Thermaltake Suppressor F51 Chassis Review

Interior
Each side panel is coated with a thick layer of sound dampening material. The side panels are already thick and heavy, so this thing is hard for bullets to pass through, let alone sound waves.
The interior is very spacious and there’s a huge CPU cooler mounting cut-out behind the motherboard, as well as lot of large cable routing grommets to help keep things neat and tidy.
There’s a stack of removable hard drive bays in a 3+3 format, so you can quickly customise the layout to suit your needs.
Each tray is tool free for 3.5″ drives, while 2.5″ drives can be screwed into place.
Tool free mounts on the two 5.25″ drive bays.
To help reduce vibrations, there’s a foam trim around the PSU cut-out, as well as a movable mounting rail with rubber pads.
Eight expansion slots, with reusable ventilated covers and thumb screws; more than enough room here for a multi GPU configuration.
The rear 140mm fan is of a good quality, but you could easily swap this out for a 120/140mm fan of your own, or a similar sized water cooling radiator.
Three more sound proofing panels are screwed into the top, you can remove them separately to increase the amount of space you need for top mounting cooling fans/radiators or simply leave them all in place; the choice is yours.
Behind the motherboard you’ll find a good amount of cable routing space, as well as a few cable tie loops to help keep things neat and tidy.
Two of the front hard drive tray can be removed and suspected behind the drive trays, giving you two extra hard drive bays; very handy if you’ve removed the front bays to make room for a large radiator.
