Horrible case looks even more horrible. You'd think they would at least match up the colours on the case, LED's and cooling fluid.

Thermaltake water cooling gear is poor to say the least & that's been kind.

I actually quite like the level 10 gt, but that lcs is disgustingly bad

Maybe I'm wrong here but it looks like exactly the same case with a watercooling kit included.

You can change the colour of the LEDs so if it's the issue then it isn't much of one.

Just screams shoddy workmanship to me. It's an expensive case, the least I would want is it being colour co-ordinated.

Never understood these cases, horrible things

Thermaltake watercooling = Fail

Case is ok though, unique.

I thought the first one was great, it was an interesting design and something that hadn't really been done before.

However this new one is rubbish, they took everything that made the first one interesting or noteworthy and produced a POS. So pretty much Thermaltake being Thermaltake.

Here's the original if you've not seen it (linked 'cos it's a big pic): http://www.maximumpc.com/files/u90693/level10_full.jpg

Completely agree with these comments. You can recognise the idea of the original in the current one, but barely. Pity.

Good work Thermalfail, once again you've produced something that looks terrible, performs terribly, is way overpriced, yet people will still buy it.

Didnt Thermaltake use to be decent whats happend to them?

Amidar · 27 Sep 2011 at 13:02

Thermaltake have never been decent.

Apem · 27 Sep 2011 at 13:14

I thought they used to be a very popular case maker

Popular yes, but never any good.

They were only popular because they appealed to the 'ZOMG IT HAS LIGHTS' crowd which has died down a bit now, with people favouring slightly less OTT cases.

CaptainUnlikely · 27 Sep 2011 at 23:57

The only products Thermaltake have ever made which have been decent are some of their Toughpower PSUs, but even those are generally overpriced. Oh, and I had some Thermaltake Silent Cat 80mm fans which weren't terrible. Pretty much everything else they've ever made has been garbage in terms of features, price, and especially build quality.

I liked my thermaltake tsunami dream case!

It survived two major upgrades and increased heat loads just fine
