What's better than one high tier gaming rig? A double-decker gaming rig, according to Thermaltake

Thermaltake revealed the stacked Capo X dual system PC case, which enjoys the footprint of a micro tower chassis with some additional height on top, during this year's Computex. Why would anyone want to keep two systems inside the same PC case? The showfloor pitch centred on—you guessed it—AI applications, but there are other reasons besides.

Besides thrashing against local AI models, this double-decker setup will likely also appeal to streamers (it definitely helps if your streaming rig is either already really powerful, or doesn't have to give over resources to the game you're playing). Alternatively, if you have just enough room in your gamer den for two desks but only one PC tower, this could be a space-saving option for you and your player two.

The Capo X can house two independent Micro ATX systems, and you can gaze longingly upon the doubled up computer guts through the case's seamless, curved glass panel. Besides two small-ish motherboards, the Capo X also offers enough clearance for two 360mm radiators as well as up to 13 120mm fans.

That's just as well as while one gaming PC can get toasty on all its own, two systems in close proximity are going to need all the help with cooling they can get. If you happen to be a console gamer like me and keep all of your gaming gear in the same room, then on a hot summer's day you'll know exactly what I mean.

If you are set on sharing a set-up, this PC case mercifully includes double the IO ports. In addition to the set you can see at the front of the tower, there's also another I/O set situated on the very top.

This wasn't the only example of outside the box thinking Thermaltake showcased at Computex (or very much inside the box, as the case may be). The company also exhibited a PSU that splits in two…on purpose for easier installation. Neat!

As for the Capo X, OC3D.net claims the PC case will be available in the US later this month, and cost about $190. You and your player two will have to decide between either a standard black chassis, or the all-over white 'Snow' colourway.
