Exclusively "Tt LCS Certified"
Tt LCS Certified is a Thermaltake exclusive certification applied to products that pass the design and rigorous hardcore enthusiast standards that only the world's best LCS chassis are held to. The Tt LCS certification was created so that we at Thermaltake can clearly convey to power users and enthusiasts which chassis are built and tested to be best compatible under extreme liquid cooling configurations. This ensures you get the best performance, compatibility and features.

Features o f Thermaltake Core P5 Tempered Glass Edition ATX Wall-Mount Chassis Series:

Built for Makers
By practicing and incorporating the idea of "maker movement" as well as 3D printing, Thermaltake designs the open frame panoramic viewing chassis as anyone can access and do his/her own mods as well as print out his/her own ideas using available liquid cooling components and manuals without boundaries. All the files are available to download on 3dmakers.thermaltake.com.

5mm Thick Tempered Glass Window with Stunning Viewing
The Core P5 series is a true open frame case with viewing capability of showing front and back full sides. The tempered glass panels feature 5mm thickness that meets the highest standards in the industry. Moreover, unlike any other cases on the market, the enlarged glass windows permit users to fully display every RGB component of the system, and show off their dedication and skill set.

DMD - Dismantlable Modular Design
Users are allowed to freely build the system from the ground up with given modular panels, racks, brackets, and pre-design mounting arrays. No more unreachable screw corners or gaps and enjoys installation in a breeze with Dismantlable Modular Design.

Versatile GPU & PSU Orientation
Show off your graphic card and power supply with Thermaltake's special design bracket. The Core P5 series has included a riser cable for you to choose the way you want to build the system. Further, the Core P5 series also has the support for vertical PSU layout when ITX motherboard is applied.

Remarkable Expansion
Designed for high-end gaming system compatibility, the Core P5 series supports motherboard up to standard ATX, a tower CPU cooler with maximum height 180mm, and a dual expansion slot VGA of up to 320mm in length without reservoir. Further, the modular drive racks allow users to easily install up to four 3.5"/2.5" storage devices. Users can remove the drive bays to gain maximum space for cable management up to 45mm.

Supreme Liquid-Cooling Support
The Core P5 series has the capability to deliver an excellent cooling efficiency, and enables users to build a complete thermal solution, including DIY/AIO liquid-cooling systems and air-cooling units. It supports up to either 480mm liquid cooling radiator, or a 140mm case fans with a long graphic card at the same time. Users can also install an AIO cooler onto the case after mounting the AIO bracket.

Lol..after two days usage all you'll see is the dust inside and spend every spare moment trying, and failing, to keep it out.

Completely and utterly impractical for home use.

Ha! I'm using an InWin 901 and an InWin 805 here. They are glass cases, but they're ~smoked-glass~ and hard to see into. They collect dust just like any other case does and I clean them just as often as the rest of them.
Note that the interior glass doesn't collect a lot of dust, but the exterior does.

This case is designed for viewing your build. It does that well. The looks are not what I'm used to but I don't hate it.
Its thermal handling characteristics are different than other designs, so I would like to see comprehensive reviews before I call it "bad", or say "yeah!".
Capabilities speak louder to me than looks, 90% of the time. If it works well, I like it better.

It surely does lay open your build for total inspection.
I like the black one better.

It's crazy how expensive these tempered glass cases are. I have two glass computer desks that nearly cost the same prize.
