A Closer Look - Outside

Out of the box, all glass panels are covered in the usual protective layer, but Thermaltake also includes two stickers which have been placed on the glass directly. While most brands, including Thermaltake, have switched to either weak adhesive or even vinyl stickers without any glue for their "tempered glass" warning stickers, this additional one is for some reason made out of paper and comes with some serious glue. It took me a while to get off; I ultimately used vinegar to rub the glass panel clean. While it worked well enough, this really distracts from the unboxing experience. Thermaltake is looking at replacing these with better ones in the future.


Looking at the case from the front, both Divider 300 variants look quite nice. I am always a big fan of clean and understated looks. The Thermaltake Divider 300 TG ARGB pulls this off flawlessly with the clear glass panels and framing that matches the color of the case. The white one looks especially beautiful as you can clearly see the three white ARGB fans perfectly centered, almost hovering behind the panel. You may pull the glass off with a firm tug, which gives you access to a fine, magnetic dust filter that is easily removable as well.


On the main side, you will find a unique two-piece panel that is made out of steel for one piece and clear glass for the other. The glass is shaped beautifully to match the opposite side and also framed perfectly in the case color. Look closely and you can see that Thermaltake added a little crease to the steel, as well as a small air vent. While it looks nice, I really don't see how this could help with airflow in any way, and it simply takes away from the maximum height for air cooling inside the Divider 300. A better approach would have been a flat panel with an air vent along the 45° edge, for example, with a dust filter behind it for good measure.


On the opposite panel, you will find such an air vent and mesh cover for the side fan/radiator mount. Looking at the rear, things looks quite traditional with the PSU on the bottom of the chassis.


Taking a closer look at the back of the black version of the Thermaltake Divider 300 TG ARGB, you can see that the PSU bay comes with two sets of mounting holes. Above that are the seven horizontal expansion slots with the same modular ability for the user to rotate the panel 90° to make these vertical for GPU placement. In the very top is a simple 120 mm exhaust fan set to push air out the back. You will also find this fan in the white version, but a nice touch would have been a white variant to go with the rest of the pre-installed cooling units of the Divider 300 TG ARGB Snow edition.


Looking at the top, you will find the possibility to mount a single 120 or 140 mm fan in the ceiling. Usually, one finds space for at least two fans or a radiator of up to 240 mm in the ceiling, but Thermaltake is clearly banking on the side-placement opportunity for that. Towards the front, you will find a USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C and two USB 3.0 connectors alongside the classic audio plugs. The power button has a ring that acts as both the power and hard drive activity indicator.
