At Computex, Taiwan-based In Win has once again brought out its funky-looking desktop cases, but this time there's a new star on the stage. Dubbed the Tou (meaning "transparent" in Mandarin Chinese), this ATX full tower features several 3mm-thick tempered glass panels that are screwed onto an aluminum structure. And since the coated glass is semi-transparent, you can just about see the desktop's innards if you switch on the LEDs inside, which can be controlled via the touch panel above the two front USB 3.0 ports. When the internal lights are off, the desktop is pretty much just a mirror, but you'll want to degrease your fingers before touching any part of it.

Sadly, at the moment the Tou is still at concept stage, so we couldn't squeeze a price or date out of the reps. When the chassis does become available, you'll know as soon as we do.

InWin D and HFrame handson

Let's face it, PC cases are often pretty lame -- and traditionally something we don't chase down -- though In-Win's two launches at CES definitely beg for an exception. Heck, what can you say about a case? The D-Frame (pictured above) is pretty stellar with its glass sides, orange welded aluminum tubes, amazing fasteners, and blue LEDs would be an easy choice if we were building a new box around these parts. Though, the H-Frame with its radiator or layered gasket look is also a strong contender as we really dig its layered look and the solid metal thing it has going on. Both of these cases are seriously strong-looking, fairly hefty to haul, and in the case of the D-Frame crushproof. Look for these at you favorite In-Win retailer sometime this month for a hefty $399 each.
