The premium brand for PC Case, Cooling, Power, and memory solutions, is excited to announce the brand-new Ceres 500 TG gaming PC chassis set to debut during CES 2023. Thermaltake's Ceres 500 TG ARGB is built to bring optimal thermal performance through the three-meshed metal panels, which are intended to obtain more cooling air intake for excellent ventilation. Thermaltake Ceres 500 TG ARGB gaming chassis is optimized for both Air and AIO water cooling options and includes support for up to 420 mm radiator sizes. In addition, the chassis comes preinstalled with four CT140 ARGB Fans for robust air-cooling efficiency out of the box.

The Ceres 500 TG ARGB boasts a unique mesh front and top panel with removable air filters, a solid metal frame, and four pre-installed CT140 ARGB fans, and it can accommodate AIO radiators up to 420 mm. Furthermore, the 3 mm thick tempered glass side panel is hinged for convenience and creates a framed view of the components inside. With its optimized cooling performance, customization options, and modern aesthetics, the Ceres 500 TG ARGB would be an ideal chassis for the next custom gaming build.




Key features of the Ceres 500 TG ARGB Mid Tower Chassis
  • Four new CT140 ARGB fans are pre-installed, with three at the front and one in the rear.
  • Hinged 3 mm Tempered Glass Side Panel
  • Support for 3.9" LCD panel kit through TT RGB Plus 2.0 software
  • Patented rotational PCI-E slots to display graphics cards either horizontally or vertically,
  • Riser cable bracket allowing for 90-degree or 180-degree riser cable installation
  • Storage support for up to a total of five 3.5" HDDs or up to eight 2.5" SSDs


Availability
Ceres 500 TG ARGB will be available in the middle of January in major retailers.

At a glance this case looks like it was peppered with a shotgun.
I don't like the perforation choice. It's inconsistent and just looks like it'd perform ever so slightly worse than just having a consistent cut out.

On the marketing materials they call it a mosquito's net.

So I suppose it's of interest for those people that want the look of dead bugs on the front of their case.

Strange.

A lot of perforations on this case including PSU shroud and side. Placement of that LCD is a letdown and that display would have been far more useful if placed on front or top(with tilting capability).
