be quiet!, the German manufacturer for premium PC components, announces white versions for its two high-end PC cases: Dark Base Pro 901 White and Dark Base 701 White. Both cases have ground-breaking features, such as support for inverted layouts, high airflow, subtle ARGB lighting, and a huge focus on usability. Dark Base Pro 901 White and Dark Base 701 White allow users to create stunning white builds without compromises, offering the same high quality and award-winning German engineering as the original black versions of these cases and making them the ideal cases for PC gamers and enthusiasts alike.

Dark Base Pro 901 White features a silence-oriented and performance-optimized solution for the top and the front of the case, thanks to the included exchangable panels. A detachable top and front bracket with included fan hub and pogo pin connector allows for a comfortable installation of radiators and fans. The case supports an inverted layout thanks to its intuitive rail system and the cooling demand is handled by three pre-installed Silent Wings 4 White 140 mm PWM fans.

When Streacom launched the SG10 Copper Edition pre-orders, we knew the choice of compatible GPUs was limited, which is why it was critical for us to collect customer choices and have an extended lead time to evaluate how best to cover the widest selection of graphics cards. Today, we would like to elaborate on this and answer some of the questions that are most commonly asked about the SG10 Copper Edition.

Our initial list of compatible cards consisted of just six cards, chosen at the time of product development based on popularity (from sales figure data). Obviously, that has somewhat changed, but fortunately, they represented a good starting point for "comparable" board layouts, which allows our modular cooling solution to be quickly adapted to the minor variations between cards.

Antec introduced the CX200M RGB Elite case. This is the third case release in the last 48 hours to feature a pillarless front-left corner, a design choice that enables a more unimpeded view of your build inside. It is a Micro-ATX tower that comes in two trims—black and white. A striking feature of this case is that Antec is including no less than five 120 mm ARGB LED fans with the case, which come pre-installed along the rear, the compartment partition, and the top exhaust. As with most other pillarless corner cases we've come across, the glasshouse only covers the upper compartment with the motherboard tray; the bottom compartment has perforated falls along the left and front; and is only accessible from the right panel.

The motherboard tray offers room for graphics cards up to 33 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 16.4 cm in height. Fan mounts include a 120 mm rear exhaust, two 120 mm top exhausts, and two additional mounts along the partition that divides the upper and lower compartments. Since the bottom compartment's panels have perforations, these fans essentially serve as intakes, guiding air through the drive cage. Radiator options include a 240 mm along the top panel, and a second 240 mm along the partition. The drive cage can hold a 3.5-inch drive, and two 2.5-inch mounts. Front panel connectivity includes two type-A USB 3.1 ports, and a 4-pole 3.5 mm headset jack. The case measures 210 mm x 350 mm x 392 mm (WxDxH), weighing about 4.5 kg. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Thermaltake today rolled out the View 270 TG ARGB, a line of ATX mid-tower cases featuring a pillarless front-left corner, for a more unimpeded view of your build. Much like the ZALMAN P10, this case doesn't feature a wrap-around single-piece glass, but rather two planar tempered glass panels that meet at the corner, so you'll notice the edge line. Still, this is better than an inch-thick pillar. Also like the ZALMAN P10, the Thermaltake View 270 TG ARGB features a horizontally partitioned layout that extends to even its exterior—the tempered glasshouse only covers the upper compartment. The bottom compartment with the PSU- and drive bays feature static perforated panels along the left- and front sides; and is only accessible from the single piece right side-panel. The right panel features perforations toward the front, aligning with the side-facing radiator mount. An interesting aspect about this mount is that it's located entirely in the crawlspace behind the motherboard tray, it doesn't intrude into the motherboard tray compartment, and so you can mount a 360 mm radiator without its fans impeding your long graphics cards in any way.

