Cooler Master’s latest case is called the Silencio 550 and it aims to usher in a new era of silent towers The Silencio 550 is black and features a glossy front door that opens. The case is designed to keep most of the sound inside so you don’t hear it. The case also has silencing foam padding and a steel frame with rubber feet.

The cooling system uses a pair of silent spinning fans and there are seven 3.5″ drive bays inside, with three 5.25″ bays outside and one 2.5″ bay. It has a USB 3.0 port on top and holes for an optional water cooling system. Nothing on pricing yet.

Fossil’s Meta Watch “wrist computer” comes in digital or analog versions and is based on the TI MSP430 micro-controller paired with Bluetooth for connecting to your phone, tablet or other device. It will also display information from mobile applications or Internet services.

The watch also features a 3 ATM water resistant stainless steel case, a leather strap, a mineral glass crystal, a vibrating motor, a three-axis accelerometer and an ambient light sensor. The analog version features two 16 x 80 white OLED displays, while the digital version has a 96 x 96 reflective display. The Meta Watch should arrive in July 2011 for $200.

Falcon Northwest’s custom FragBox gaming computer lives up to it’s name, with the latest modern processor, two graphics cards and 24 gigs of RAM, all in a case roughly the size of a shoebox. A shoebox that holds shoes that will kick you like a champion kickboxer. It’s nice and portable too since it has a handle.

The Fragbox is 15 inches long, eight inches tall and weighs just 25 pounds. For a machine that includes specs like 24 gigs of RAM, dual Radeon 6970s, an Intel Core i7 Extreme processor, and a 256 gig SSD, it would cost you about $5,600. Lower spec systems start at $1,700.

Gaming computers can get pretty loud. Especially if you have built it yourself, with powerful video cards, CPUs and fans all doing their thing. Loudly. Power does come with a price and that price is often ungodly noise. Well, NZXT has a new case that might help.

The H2 Classic is said to deliver “a new era of whisper-quiet gaming.” That is literally music to our tired ears. It is so quiet thanks to a layer of noise dampening foam between the gear inside and the outside. Aside from that the case uses a three-phase fan controller that allows you to put the fans at 40%, 70%, and 100% speed.

The iPad truly is being used everywhere. Now the Federal Aviation Administration has granted early approval to use them in airplane cockpits, as major commercial airline companies including Delta want to do away with paper maps.

It’s a great idea, but maybe they could have one or two paper maps still. Just in case. The FAA has also started to grant approval for “electronic flight bags,” alternatively known as computers for aviation use in the last decade. Let’s hope the pilots don’t get too distracted playing Angry Birds or watching movies.

Remember the Chucky movies? The ones with the psycho doll that killed people? Well, he’s back. This time he’s on a PC case. The modder who made this must really love Chucky. It was made by Omar Majzoub who spent over six months and $2000 on this Child’s Play computer. As you can see it’s designed to look like a giant Good Guys box.

Good guy my arse! Chucky is outside of the box, but there’s a mini-me Chucky, Bride of Chucky and Son of Chucky inside the case. I hope he doesn’t hang around this thing at night.

If these flash drives look like knives, that is no mistake. Knife maker Victorinox has unveiled it new range of Slim Flash Drives in penknife cases. And no, these won’t get you in trouble at the airport. The Victorinox Slim and Slim Duo include all the standard pocket knife functions including blade, nail file and scissors, so you will always be ready for any task.

The Victorinox Slim flash drive can store up to 64Gb of data and can be secured using a personal password, with 128GB for the Victorinox Slim Duo. The Victorinox Secure SSD is actually the world’s smallest 256GB solid-state drive and includes security software that provides automatic back-up functions with Zero-Footprint capability to ensure anonymity while web surfing. The bookmarks and favorites manager will synchronize your documents and folders between more than one computer as well.

These days you have your choice of computing interfaces and platforms, but maybe you’re looking for something a bit different. Something retro that still incorporates your modern gear. If that’s the case, check out this antique typewriter that has been modified to work as a USB Keyboard for your PC, Mac, or iPad. It’s fully functional computer keyboard. But also a typewriter.

It not only looks awesome with an iPad on it, it will work with all letters, numbers, and punctuation marks and includes shift, space, and return carriage, which is really activated by the typewriter’s return carriage. What about non-standard keys like F1-F12, esc, ctrl, etc? They are all available on a special toggle key.

The Scooterputer takes portability to a whole new level. It comes from modder Stephen Popa. This is basically a Thermaltake Element V case with plenty of gaming power sitting on a 24v rechargeable electric scooter that has been stretched a full 11 inches to maker room for the computer.

The computer case has an Intel i7 processor inside, along with 4GB RAM, GTS 250 graphics card, three RAIDed hard drives, USB 3.0 port, dual layer DVD burner, Thermaltake TR2 1200 Watt power supply and it’s water cooled with Thermaltake Big water 850I kit.

Meet the world’s first remote-controlled gaming computer. It’s built from a Thermaltake case and built on top of a motorized, remote-controlled base. Oh and there’s also a robotic arm. Now that’s what I call a computer.

Sadly it doesn’t shoot lasers, but I’m sure that is just one mod away from happening. This one could be R2-D2′s long lost cousin. I’m pretty sure I saw this thing in a Jawa Sandcrawler.

The Level Twelve casemod from Jeffrey Stephenson is pretty decent looking if you like wood. The box is constructed from Teak and Birds Eye Maple and holds a 2TB hard drive, an optical drive and four front mounted USB ports.

Other specs of this mod include an i7-processor, 8GB of RAM, a 256GB Crucial C300 SSD and a Lenovo H320 case. Jeff makes computer cases look damn good. If we had computers in the 1950′s they would look like this.

Winter. It’s the time of year when sitting by the fire not only warms your body, but seems to warm your soul. But what if you don’t have a fireplace? Well, you could make your own fireplace in your computer case.

This LCD screen with a computer behind it may not throw off much heat, but just the sight of it might help on a cold night. It’s better than nothing. And anyway it looks great. This thing is hot. Pun intended. The case was recently on display at the PDXLAN 16.5 event over in Portland.

Netflix has quietly made streaming-only plans a reality in the US. The odd part is that depending on which computer and web browser you use, you’ll see a different result. For instance according to Engadget, a Windows desktop running Chrome was invited to sign up for the same $7.99 disc-less plan as Canadian customers enjoy, while Firefox asked for $8.99 for the same, and in both cases it would cost $9.99 in total if you want physical discs as well.

It all adds up to this. You may get a $1 discount if you only use the company’s online service now, but if you like DVDs delivered to your door you may find yourself paying for those who don’t.

If you are a car enthusiast and a PC user, then this is the perfect V8 engine/computer case for you. This thing is just awesome looking. This case mod has been created in the form of a traditional V8 engine with dual PC cases and engine components. One DVD drive is fitted into the air intake to complete the effect.

You can almost see it shaking with power. The creator did an amazing job.

Well, here’s a first. We’ve never seen a round laptop before. It comes from Revo Round, so maybe it isn’t so surprising. Yep, this is a round laptop that comes with a round display, a round case and a curved keyboard.

It’s called the Roundtop. This has to be how aliens use the internet in their UFOs. This concept model would take some getting used to. Revo Round hopes that their Roundtop technology will see action as billboards and other displays one day. Good thing too, because this laptop is just too weird.
