What do you think of this?

Its the latest case from Thermaltake, called the Level 10, and it is a Design collaboration between Thermaltake and BMW Group Designworks USA.

It utilises a new Open Compartment Architecture, which means that each component is held in its own small case compartment and can be accessed individually, so no more need to open one large case.

Does it look good? I'm personally not so sure about that, although it could be said to look quite cool and futuristic with the large glowing lights when running. Although personally I much rather see blue LED lighting than red. What is it with the latest cases having red lighting?

Is it affordable? Hell no! RRP is £550, and lowest in stores is around £450. And that doesn't include a PSU.

So what do you think?

Interesting and futuristic looking case.. I could get used to it, but the real question is how is cable management and working IN the case? If it works well and is easy to access I would give it a yes...

But only if they drop the price... (And I am right there with you, Blue LED's are my favorite.. Not much on red either..

Because they have finally decided that some of us can't stand looking at blue LEDs?

The ideal solution to colour would be to provide a choice of colours.

That is certainly one strange case.

I saw that some time ago, and I think it's horrible. The idea is really good, and I also think that it's very nice to use with the components, but it just looks horrible and is way too expensive.

Do I like it?
Yes, I think it's quite funky. A neat idea having everything compartmentalised like that. I wonder about air flow and cooling though.

Would I buy it? Hell, no. Too expensive, and wouldn't look right in my home. Maybe in some trendy modern apartment or a cool office. Or a sci fi set.

I do like to see new, slightly out-there ideas though. Credit for that.

looks interesting and if as said before, the cable management was good, then it could be practical
