What happened
Akasa has introduced the Euler MX2, a fanless aluminium Mini-ITX case designed for unattended commercial deployments. S1 The chassis supports Mini-ITX motherboards using Intel LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200 and LGA115X sockets. S1 Akasa rates the case for processors up to 35 W TDP, covering Intel Core (8th-14th Gen) and Core Ultra (15th Gen) parts. S1 Cooling is handled entirely by the external aluminium fin stack, with no fans inside the chassis. S1
Power is delivered through an integrated 220 W DC-to-DC converter built into the case, while storage comprises two internal 2.5" SATA drive bays. S1 Akasa's patented spring-loaded mounting system is used to keep the CPU in consistent thermal contact with the chassis across the supported socket range. S1
Targeted applications listed by the source include industrial automation, point-of-sale (POS) and kiosks, surveillance, digital signage, and long-life edge computing. S1 Akasa is described in the announcement as a thermal-solutions provider. S1

XAIPART take
Technical impact
The 35 W TDP ceiling keeps the Euler MX2 squarely in the embedded and edge-computing lane rather than competing with active-cooled performance Mini-ITX builds. XAIPART analysis For system designers, the integrated 220 W DC-to-DC board removes the need for an external AC brick or Pico PSU, which simplifies NEMA-style panel integration and reduces cabling points in a kiosk or DIN-adjacent enclosure. XAIPART analysis The two internal 2.5" SATA bays offer a straightforward path for an OS SSD plus a recording or logging drive, which is typical for surveillance and POS workloads.
Market impact
Akasa is positioning the Euler MX2 against other fanless Mini-ITX chassis families that already cover LGA1700 and LGA115X, but the explicit LGA1851 support broadens the addressable pool for Arrow Lake refresh builds that industrial OEMs are now qualifying. XAIPART analysis Procurement teams replacing legacy LGA1151 or LGA1200 fleet nodes now have a drop-in passive chassis path that follows the socket upgrade, although sourcing risk depends on distributor stock since the announcement did not disclose launch pricing or volume availability. XAIPART analysis
Action
Design engineers should verify the 35 W TDP figure against the specific SKU they intend to qualify, because Core Ultra (15th Gen) parts ship with a wide default TDP range and a misconfigured base power can push the chassis past its rating and throttle under sustained load. XAIPART analysis Buyers evaluating the Euler MX2 should request an MSRP and MOQ from their Akasa distributor before locking it into a BOM, since neither figure appears in the source. XAIPART analysis
XAIPART Forecast
XAIPART expects the Euler MX2 to reach North American distribution within 9 months of the 2026-10-06 announcement, and if the published MAP price lands above USD 250 per chassis the forecast assumption is wrong and adoption in POS will skew toward incumbent Akasa Turing or In Win fanless alternatives. XAIPART analysis
Facts are as reported by the cited source. The design-in, sourcing and forward-looking statements above are XAIPART's analysis, not the source's claims. List price, ship date, and chassis dimensions were not disclosed in the source, so any market sizing or selection guidance remains single-source until Akasa or a distributor publishes figures.
Corrections: none at publication. This brief will be updated with a timestamp if the source corrects its report.
