Thermaltake is one of my personal favorite case makers, I’ve owned a few of their products in my time, but this Level 10 is exceptional. Announced at CeBit in March, the Level 10 was designed with the help of BMW DesignWorks, and it is amazing. MaximumPC got one first, but they were kind enough so share some unboxing pictures with the world.
This case looks like nothing else I’ve ever seen. The components hang out the side of the case, but they’re all enclosed in their own separate area. The left side contains the motherboard, and then each self-contained and cooled compartment holds a different item. The case has six hot-swappable SATA bays, room for three optical drives, and a enclosed and cooled compartment in the top rear for the power supply.
The Level 10 will be available in mid-October for $700. You can see the official product page here. I have to admit though, I think they should have called it the Level 11.
I’ve been waiting for this since it was featured on T3 (or Stuff I don’t remember which)..
$700 huh.. Hopefully it is a worldwide release..
It looked better in march when it was just a concept rendering. Pretty much the same exept shiny. And for $700 I expect a little shine.
That looks awesome. And not just visually, but it seems like it would keep things cooler with their own compartments, and just easier to manage.
Love it, but not the price. Doesn’t look like it would be hard to build though. Use plexi and you got a uber cheap replica.
isnt the form factor too big occupying lot of space? The minew cases are smaller and more compact.
Yea but your using it for a performance PC. Not just a media PC. Media PC’s can afford to be small and compact. Where as the gaming PC’s are just getting bigger.
Plus it has two key locks, not just one. Wow!
