We don't need to - we've designed our own case with WCing pre-installed:)

It is the same case that Thermaltake worked with BMW US on, does look unique but functionality wise I'm not sure how it will be any better cooling wise than a normal chassis. WCing would probably have to be external yup, but it wouldn't actually be that hard to achieve;)

Looks like it will be over £500 too.....

A similar chassis was posted on million dollar pc:

To be honest, I don't think the cooling will be any better but I must say that I really enjoy the out of the box thinking... no puns intended :p

The motherboard housing looks very similar to our Blade chassis! I wish I had more free time to go crazy on chassis design, some of these creations do look very good!

They look visibly very nice. But I am not sure how practical they are, like is much effected as in cooling cause of the design. Maybe they are over designed .... not sure.

Well if BMW had a hand in the design then you can guarantee they are a little over engineered:D

Not that being over engineered is a bad thing....

To be honest I reckon that they went for design more than efficiency, but I don't think that it'll perform worse than any of the standard cases today atleast, will be fun to see the pricetags on these... way out of my league for sure ;)
