So, how exactly do you get into this case? Simply push down on the top panel and it’ll click and pop up.
With that released, you can simply lift the panel up and put it to one side.
As you can see, this is the “back” of the case, where you’ll find your GPU exhaust, the motherboard rear I/O, and there’s a fan here, so all the heat from the PC is allowed to flow upwards, which should be great for cooling performance.
The fan is one of Thermaltake’s own, and it comes with adjustable screw holes should you need to move it around.
The top panel has a mesh filter to it, not to catch dust, but more to stop bits dropping into the top of your PC.
There are proper dust filters on the intakes in the bottom and rear of the case though, ensuring dust isn’t pulled in.
With the rear panel removed, you’ll find another 120mm fan, while also freeing up a surprisingly amount of space for cable routing and additional cooling mounts.
There’s a lot of space here, with cable routing holes, and even a large rubber grommet.
The PSU mount is located down in the bottom, and that too has a surprising amount of room, so hiding all your excess cables should be pretty easy.
Each of the side panels is a actually made from multiple sections. The lower ones have more ventilation, and even have dust filters of their own.
Behind them, you can see more room to access various mounts, routing areas, etc.
As you can see, all three of them are removable.
Then you can strip away the top panel shroud too.
Then you can lift all the glass panels out of the way… starting to get a large pile of panels behind me at this point.
Then if you’re really getting into it, that rear panel can be removed.
The shroud can be removed.
The SSD mounts can also be removed.
These covers can be removed, allowing more room for cooling hardware. Enough removing things…I’m going to build a system now, join me on the next page to see one I prepared earlier!
