ThermaltakeAluminum Tempered Glass Atx Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case Tempered Glass Ca-1L3-00M9Wn-00

I bought the case sight-unseen, so I was surprised by how large it is compared to other mid-tower cases. Other than that, the design and build quality of the case are second to none. The side panel glass is sculpted to the shape of the filters and outer aluminum shell, which is a detail that I have not seen on other cases. In addition, the only plastic I could find in the case was a few flexible clips used to retain the front and top panels--the rest of the body is either glass or metal. While this means the case is heavy, it also means it's durable and impressive to look at. There was plenty of room inside to tuck cables and hard drives out of the way, and there's a provision for a vertical GPU mount (which I didn't use). I put together an ATX Z390 build with an i9-9900k, OC GTX 1080, and Corsair H100i Pro, and cooling/space is no issue.Clearly, at over $200, this is not a budget case and won't appeal to PC builders on a budget. However, if you're looking for (in my opinion) the best looking case on the market with build quality to back it up, this is the one to get, and I recommend it without hesitation.

It is pretty, a lot of aluminium and a lot of glass. Gills to let air flow is placed on the side and top giving the design good symmetry. All-glass side panel opens like a door, and glass shows the RGB build clearly.It is big, just a few centimetres from categorising as full tower. Quite wide, giving more space for cable management on the back. Has slots for 6x hard disks. Aluminium plates are thick and sturdy.It is flawed, the front panel was ill fitting, rotated clockwise slightly and warped in the top right slightly. The glass doors are too heavy, double the weight of cases with acrylic panels. The air intake is limited, this case likely will run negative pressure and be dusty inside. Magnetic door closer does not work reliably because the mounting tape failed. Aluminium is used as decor, not as cooling. USB type C uses USB3.0 headers, so if you have USB3.2 type E header like me and don't have 2x USB3.0 headers, you have to give up this port.I still find the case lovely. This build is not for gaming so heat and airflow won't be an issue. I need storage size, less so speed, so this works well too. The case has to look premium, and this is achieved.

The more I looked at it the more I like it. Amazing design. Materials are top of the line. Lot of space to do whatever setup you are looking for.

Love the case. Plenty of room and quiet. However, it was advertised as aluminum and the entire case is steel except for the beautification covers on top and front. I should have known from the shipping weight, but figured that was due to the tempered glass on both sides which is nice. It weighs empty twice as much as my actual aluminum case fully loaded. Hope it can keep stuff cool because I am almost too old to lift the darn thing. All on my though. Should have researched better. Also the front plugs are located on TOP of the case with absolutely no protection. Not well thought out as most folks actually do eat and drink while gaming so absolutely everything that falls off the keyboard will go right into the outlets. I ordered a rubber plug kit to protect them but it didn't include a class c plug. Yay. Even with all this the design and innovation of the case is stellar, therefore I kept it and gave it 4 stars. Very nice case if you can live with the rest.

So far so good. Great packaging and a nice size to the case. Quality materials.
