Today at Computex, the kings of cooling, Coolermaster, brought out their new swag. Nestled on the 13th floor of the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Taipei, Coolermaster has a suite of goodies for the thermally disadvantaged.
First off the rank is a range of super premium cases, hand painted in a car finish enamel and three funky designs.
Though it's been done before as very specialised pieces by other companies (including Dell & Alienware) you don't need a golden ticket to buy these babies... just a load of cashola.
Current pricing in the US is a hair under $1000. Worth the price to intimidate your competition at LAN parties? You be the judge.
 Five year warranty: or 30,000KM on the paint |
Next up is the new flagship case, the COSMOS. New upside down design (with the PSU at the bottom of the case), more fans than you can poke a stick at, a decent crack at a cable management system and sound proofing and you have what looks like a case that would be a pleasure to work in.
 Dangling wires: glowing lights optional |
If one of your desires is to put a giant copper ball inside your aluminium case (while trying to avoid snapping your motherboard in two) the CM Sphere is for you! This huge air cooler is 100% copper, and uses a central fan keep air moving. And it's big. Real big.
