I'm tempted to forgive Thermaltake for ripping off their entire 15/16 lineup if it means they spent the profit on R&D and the rest of the 16/17 lineup looks like this :D
Regards,
I don't know about the $300USD price tag, though.
Also, the weight is crazy at 25.5 KG or about 56 LBS. :eek:
Oh well... its Tt's first original design in quite a while technically anyway
the story behind the case: was developed inspired on a Tt case mod from their challenge...!
i love Level 10 design lineup for example, looking forward a new headset cause the lineup its too hot, i own mouse and always wanted the case but my wallet is not able to do it for me! but im glad that i have been using the brand and having great time with products, also have had plenty of their mid towers...
PD: what a beautiful avatar you have my friend, doggy high5 for ya :toast:
Regards,
I still have one of their V6000 cases:
About 5 or 6 years ago I had that case powder coated for an old modded system I did. Heck, it might have been 8 years ago now.
Of course, back when that case was newish, 92mm fans were the "big" fans. :laugh:
Regards,
Now, if it was aluminum rather than steel, I could see buying one.
My current chassis, a Tt Xaser VI (VG4000SNA) retailed for over $300US when it was released.
I was one who fought against TT in hopes they will learn.
Today, this is completely different. I see this and I am blown away on what Tower 900 can do.
Bravo TT for a great case.

Only thing which can stop me is death. :P
brb harvesting flying bacon
TP is heavy though and there are 3 panels
I'd like to see it on wheels
Good to see you still out there stinger hope all is well
I see case of the year honors 2017
Finally something different and with a somewhat unique styling to go with it...
Don't care who makes it, at least it is an honest attempt to move away from the same old boring, repeatedly ho-hum beige boxen yesteryear clone which is the same as everyone else but with a different name tag...
Don't care about the weight either, but I would also like to see a cnc-machined aluminum version of this too...although I realize that would probable double or triple the price tag, which is already at or near the max limit of what most normal people would consider paying for a case...
so, come tax refund time, this is M*I*N*E... :D
