Thermaltake has released more products than any other manufacturer at Computex. Among the highlights are a huge home theater case which looks like a big audio rack and has space for two systems. For visitors of lan parties a Shuttle-like case is offered which takes all standard size components and supports SLI. Several new watercooling products have been announced, including a watercooled passive PSU. A whole load of air and watercooled GPU coolers are new too.

Wow those video card coolers are a blatant rip off of Arctic Silencer's designs.

Yeah..but they don't seem that bad. That TideWater Mini doesn't seem to bad either, only taking up one slot, might get one for temporary use.

I kinda want that LanBox too, the handle actually looks sturdy. The Aspire Q-Packs are nice, but I wouldn't trust my comp with the small handle.

these VGA coolers do really loke great!
the first one (AT1) reminds me of the one that HIS uses on the ICEQ3 Version.
Would be fine if the coolers would really reach the market

but the Discovery FX looks rediculous, as if the Alienware case had eaten too much :rolleyes:

If the TideWater Mini goes for $60-70, I would get it. The original TideWater is like $80.

Ya i know but what about the vga coolers AT1 and NT2. Tt do not have much of a choice when it comes to vga cooling beside those big passive ones or those old ones. Dont think the old ones will work on new vga and the big ones dont think they will work on Sli or crossfire. but these new ones might.
