Thermaltake The Tower 600 Mid Tower Case Review

A Closer Look – Interior

This case is obviously quite unique, well, at least compared to most other PC cases, as it’s actually quite similar to other recent The Tower series cases, with the difference in size being the key change here. However, it has a significant number of removable panels. There’s the front glass, two side glasses, two side panels, a rear panel, a top panel, a bottom panel, and five smaller panels around the bottom edge. My point is that if you need access to this case, it’s pretty easy to just get into the area you need the most.

Or, if it is time for a bigger session of installing or changing hardware, you can strip it all back to near the bare frame and this will make it very easy to install bigger hardware, route cables, or just have a really good clean inside your case.

There’s a cover over the PSU mounting area, which as you can see, is also ventilated and offers up some room to mount cooling hardware too. Like everything else here, these two plates are also removable allowing for more access or further customisation.

The rear mounting plate is obviously where your motherboard goes, and it has a large cut-out to help with CPU cooler mounting, cable routing cut-outs for traditional cable routing, and BTF cut-outs for newer motherboards with rear-mounted cable connectors.

There are seven expansion slots, obviously at the top of the case, as The Tower 600 mounts the motherboard rotated 90 degrees. This means your GPU will hang vertically, which I think looks very cool, but it also promotes cool air from the bottom and warm air out of the top, which is obviously ideal as warm air rises anyway.

There’s a cut-away below the GPU mount, allowing for a longer graphics card, but again, that panel is removable below it anyway, so you can make even more room, or you can remove the right side too if you really want to open it all up.

Around the back, you can see there’s a removable mounting plate, offering space to mount SSDs or an HDD.

Plus, there’s an additional SSD mounting plate in the bottom corner.

There’s lots of room back here for cable runs too, with straps on the left and right sides to ensure you can keep everything neat and tidy.

While two more removable covers, yes, I missed two earlier, on the rear angled corners actually allow access to the cables too, just making it a bit easier to route them and strap them down.
