Avantech Terminator C001 - ducting here we come...

From Tomshardware's Cebit coverage:

That is the only sensible way to do the rotated motherboard installation that seems to be making the rounds with case manufacturers.

I wonder how long it takes for the case manufacturers come up with a vertical duct that wors with convection and single low-speed filtered bottom fan? :)

c't has a picture with the door open. The door is on the right side of the case:

There is a 120 mm fan in front and in the rear of the tunnel. Drive mounting is interesting: vertically under the power supply.

Hmm... if only they would offer some fanless heatsinks with it for some selection of boards. A Zalman Fan style heatsink that nearly fills the tunnel would be very effective I' think.
