Thermaltake S500 Steel TG Case Review
Peter Donnell / 5 years ago
How Much Does it Cost?
The Thermaltake S500 Steel TG is a premium case with premium construction. So, you would expect it to cost £250, right? OK, maybe just £150? Sounds pretty reasonable to me. However, at just £99.90 I thought Thermaltake was pulling my leg, but nope, it’s a sniff under £100, and that makes it extremely appealing.
Overview
Thermaltake is one of the biggest names in the PC market. Not just for their cases, but also their PSUs, RAM, peripherals, and so much more. They’ve got a huge fan base and a lot of years experience, and it shows. What I love about the S500 Steel TG is just how clean and bold it looks. If you want something completely bonkers, Thermaltake has you covered though. Just look at their beastly Level 20 series for example. However, if you want something that’s going to make you the king of the office, or even just something clean, tidy, and durable at home, the S500 Steel TG is the way to go.
Competition
The Thermaltake S500 Steel TG is an impressive solution. At this price point, it makes it phenomenally competitive with what else is on the market. Sure, Corsair, Antec, Lian Li and a bunch of others have impressive products around this price point. However, as subjective as it can be, I think the S500 Steel TG can hold its head up high against anything the competition has.
Should I Buy One?
Durable steel construction, that slick matte black finish, and style that is simply hard to beat at this price point. It looks like it’s worth way more than it is, and it’s built to a standard worth of a higher price point too. With impressive cooling support, great cable routing, and a unique PCIe mounting system, it’s easily one of the coolest cases around right now. Highly recommended!
