Test System

Assembly

Installing the motherboard is done by using traditional spacers and screws. There is plenty of space for cable routing at the top and to the right of the board, but the bottom only comes with a single opening in the shroud, so your final result will not look quite as clean as it could with more cutouts.


Adding an SSD to the metal tray is straightforward as you screw your unit down and place it back into one of four possible locations—simply use the thumb screw to keep it there.


The 3.5" trays are completely tool-less, but optionally use screws if you like. Once you snap the drive in, just slide it back into the cage until the whole contraption clips in securely.


To install the PSU, slide it in through the side and ensure it rests on those four foam spacers. As those are pretty big, you have to watch out—make sure not to detach them from the floor in the process. Once in place, the unit is secured with four traditional case screws. There is a good amount of space, so don't worry when going with a higher capacity unit of good quality to power your gaming components.


Once all the parts are in place, the interior is quite alright in terms of tidiness. That big opening on the bottom is working against you a little bit when it comes to making it all disappear, and filling both spots for SSDs on the shroud will make that area much busier as well.

Finished Looks

Turning on the Sharkoon TG6 is quite the unique experience for a mainstream chassis. The brown hue on the front glass panel along with the uniquely shaped LED framing on the fans really set it apart from an otherwise very understated chassis. On top of the case, a white LED lights up to let you know that the system is powered on.


While you can see a little secondary ring within the fans when viewing the chassis at an angle, those are invisible when viewed from the front, with a soft square on each of the units. With only a gentle gray tint on the side window, you can see all your hardware within the system, but the three intake fans in front do not add much internal illumination because their LED rings aren't facing inward.

You may cycle through several multi and single-color animations, but the Sharkoon TG6 also offers several solid color options, which you can take a look at below.
