So yeah I said marigold blue instead of hydrangea blue in the first part I apologize and beg forgiveness 🙏 CES 2024 Playlist - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eTDz3aGc1TQ.html

Good stuff you always do! Thanks for the coverage at CES!

@azhp42069 5 месяцев назад

I like how it's already fixed in closed captions even though the video has only been live for 10 minutes. Such dedication to quality and accuracy, keep it up

@SeaJay_Oceans 5 месяцев назад

Thermaltake should sell the case , and a fans kit, then you can buy one or both. I'm a 'fan' of 200mm fan set ups: huge , slow, thin & silent fans are best. Someone should make a case with two 5oo mm fans , one on each side, low RPMs & silent, but constant Air flow by both 500mm fans working together...

@TwstedTV 5 месяцев назад

$170 IT BETTER COME WITH FKNG FANS. !! You let them know that please Paul. I am REALLY get fed up with these companies charging a lot of money for cases, and they decide to strip it down even more. For $170 The back, top and front better come with fans. And not crappy ones either.

You’re the only one who’s covered this case to provide a closer look at the MOBO I/O so thank you very much great job on that. A lot of other content creators just skimmed over that part.

@TheFallenAngel13524 5 месяцев назад

The horizontal tower stand is a nice touch for the case.

@reyluna0 5 месяцев назад

I really want it! Love having a case that is unique and with this version it can be used as a center piece

@dividion8102 5 месяцев назад

Agreed. I have a couple Tower 100s from a few years ago that still look new, but this new design has some really nice improvements, like the pop-off glass panels. (on mine I have to remove the 4 screws holding the top down in order to slide out the panels) The octagon shape and dual orientations really give it some personality. I prefer black cases, so the other colors don't really do anything for me. And I really want to know what went wrong with Joe's new $10,000 computer. I hope there's a video on that.

I'm usually not into non-standard-shaped cases, but that Tower 300 looks neat. I might re-wrap my gaming PC with it.

@blumind_web2264 5 месяцев назад

At first I thought maybe but the internals just get uglier as I look at it and the clearance looks like a nightmare to work with

@davidpalmer4184 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Paul. Absolutely loved the case on it's side with a stand underneath it!

@user-tz5ck1xy5u 5 месяцев назад

Ceres is a dwarf planet, bro. Dwarf planet. The only one in the asteroid belt. Also, for anyone interested, the CTE C200 is a mini-ITX case.

@BeeWhere 5 месяцев назад

Love the blue and love the mATX case options. Hopefully the motherboard builders can come up with a standard, but I still think properly managed cables are perfectly clean.

@brianhunter4860 5 месяцев назад

The 300 case intrigues me a lot

@ouki4925 5 месяцев назад

Vertical orientation is apparently terrible according to Thermaltake’s thermal testing documentation. Strix 4090 ran at 79C and that card is known to run around 50-60C.

@marcinkarpiuk7797 5 месяцев назад

I have same problem with 6950xt and in that case its cos of vapor chamber which dont like vertical

@DownwithEA1 5 месяцев назад

I really like the 300 cases. I nearly bought the all white last year. The sideways stand really got my mind going on possible custom case themes. That is gonna be a lot of fun.

@TwstedTV 5 месяцев назад

That Cryo case is awesome. If it had 2 top panels would look like a capsule. Those new cases look really nice and those ram colors are nice too 🥰

@JLawL 4 месяца назад

My Tower 300 in dark green “The Terrarium” will be featured on PCPP once it’s done! And yes, it will have living plants, sphagnum moss, and even a small waterfall!

@Jerseyangel89 5 месяцев назад

This is the first CES in a long, long time that I've been generally positive about what's been shown.

@h2oincfs 5 месяцев назад

@ProfShikari 5 месяцев назад

The Tower 300 looks awesome, almost like a terrarium/aquarium design, I really like it.

@cschepers 5 месяцев назад

I think, once you get past entry-budget-level cases, shipping without fans is perfectly acceptable. My current build is in one of Thermaltake's entry-level cases (an old Versa V21, it's been great for its purpose) and eventually replaced the included fan with a matched set for the build. Was glad it was included for the initial stage of the build though.

