    Of course people make a rush to comment, not realizing this is made for industrial use and a high-end component considering.

    This is an impressive PC considering it's not just fanless, but completely enclosed and fairly small.

    Everyone besides @vestibule apparently has no idea what this is for. Industrial PC's are designed to be put in areas where the PC will likely need to be on and running 24/7 in an environment where they may not be easily accessed in the event of overheating or component failure. These may be put in manufacturing plants, server rooms, or one of many other locations where a dead fan causing CPU overheating or a disk error causing instability/crashes could cause major issues and time/money losses for the business operating them. These aren't built to be put on a desk next to you or be used as PC's in an office. They have specific use cases and are built to a higher standard than typical tower PC's.

    -1 for all of you lol.

    Fanless Compact cases exist. and mini-itx motherboards with DC input exist ~$150 , and it is not a big deal Passive cooling a 45 watts i7 CPU (~$280)..

    $2000 ? no thank you.

    even $1000 is too much for this .

    and their case ? you can find it in china easy for $100 only

    It'll only work in Colder Climates or as a once a week turn on PC but other than that it will over heat with the most simplest of task on my C2D just browsing folders Temps increase by 1.4C just imagine how much it will increase playing an online game on facebook! not worth it! oh maybe as a HTPC ??
