the new thermaltake case is like a converted minifridge...actually, has anyone tried that? And does the OCC team have one to review (and super-cool to overclock the heck out of...anything)?

Thats nothing new, but because everyone knows Thermaltake it will be eaten up like free samples at a grocery store...

The new thermaltake case is really really SSSSSSSSSSSSSSEXc

Wonder how much it'll cost, and if it's in the same league as a coolit freezone or something. Maybe it's good that more companies enter that 'more expensive than the entire pc' cooling system bracket

I find the case ugly, but the phase change unit itself pretty awesome, I can't wait until they sell drive bay units

Saw price for it last week and Thermaltake recommended price is $799. Plus it will only work on certain motherboards and you will have to give up using long length graphic cards in top slot.

So if I read correctly in the first link that Yoosty posted, this thing will cool the average c2d/c2q down to about 15-18C for around $800. What a damn ripoff. Most of the phase change systems I have seen cool cpu's to around -20 down to -50 for less than $500

This looks really interesting, and it's nice to see Tt take phase-change to such a compact unit that it can slide out with the mobo tray!!

 

After messing with huge watercooling systems and seeing phase change rigs with external bolt-on cases, something like this would be cool for a LAN rig, without having all the external radiators or huge heavy phase-change unit lol

 

Would be interesting to see how this compares to the CoolIT stuff definitely!
