I thought it looked cool when I first saw it a couple months ago, but now I think its kind of gimmicky. Tiny compressor, only fits certain boards and it looks like a PITA to install a board or GPU or... anything really.

Wel it doesnt go below ambient temps so there is no need for huge compressor etc... But yea it doesnt look like the best but i wonder what temps you would get.

It's not extreme cooling, just keeps it cool enough where you don't have to worrie about condensation.

20ºC cooler than liquid cooling System
- Equipped with intelligent IC controller to prevent condensation
- Thermal resistance can be <0.02 ºC/W under 100% loading.
- High performance micro compressor uses standard 12V power
- Small, low noise, high performance technology.

If its THERE water coolers, well, 90C isn't a good temp :P
Compressor looks nice for a small recovery unit, might get one of these to rip down for proper HVAC work.

If it has to do with cooling, and it's by Thermaltake, the answer is always NO.

Plus, why did they register a domain name to make a site for a case? Why not just put it on the Thermaltake main site? lol...
