Cons: The plastic end and the top slides back making it difficult to carry around because you have to grab it from the bottom and this case is not light. The tool-less pci plastic parts suck and I just took it off and threw it out. The included fans are very low power and one I even had to use my finger to get it started...lol. I just swapped those out for better fans. Did not diminish the value of the case though.
Pros: A very big case that can house just about anything internal. I love to do modding and found this case to be a perfect project. Love the mobo tray, wire management system and the cool top that covers the power buttons. Comment:
This is one of the best cases I have ever had and was a nice project to play around with. You can see a pic here of it http://www.houseofottawa.com/rig3.jpg As you can see there has been some modifications to fit 2 radiators for the water cooling system. The case had so much room and was basically the selling point for me plus the build quality of certain Thermaltake cases was also a seller as I have the Xaser III as well and is also a good case. I highly recommend this case to the enthusiast who likes to constantly tweak and needs the room. For someone who wants a LAN box this is not it. Too hard to carry around and is very awkward because of no lifting points. This review was modfied by poster @ 01-22-09 06:47 PM |
I recently got this case and am still putting my rig together, but I am very impressed with it. It may be big and bulky but its VERY sturdy and there is LOTS of room. As long as you are leaving this thing in one place it is probably the best case you've ever owned. Almost everything is removable (I removed the bottom 2 Hard drive bays because I don't need 7). Installing DVD drives is a breeze, all you do it remove the front plate (which is also really easy) and slide it in. Thanks to the amount of mesh (which is very strong) with a decent cooling system you could even easily have processors that run hot. Comes with an optional 5.25" storage unit and a storage unit in the top (top part slides back), perfect size for driver discs. The only real problems I have with mine is that the magnets to hold the front plate in place don't work well and my unit for some reason did not come with a Power LED cable and I'm not paying 60+ for shipping back to Thermaltake.
