Thermaltake Level 10 GT Computer Case

Packaging:

The exterior packaging is a standard retail box. I hope its packed well because as you can see UPS has done a fair job testing the durability of this box.

With the Box open I am pleasantly surprised, in addition to the standard Styrofoam inserts this case has come with a felt bag to protect the case.

A Closer Look:

Looking at the exterior of this case, its pretty impressive, aside form some of the obvious I really enjoy the matte black finish, I always hate when you get a brand new case and it does nothing but attract dust and fingerprints. On the downside you will have less evidence when your friends are fondling your brand new case…

	Performance cooling made quiet:  one top 200mm exhaust fan, one front 200mm intake fan, one side 200mm intake fan and one rear 140mm exhaust fan.
	Hinged side panel to enable easier opening of the side door and access to computer for maintenance or upgrade.
	Dramatically improved cable management. User no longer “hides” the excessive cable on the back, the Level 10 GT features numerous holders designed into the chassis for cable management.
	Five hot-swappable hard drive bays, each with its dedicated backplane to support hot-swap. Hard drive mounting supports both 2.5″ or 3.5″ drives.
	Connectivity array. Four USB 2.0 ports are conveniently located on the front bezel including a pair of audio ports. Two USB 3.0 ports and one eSATA port located on the top.
	Water cooling ready – 120mm or 240mm radiators can be easily attached to the top side of the chassis (top 200m fan needs to be removed)
	Fan speed management control embedded. ColorShift fans can be easily controlled through controls on the top.
	Fully black-powdered interior.

This case is pretty serious, There are two locks (keyed the same) for both the main motherboard compartment, and the hard drive trays.

At first glance some things I noticed:

• the fans all have mesh for dust protection, and in most cases the filter is removable for washing
• The 5.25 doors are all easily removable without tools
• there are THREE water cooling exhaust ports!!!
• The case is SUBSTANTIALLY lighter than the original Level 10

The Nitty Gritty Interior:

I don’t think you understand the shear amount of room you have inside of this case. Also pay attention to the detail that Thermaltake put in the cable management, this is straight out of the box folks, this neat and tidy wiring is factory installed. all of the wiring is set up for the fan controllers, and I particularly like the door fans power mechanism. Thermaltake could have wired that puppy up and called it a day, instead they made the door part of the electrical connection.
