And final production design:

I actually quite like it, in a slightly weird way.. What do you think?

Not a case for watercooling then. At least not if you want it all internal. Spending that much ££ on a case and for it not to be a watercooled system? I predict a FAIL.

pixie posted about this at the start of the year from ces or some other convention.

the compartments keep the heat from transfering from some parts to others, i like the idea but not the final product.

Initial thoughts

Looking past the unusual and entirely stupefying design, Thermaltake's Level 10 chassis isn't quite revolutionary in terms of features. Dividing system components into four separate chambers should, in theory, aid thermal performance (http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=20466&page=5#), but will the chassis' cooling performance be able to match its awe-inspiring design? The jury's still out on that one, but we'll have the verdict in a forthcoming review.
For now, Level 10 has the ingredients and the imagination to make it one of the most iconic chassis of the 21st century. It's beautiful to look at, and comes bundled with seemingly-limitless bragging rights. Trouble is, such a bold design carries a significant premium - we're expecting Level 10 to launch as a limited run product with a suggested price tag of around $750 (roughly £470).
Stay tuned as we'll be bringing you more Level 10 coverage in the coming days - including an exclusive video review!"

That looks stupid, and anything that slightly resembles a ***station is worth avoiding :P

£468!?!?!?

That's more expensive than the Cosmos S and that cools like a mofo, how could someone be persuaded to pay near £500 dollar for a ugly looking case that probably doesn't have great cooling????

People never cease to amaze

I think it looks very good, but £500 is so exspensive, thats probably most peoples budget for a whole PC.

Hmmmm, interesting idea, but its one damned ugly case.

And £500!!!! Could put together a decent system for less than that!

Exactly...

Again... exactly, £500 is a budget for most builds

And your right, if you didnt want your pc to stand out you wouldnt buy such a daft looking case

what your case is a coolermaster??? mines a bmw mofo!!1!

thats why some people will buy it, the fools.
Its obviously not made by BMW, they make cars not computer cases, its just branded by BMW to make it sell more, and i know thats what you think im simply agreeing with more details

Id still rather have a cosmos S or a haf, cosmos over the haf IMO
