It takes its name from the goddess Athena, whose companion – the owl – runs through the design. A new multi-function button on the front right places direct control exactly where it's quick to reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7103\/6493\/files\/kbdfans-athena75-22.jpg?v=1783693048\"\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCase \u0026amp; design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is CNC-machined from 6063 aluminium and finished with zircon sandblasting. The bottom carries a fully engraved radial machined pattern: the staggered lines replicate owl feathers and give the underside a multi-dimensional depth. Finishes range from classic anodised to ultra-fine sprayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7103\/6493\/files\/kbdfans-athena75-iris-2.jpg?v=1783693343\"\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRAW anodized finish (optional)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the RAW variants the usual sandblasting step is skipped to preserve the aluminium's natural metallic lustre. The subsequent anodisation emphasises the raw texture, making every piece unique. Note: RAW cases show visible tool marks, fine scratches and slight colour variation by nature of the process – this is expected and not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLCD display \u0026amp; multi-function button\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HD display holds up to five custom GIFs (128×128 pixels), which you can switch between instantly via hotkey or the bottom-right key – turning every boot-up into a personal showcase. The bottom-right area combines an integrated RGB strip with a multi-function badge key. It's pre-configured for GIF switching but can be mapped to any function. The module is machined from full aluminium and colour-matched to the bottom case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7103\/6493\/files\/kbdfans-athena75-display_e7fadaa3-1a67-461e-9019-852cf80eb862.jpg?v=1783693328\"\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7103\/6493\/files\/kbdfans-athena75-led-strip.webp?v=1783693407\"\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStainless steel internals\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the internal weight bar and the internal cover plate are made from stainless steel with a machined texture.
