Spire expands its case line-up with a new Micro-ATX chassis, branded Tethys. Because of its compact size (375 x 136 x 354 mm), the company claims it's perfectly suited for small work areas and desks. Apart from Micro-ATX motherboard support, it's also possible to use the case in combination with the ITX form factor. Spire has also added a small LCD-screen on the case, which displays the system's diagnostics.
The Tethys case features a single vertical 5.25" bay and two horizontal 3.5" ones, one internal and the other external. Up to four expansion cards can be installed in the chassis. There's room for four 60 mm fans, two on both the front and the rear. The front of the case also sports the I/O panel, which allows for simple connection of two USB-devices and a headset.
The Tethys case weighs 3,6 kilograms and comes excluding a power supply and fans. Pricing and availability is still unknown.