@skyvzneldaddy9218 5 месяцев назад

Awesome coverage once again! wow, let's goooooooo Thermaltake!

@jackraptor695 5 месяцев назад

The alien chamber Tower 300 is so dope for my next Matx case swap

@MN-sc2uz 4 месяца назад

Thinking the same. Thinking of pre-ordering the bumblebee color.

@Alex-1776 4 месяца назад

@jerrywatson1958 5 месяцев назад

I didn't realize how much nice looking products Thermaltake has. Those towers and some of those fittings look good. I will add them to my 2024 list of pc parts to aquire for builds.

The periwinkle blue reference, perfect!

@devinbaines 5 месяцев назад

Great work, Paul and Joe!! Of all the onslaught of CES coverage, I always prefer yours the best.

@dangerwr 5 месяцев назад

I think there should be options with and without fans from ALL case manufacturers. At the very least, only include fans with entry level cases for new builders or those on a tight budget.

@kr00tman 5 месяцев назад

It was a pleasure meeting you briefly, thank you again for taking the time out of your busy schedule to chat for a minute. The psus were what caught my eye, they were soo small, and so light as well. I was kind of dumbfounded when I held them...can't wait to see what people do with sff builds in the future. The CTE E600 was also pretty amazing, I liked how you can either use glass or vented panels. When they told me the case didn't come with fans but had that nice pcie 4.0 x16 riser cable, I thought "id much rather have that then case fans" finally companies are starting to listen to what gamers want. Hope you had a great ces, I am finally recovering!

@dom1310df 5 месяцев назад

The Tower 300 has a sci-fi feel. Could almost have an alien sample inside.

@ThexBorg 5 месяцев назад

Been looking at mATX cases for the past month or so, and that Tower 300 definitely takes the cake

@davefroman4700 5 месяцев назад

Not often a case comes along that has me drooling, but the tower series has forced me to keep a towel handy.

@dragon2knight 5 месяцев назад

I've been a Tower Series fan for a long time, it's usually my go to for miniITX builds(Tower 100). Nice to see them evolving so well! That Bumblebee version is making my mouth water, lol. Great job as always Paul!

@franktibbitts3117 5 месяцев назад

Those new tower cases look fantastic. I suspect they'll be a little impractical and that front IO panel looks a little out of place... but still, I'd love that on my desk.

@Grimmwoldds 5 месяцев назад

The biggest problem is the hanging GPU. These days, with so many super long huge GPUs, you're really rolling the dice on if your GPU manufacturer did good work on the heatpipes or if the small amount of water is just going to pool at the lowest part of the heatpipes(i.e. as far from the GPU chip as possible) while your GPU melts.

@SweetLou0523 5 месяцев назад

I just built in the tower 500 and cooling is phenomenal compared to a conventional. Only issue is because the case is so huge, I needed to use many various cable extensions. Worth it though.

@ULTIMATExDOKU 5 месяцев назад

I love the new tower, I hope they do it for ATX MB 😁

Tower 300 looks awesome. Love the option to get the big AIOs inside with airflow fans as well.

@dazley8021 5 месяцев назад

I own one of their Tower 900 cases and its a fantastic case to work with. Abit on the heavier side, yeah, but so much room to play with! Running custom hard tubing is a breeze in that. So much stuff you can fit inside it, it's insane. Dual loop, a 560 radiator each, 400mm tall reservoir tubes... I wish they would make an updated version of that case.

@konic40 5 месяцев назад

11:08 look at the size difference of the pins on the 12vhp vs the robust older connectors

@WilReid 5 месяцев назад

The wraparound glass panels at the start made me think of museum display cases, and that's not a good thing. Everything inside it automatically felt old. The Tower 300 for some reason doesn't give that feeling. I think it's a really interesting case, and it may be the chamfered corners. BTW, it's octagonal, not hexagonal. The back corners are cut out too. Oh, and back wired motherboards are stupid. Just give room to pass the cables back and forth in sensible locations on the tray. And give room to actually have the cables in the back.

@shvdowsora 5 месяцев назад

Thermaltake is killing it as always. I've loved their stuff for a long time. Thanks Paul!

