I see this new case is now being offered at this siliconacoustics.com link.

Looks interesting... does anybody here have any experience with it?

Looks like that hydraulic case seen here
http://www.directron.com/860busb.html
for $33.US but with acoustic material preinstalled.

Good find Gaming God!

al bundy - Search Google for "Silentmaxx ST-11" and you'll get all kinds of hits, mostly from European sites. Use a translator and you can read about this case.

Of course I already did that, read all about it and noticed some very favorable write-ups! Hmmm, since we have some folks from Germany here, perhaps somebody has seen/heard of this case and can share their experience?

By the way GamingGod, yes that directron case does look similar but does have some essential differences... for instance, notice that the directron case has only a rear 60mm fan and a side blowhole but the Silentmaxx case has 2 rear 80mm fans and no side blowhole, etc etc... Makes me believe the cases are likely made by the same manufacturer (?)
