One of those hidden gems that just pops up. We dub this the tiniest case we’ve seen with removable drive trays. Sadly we don’t know who makes it

Cooler Master was next, and had quite a few new things to share across its whole product range, from cases, to power supplies to heatsinks.

The CSX series may see a limited release in Australia soon. It’s all hand painted and has a lifetime warranty (in the US, any way) against damage to the paint job. The middle case isn’t madness, it’s SPAAAARTAAAA!

The Cosmos in its natural state. Looks fantastic, although the top handles wobbled a bit. Hopefully the final construction is a bit stronger.

The Geminii S is a more controllable version of the earlier Geminii – you can still stack two 120mm fans on it if you like.

One thing you notice very quickly in Computex is that there is an infinite amount of RAM manufacturers here – the same goes for NVIDIA board partners. Most of them will sadly never see the light of day locally, however in chatting with TEAM they may be out here soon.

Of course, for mass RAM destruction, only one brand will do.

Team had its DDR3 running at 2000MHz at CAS 8! This will be expensive, and highly unavailable for some time.

RAM manufacturers understand us. They really do.

Thermalright was next, with a few utterly crazy products – essentially cases that are just giant heatsinks. We thought these were just manufactured for bragging rights – the Thermalright rep told us that he expects them to be on the market soon though. This stand by far has had the most interesting goodies for Atomicans.



Contact between the CPU and heatsink is made through attaching the side of the case.

Yeah, Thermalright make a heatsink for pretty much everything these days.

Console liquid cooling. Hugely niche, but still has the cool factor.

The IFX-14. This thing has a separate heat pipe that pumps heat from the rear of your CPU socket to the outside of the case.
