Concrete PC Cases

The Concretronic Computer Case is a Construction-Quality PC Mod

— November 21, 2010 — Unique
Modder D. Heiße has created a computer case that is impervious to almost all of life's little (and gigantic) mishaps. The Concretronic computer case is made out of concrete, and was created for the Be-Quiet! Casecon Contest.

The Concretronic computer case certainly looks to soundproof as well as blastproof. My favorite feature of D. Heiße's case mod has to be the concrete power and hard drive buttons. Check out the case above in all its glory and read below to find out more about the awesome and amazing Concretronic computer case.
Trend Themes
1. Durable PC Cases - Creating computer cases out of unusual materials like concrete could lead to the development of more durable, long-lasting and stable computer cases that could protect computer hardware better as well as prevent environmental damage to the computer.
2. Eco-friendly PC Cases - Making computer cases from eco-friendly and sustainable materials like concrete could be an opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint of the computer manufacturing industry.
3. Creative PC Mods - The creation of custom PC cases like the Concretronic could become more prevalent as people look to make their desktops unique, personal and a work of art.
Industry Implications
1. Computer Hardware Manufacturing - Computer hardware manufacturers could explore making cases out of new materials to improve durability and stability of their products while protecting them from environmental factors.
2. Sustainable Manufacturing - Companies in the manufacturing industry should look at ways to make their products more eco-friendly and sustainable to reduce the impact of manufacturing on the environment.
3. DIY PC Modding - As more people take to personalizing their computer hardware, there could be an opportunity for a new market for unique, custom-designed computer cases.
