InWin has launched its new Mercury AM120S slim and silent 120 mm PC fan, which provides truly silent cooling within a slim 20 mm thick frame. The Mercury AM120S features a unique turbine blade design that is molded to the outer edge of the fan blades within the frame. This design concentrates airflow and avoids air leakage between the frame and blades, resulting in a concentrated airflow with reduced noise. The blades themselves also feature a unique engraved design that improves the balance of air pressure across the blade.

The Mercury AM120S operates at a truly silent 17 dBA. At its maximum airflow, it's capable of achieving over 60 CFM and 2.72 mm/H2O static pressure at just 29 dBA, which is comparable to other standard sized fans despite being housed in a more compact enclosure. The slimmer fan is about 20% smaller too. Several Mercury AM120S fans can be connected together using InWin's "Lock-N-Go" extension cable for more practical, user-friendly cable management. The anti-slide buckle ensures they stay securely fastened.

AeroCool unveiled the Cipher mid-tower case targeted at those with copious amounts of local storage. It features a mostly conventional horizontally-partitioned layout, but with a key difference. Toward the forward-right region of the case, is a fan vent that holds either two 120 mm or two 140 mm fans; and can mount 280 mm or 240 mm radiators. The radiator ends up in the crawl-space behind the motherboard tray, while its fans are on the other side. It exhausts through vents along the right side-panel. The left side-panel has these vents, too, but serves as intake. This is where things get interesting. There are four detachable 3.5-inch drive-cages mounted along the motherboard tray (with clearance for the radiator fans). These cages can either serve as a fresh air-guide for the side-mounted radiator, or hold up to eight 3.5-inch HDDs ventilated by those fans. You can pluck out the drive-cages you don't need.

The storage features don't end there. The bottom compartment has an additional three 3.5-inch bays, two 2.5-inch drives can be mounted behind the motherboard tray, and two on top of the partition, for a total of 15 drives, not counting the M.2 SSDs on your motherboard. Other ventilation options include three 120 mm front fan-mounts behind a mesh intake; three 120 mm top exhausts, and a 120 mm rear exhaust. The expansion slots include two vertical slots. Front-panel connectivity is pretty standard, with a USB 3.x type-A, two USB 2.0, and HDA jacks. All this, in mid-tower dimensions of 205 mm x 485 mm x 485 mm (WxDxH). The company didn't reveal pricing.