The motherboard tray seats E-ATX (or smaller) motherboards with 7 expansion slots; you get room for graphics cards up to 42 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 18 cm in height, so there's plenty of room to wrestle with your graphics card's 12VHPWR cable. Fan and radiator mounts, besides the 3x 120 mm side-facing mount detailed above, include three 140 mm / 120 mm top mounts that can hold a radiator as large as 360 mm; and a 120 mm rear exhaust. The partition dividing the bottom and top compartments is perforated, and you can mount up to three 120 mm fans here. The case measures 230 mm x 454 mm x 456 mm (WxDxH), weighing 6.3 kg. All its metal bits are made of SECC steel. The case comes in four color trims—Black (CA-1Y7-00M1WN-00), Snow (CA- 1Y7-00M6WN-00), Hydrangea Blue (CA-1Y7-00MFWN-000, and Matcha Green (CA-1Y7-00MEWN-00). The included rear 120 mm fan comes with addressable RGB lighting. The company didn't reveal pricing.

ZALMAN today introduced the P10 series Micro-ATX mini-tower case, which comes in black and white variants. A striking design feature with the case is its pillarless front-left corner, where the front- and left tempered glass panels meet. You still get a glass edge, this isn't a single piece glass panel. Inside, the case features a horizontally partitioned layout, with the bottom portion only accessible by removing the right panel, which is mostly perforated for good airflow. On the left- and front, this portion is completely walled off, but has some side-facing vents for passive ventilation for the PSU bay.

The motherboard bay of the ZALMAN P10 offers maximum clearance of 38.2 cm for graphics cards, and 17.3 cm for CPU coolers. There are 5 expansion slots, and a graphics card reinforcement that can be adjusted to fit the thickness of your graphics card. It counteracts PCB bending of graphics cards over time. Storage options include a single 3.5-inch bay, and an additional 2.5-inch mount. Ventilation options include either three 120 mm or two 140 mm vents at the top; two 120 mm along the bottom; and a 120 mm rear exhaust. You can mount a 360 mm or 280 mm radiator along the top, and a 240 mm radiator along the bottom. The case measures 216 mm x 418 mm x 422 mm (WxHxD), weighing 6.1 kg. The company didn't reveal pricing.

HYTE, a leading manufacturer of cutting-edge PC components and peripherals, today announced its first collaboration with NIJISANJI EN, the VTuber agency.

Designed to represent the bird angel herself, the Enna Alouette custom Y60 case features illustrations of Enna by artist yenkoes adorning the front and side glass panels of the case and her mascot "Aloupeeps" on the corner glass panel. Musical notes dance across the top and bottom border of the custom pastel purple Y60 case, to the tune of "Mushroom," leading the eye to the rear of the case where a limited-edition plate will mark which number out of 1,000 units the case is. Along with the custom Y60 case, Aloupeeps can also look forward to a custom desk pad featuring Enna, custom 112-piece keycap set with Enna related symbols and coloring, and a custom Enna Alouette wall scroll.

Cooler Master has showcased a wide variety of new case designs, as well refreshed versions of enthusiast favorites at CES 2024—the NR200P Vision was given special placement on a purple lit podium. This striking revisement of CM's original NR200P model presents itself as a futuristic concept—a crowd of attendees was drawn to this compact spectacle. Cooler Master states that NR200P Vision's feature set would normally be reserved for high-end or studio-level enclosures, but they have worked on integrating these into a space-saving profile.

An extra holder will be included to keep everything firmly in place. TPU staffers noticed that the Vision was fitted with wood (effect?) feet, suggesting that some style notes have been taken from Fractal Design's book.

The NR200P Vision features vented steel construction and striking tempered glass side panels—Cooler Master claims that this headliner has the performance to match its good looks. The Taiwanese hardware manufacturer made some room at their booth for another NR200-series refresh—a NR200P V2 model was presented in black or white options. Past feedback has been taken onboard; the chassis design team has made sure to update the front I/O panel with a much requested USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type C port (offering up to 20 Gb/s transfer speeds). It seems that the NR200P Vision has received the same front-facing connectivity treatment.

Thermaltake continued its unveiling of new CTE C-series chassis models at CES 2024—TPU staff took a closer look at the C200 the other day. This is a dual-chamber ITX chassis available in black or "Snow" white; it utilizes Thermaltake's Centralized Thermal Efficiency (CTE) Form Factor design.
