BMW Designs A PC

BMW is usually known for engineering cars... but here's their vision of their own PC. It is designed such that it looks good whether it's upright or placed flat. It features magnetic side panels for quick access to the components, an LED sceen and knob combo in the front for quick access to the PC's stats (such as temperatures and CPU load) and fan control, and the corners can be used as handles. Quite interesting and all, but how many radiators can this thing hold?!

I would totally buy that case, stick some RoG hardware in there, and custom sleeve a PSU with red MDPC-X sleeving if I could.

I think so. I also believe that they designed a mouse too.

Yep, BMW designed some mouse for Thermaltake as well. Linus and Slick covered it at CES. Y'know that asian chick with the sexiest voice ever?

This was built together with AsRock so I'm not sure if they will only be selling this as a prebuilt system. Also it's an mITX case so no RoG MBs :(.

It looks like a projector. It would be awesome if it can project a picture from that circle LED screen  :D
