A Closer Look – Exterior
The redesign of the Tower 300 is pretty significant, as the case looked great before, but Thermaltake has ditched the more rectangular design in favour of this stunning octagonal prism shame. There’s still tempered glass on the front, but it now features a pillarless design that flows into two smaller side-angled windows, giving you a more wrap-around look.
Ventilation is also greatly increased, with a larger ventilated section up on the top, which now sports a pair of fans on the top rather than a single fan design.
There’s a compact but well-equipped I/O panel, which includes USB Type-C.
There’s ventilation all around the base now too, and even the smaller corner sections have their own inlets to ensure you get maximum airflow.
Down each side of the case, there’s not a significantly larger intake, with a full-size dust filter on both sides, ensuring you get more airflow and cleaner airflow to your hardware.
This new version of the case is also quite a bit bigger than the previous model, allowing for more fans, larger fans, and in more placements than ever before, such as the dual fan mounts on the reverse of the case.
There’s an opening at the top here since your motherboard I/O and the rear of your GPU will actually be hidden under this top cover, so you can route cables out this way.
The case supports an ATX PSU of up to 220mm, so you can get a pretty potent PSU in here, which is a good thing, given this case can now fit a massive GPU such as the RTX 4090.
But a big GPU isn’t the only impressive upgrade, as the side of the case will now handle up to a 420mm AIO, seriously, a 420mm AIO in this case, that is crazy… and that’s exactly what I’ll be doing later in my build just to prove it.
