During CES 2022, CyberPowerPC unveiled the Kinectic Series Chassis, a truly one-of-a-kind PC case that automatically adjusts airflow via 18 individually controlled vents. These vents continuously open and close in real-time according to internal temperatures, giving the impression that the PC is literally breathing.
More specifically, the Kinectic Series Chassis will check the temperature every five seconds, adjusting the various vents as appropriate. According to the company, the concept for the new case was borrowed from Kinetic architecture, which is focused on designing buildings so that their structures can move and adjust according to environmental pressures.
CyberPowerPC plans to release the Kinectic Series Chassis sometime in the third quarter of 2022. The unit will be available in either black or white and will be priced at around $250.
