I am thinking about getting the Thermaltake VA8000BWS Armour Super Tower from OC , does anyone have one or can give me any advice , i think the case looks stunning

no i dont have one but i think you need to get it just on its looks

i have that case... it is very nice ok build quality but its solid steel weights more than an american at an open buffet... you will also be able to fit that american inside it

its a monster case... perfect for a water system

Personally I think it is a nice case, great spec, but there are many people here on these forums that will recomend against Thermaltake despite the fact they get good reviews.

Got that case its cool keeps componements cool heavy aswell.

It is not a bad case, although some of the reviewers who quote build quality don't know what it is if it hit them round the back of the head.

Ive said what I think of reviews enough before that if they are not comparative reviews in a face off with cases, the reviews are 100% useless.

like the front, but that side window is a little busy for my liking.

Not my taste, but if you like it, get it. How bad can it be?

I've bought loads of Thermaltake stuff over the last 18 months and all of it has been surprisingly well made and pretty well thought through. Their fans are excellent, and good value too.

Its a very functional case, but the looks arnt for me, I fully understand people who think it looks a great case, I can see where they are coming from, but for me theres just a little bit too much going on diesgn wise, would be nicer if it was a little simpler.

But if the looks are your thing, go for it, you wont regret it.

I love this case soo much, i mean its Perfect for Air and water cooling.

Its also Solid, ive just modded mine so much now i wish in some ways i could take it back to the start.

There is meant to be a new version with a 25cm side fan coming but nowhere has it in stock yet.

PinkFloyd · 17 Apr 2006 at 21:52

Is everyone suddenly going to jump on the 25cm side fan bandwagon.
Imagine a Lian Li PC7+ with a 25cm fan in the side :s

The cases looks aren't anything too spectacular in my eyes but the cooling that the case offers does seem quite good.

I don't like the front, maybe a big door on it with a nice design on it I would like it.

Don't like the stupid flaps or big eye thing at the top. Should be a better design and no flaps, should clip into the case to open and clase. Then I would really love it.
