm tall. PSUs up to 200mm in length are compatible. An integrated 1.5mm-thick steel frame preserves structural rigidity throughout. Total fan capacity reaches up to nine fans: three 120mm or 140mm on the top panel, three 120mm on the main chamber floor, two 120mm on the motherboard side, and one 120mm at the rear. Radiator support peaks at 360mm on the top, with additional support for 280mm, 240mm, 140mm, and 120mm configurations; the rear accommodates a 120mm radiator. Dual magnetic dust filters sit at the roof and base of the CFV structure. Storage options include two 3.5-inch HDD bays and four 2.5-inch SSD positions (two dedicated, two converted from 3.5-inch bays), alongside seven expansion slots. The front I/O panel features USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C (20 Gbps) ×1, USB 3.0 Type-A ×2, a 4-pole headset audio jack, and an RGB button. Behind the motherboard tray, 38mm of clearance and five Velcro cable management straps help maintain a tidy build.