@MelonSplitter 4 месяца назад

@torileighr 5 месяцев назад

I have the Thermaltake Tower 900 and I absolutely love it, it's a beast of a case that is expandable beyond measure. These are cute, but too small for me.

@Pistol_Knight 5 месяцев назад

some nice cases in that lineup

@dr.manhattan4537 5 месяцев назад

Thermaltake toughpower PSU are one of the best imo. I had the original 1000w toughpower back in the day, with the mustard and ketchup wiring and the fish net wrap around it. It lasted 10 years and through three pc upgrades along with gpu cards (2008-2018). Now I have the Enermax MaxTytan 80+1250w PSU that has individually wrapped cables and came cable combs, which I still have for about 6 years.

@rodmorgan7041 5 месяцев назад

@pkennethv 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for showing how to get to the motherboard rear IO panel on the Tower 300 case. I've watched at least 3 other videos about it and none of them showed that and I've been wondering ever since.

@markwenzel8912 5 месяцев назад

Damn you and your CES coverage! I was all set to build in a Montech King 95 Pro case in red. Then you had to go and show me that hunter green Tower 300 that literally took my breath away. I've been in computers for over 20 years and I've built dozens of systems but I've never even sniffed, let alone used anything small form factor. So now I call on you to do a step by step build in a Tower 300, preferably in green but I'll allow you to pick the specific color.

@azena. 5 месяцев назад

I watched the TechTesseract video on this yesterday too. Thermaltake have some really awesome products there! That side ways tower case, I can totally see that being used more as a wall feature type thing. It reminds me somewhat of a fish tank and I can almost imaging some kind of vivarium style setup with that case safely integrated somehow, particularly if the cabling can be cleanly routed either through the wall or through the unit holding the feature. Also, I love that blue colour ❤

@darryljack6612 5 месяцев назад

@LucidDream101 5 месяцев назад

WOW! Thermaltake really upped their game with this. They've always been mediocre as long as I remember but this, this is impressive! Their using the thicker sheets along with complete powder coat (as apposed to just the outside). Go Thermaltake!

@devonjohnson7501 5 месяцев назад

The tower 300 is pretty cool, but you lose me as soon as I have to go through hoops to get to the rear I/O on the motherboard. I need access there without half disassembling the case.

tower 300 is town down cooling not up. The top is not exhaust, but wow really good stuff they got there. Can't wait for the Tower 900 where it can have a few expansion bays and maybe more support for more radiators for gpu & cpu cooling as well as places to hold HDDs.

@geologik7500 5 месяцев назад

why would they fight physics? If you are basing it on fan cage orientation you're likely incorrect considering they are SWA fans with swappable blade "cores" that allow you to change the airflow direction without flipping the fan mount.

@CoMoSystemsEngineer 4 месяца назад

I'm a huge fan of Thermaltake's 25th anniversary PC cases, and I've heard nothing but great feedback from my customers. As far as whether or not I'd rather have the fans included with the case, I personally prefer to add my own higher-end fans, but I believe the best strategy to appeal to all customers is to offer the chassis with the option of purchasing it with OR without the fans. Thermaltake could easily offer this customization on their website, or create a few more SKUs for their chassis with the fans included for sales on other retail PC websites.. In my estimation, this would likely boost sales for customers on the fence regarding whether to buy the case with or without fans.

@silentferret1049 5 месяцев назад

I like it when the fans are LED and matching for being included but also having the option for non-led fans might be a better choice option as well than just no fans. Normally the no fan option is because they either want LED and the included fans are not LED or there is not enough of the same fans for all the places to put them so they have to buy others and a matching problem occurs.

@DJCurry25 5 месяцев назад

@tomrockholm-timeless_morph6691 5 месяцев назад

I have a feeling case manufacturers will start offering modular motherboard trays for all their cases for all the variants of BTF type boards and the standard stuff if they catch on a bit more since everyone has their own versions of it and more will come. If they don’t then there will be someone that’ll offer a universal diy modular motherboard tray kit.

@ARocketsPocket 5 месяцев назад

The tower looks interesting but can’t imagine how practical it would be in daily life due to the io being blocked by the fans etc. a case review / build would be interesting
