In early 2026, PC case manufacturers continue to add "wood accents" onto existing products. TechPowerUp spotted multiple examples during time spent perusing company booths at the recent CES trade show, in Las Vegas. For obvious reasons , DeepCool did not get the chance to exhibit its latest wares at this highly important consumer event. Earlier today, ITHome stumbled upon the Chinese computer hardware manufacturer's own attempts at attracting the "wood effect" material crowd. New JD.com listings show Deepcool's "CH260 Wood Grain Edition" microATX cases hitting the native market.

A black option is available at 399 RMB (~$57.30 USD). A pale white alternative demands a small upcharge of +50 RMB (~$7.18 USD). Deepcool's CH-series debuted way back in the spring of 2024 , with the well specced and reasonably priced CH160 model quickly gaining favor in ITX/SFF case format circles. A larger spin-off—CH260—launched later on in the year; suitably able to accommodate microATX motherboards. By then, DeepCool was a few months deep into being affected by US trade sanctions. Anyway, the CH260 arrived elsewhere in the world—finished in the usual standard black or white colorways. Over a year later, Chinese buyers get to enjoy first dibs with the local launch of Wood Grain variants. Promo material shows very little visual difference between non-wood and accented options.
