Asus' Sabertooth P67 Mobo Has a Tactical Vest
Asus has got this P67 covered.
Asus revealed some of its upcoming motherboards and one of them in particular caught our eye.
It's an upcoming P67 that'll support Sandy Bridge CPUs, and it has what Asus calls the "Tactical Vest."
The official marketing name for it is the Sabertooth P67, and that Tactical Vest "sheet" on top of the components forces cool air from CPU and case fans towards critical parts all over the motherboard via a proprietary shunt design. Asus also points out that it covers most of the motherboard to shield it against heat generated by connected components such as graphics cards.
Clearly, keeping temperatures down is a big focus for the company. The Sabertooth P67 also has multiple sensors embedded throughout parts of the motherboard that provide accurate temperature readings that the motherboard uses to automatically adjust CPU and case fan speeds.
In any case, the Sabertooth P67 is one slick looking motherboard that'll fit dress codes where jackets are required.
Groan.

Want.
It looks cool, but I kinda like being able to see all the little resistors and capacitors when I look inside my case.
looks cool - make that "cover" universal, build custom universal covers for ALL components available on the market - and you have "blockPC" - anyone can build it and it would look cool
Looks cool, but despite the claims, I can imagine in hindering cooling rather than helping...
Nice small typeface addition at the end!
Seems a little pointless to be pulling air from your CPU cooler accross components, afterall the air from that source is normally quite warm.
What i'd like to of seen is a similar design, but with transparent plastic so you still could see all the cool looking chippy bits and a socket at the fromt and rear of the enclosure which you could fit an adjustable attachment to. That way you could directly connect a front intake and rear outflow fan to the enclosure, pulling direct cool air accross. This looke like an enthusiast based bored so most folks will have large gaming cases capable of additional fan installation.
