Thermaltake has created a new Xaser case, and this time it is a monster. The Xaser VI is a huge "super-tower" case with room for Extended ATX motherboards, seven 5.25" bay devices, seven hard drives and up to ten PCI slots. There is an incredible amount of ventilation with the mesh on the front, top and sides, and there are even some other features that make this an ideal watercooling case.

that's one hell of a big case. those 790fx boards would easily accommodate this case. I mean, 10 PCI slots? Really nice.

Alot bigger than I remember the Xasers being. Im impressed by the girth of this beast. Albeit, the price is also alot higher than I remember these cases being. For the price of this, I can get the Kosmos and be good to go. Oh and a nice water cooling setup :roll:

Excellent review, but holy crap - Thermaltake's design team need a slap. The aesthetics are disgusting.

I think the design is much more subtle than previous Xaser cases. However, (as stated in the review) if you like the features but not the design there is also the Armor+ case with a much more traditional design. Under the hood, they are both the same.

that is a massive case :twitch:

You could build your own personal server tower with that chasis :p

Although, I found it somewhat similar to the CM Stacker 83x series . . . maybe that's just me :confused:
