Thermaltake Shows New PC Cases at CES 2025

Thermaltake took CES 2025 show by force, showing a lot of new and updated products, including a couple of new PC cases. In addition to new color options for the already available The Tower 600 and The Tower 250 PC cases, it also showcased a couple of new and rather interesting cases, including the TR100 Travel PC Case, which will be available with an optional travel suite case accessory, making it ideal for LAN parties, professional gaming tournaments, or remote work setups. Thermaltake also showcased the new View 390 and View 600 PC cases, as well as a couple of workstation cases, the AX500 and the AX700.

The TR100 Travel PC case is an 18.9-liter dual-chamber chassis, which packs quite a few features, considering it is meant to be portable. Thermaltake was keen to note that it designed the case to be as portable as possible without compromising support for high-end hardware, making it ideal for digital nomads, esports enthusiasts or professionals that demand both performance and portability. It supports up to 360 mm long and 70 mm tall graphics cards, up to 280 mm AIO radiator or two 120/140 mm fans, comes with perforated panels and dust filters for dust and debris protection, and supports up to two 2.5-inch SSDs. Of course, it only supports SFX or SFX-L power supplies, but this should not be a problem as Thermaltake already showcased a 1,200 W SFX PSU at the CES 2025 show. The TR100 also comes with a rather neat optional travel suite case accessory, which has room for both the PC case, portable monitor, keyboard, mouse, and even a Meta Quest headset.
As said, Thermaltake also showcased the new View 390 and View 600 PC case, which continue the legacy of the previously available View series cases, offering full view of the internal hardware thanks to connected front/top and side panel. The View 600 is a dual-chamber PC case, while the View 390 sticks to a standard configuration. They also feature a display, which will most likely be an optional accessory.
Thermaltake also showcased two new workstation options, the AX700 and the AX500, both now in white option. The AX700 is a workstation-style full-tower chassis with support for XL-ATX motherboard, increased airflow, and support for up to 420 mm radiator and a total of 19 fans. It also supports multiple graphics cards and up to eighteen hard drives. The AX500 is more of a mainstream workstation-style full-tower chassis with support for an EEB motherboard, but also supports multiple graphics cards, up to seven hard drives, and up to 420 mm radiator. Thermaltake also plans an entry-level AX300 at some point in time, as well as the AX100, which is an add-on for the AX700.
The TR100 Travel PC Case will be available in January with MSRP of $119.99, with the Travel Suite Case accessory announcement coming at a later date. The View 600 is still in a concept phase, while the View 390 is coming in Q2 2025, with planned MSRP of $139.99. Thermaltake's optional 3.9-inch LCD Screen Kit will be sold of $79.99. The AX700 and the AX100 add-on are coming in January with MSRP of $399.99 and $149.99, while the AX500 comes in Q1 2025 with $169.99 MSRP.

TR100 looks like a case with a 5.25" bay in a year 2025. Pretty cool. Reminds me of Lian Li PC-Q08. Always loved it. By the way, Thermaltake has the new logo, but techpowerup seems to be stuck with their old one. Why is that? :P

...another year of glass and ARGBLED as the focus.

Great.

Man, I miss the days when PC cases tried to focus on cooling, space efficiency, and build quality instead of cosmetic gimmicks.

Sigh, will there ever be a PC Case with a closed Top instead of mesh again? One spilled cup of coffee and the system is history. Waiting for a classic front to rear ventilation and a closed side and top panels.

I love the formats they are going for, but damn, I hate that perforation pattern they are using all over the place. Completely kills any visual appeal for me.

Tr100 and AX series might be of interest to you, somehow AX series didnt get attention they should have from media.

TR100 does look promising, Paul's Hardware did a build in one a couple of weeks back, but it also commits the common crime of locking you into a mITX board for a case that quite clearly has enough room for an mATX one. There's at least 3 more slots of space below the bottom of the board in the TR100 and with an SFX PSU there's even enough length to the case (thanks to the obscene need to fit a 14" triple-slot GPU in a so-called "S"FF! :)
