OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Thermaltake presents a compact yet powerful case armed with extreme-venting capability and advanced features that make it an unprecedented mobile gaming powerhouse. The Thermaltake LANBOX Lite VF6000BWS comes with a 5.25" and a 3.5" external drive bay, as well as two 3.5" internal drive bays. But what sets it apart is the 7" external drive bay for the express use of an integrated monitor that could be converted to a second 5.25" drive bay if needed.

Putting this system together is a breeze. Everything from the motherboard tray to the external and internal drive bay cages is removable with a twist of the thumb screws for easy installation. Your system will be kept cool thanks to the aerodynamically-designed ventilation holes, a 90mm blue LED front fan and two 60mm rear fans.

The LANBOX Lite VF6000BWS enables the use of most high-end CPUs, powerful graphic cards and even a full-size power supply. With all this, what more could you ask for? How about the strength and durability of steel to protect your investment? This could indeed be the total package that'll allow you to kick some serious LAN!

Good Small Case

white Reviewed By: Cameron on 5/9/2007
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This box WILL fit a x8800gtx *read other thoughts. Very Quiet.

I recommend replacing stock heatsync with a wide one. You have about 100mm of clearance off the top of the mobo for a heatsync.

Everything is thumbscrews (except for the parts that you want screws). Expansion slots use screws (THANK YOU). I hate those cheap clips that never work. You can pretty much take apart the entire case without a screw driver, except for the hard drive cage, and the PSU mounts.
Cons: Not many places to hide cables. Cables on front to connect to mobo are quite long.

12" cathodes wont really fit anywhere in this case with all the cables. I recommend smaller ones, maybe 8".

Top panel has a lot of vent holes, but half of them are covered by metal. I am thinking about cutting a hole in the PSU mount to install another 60mm fan blowing up out the top.

Hard drive cage conflicts with long cards. I wish they moved it over an inch or two, but oh well. I improvised (read below).
Other Thoughts: I fit both my hard drives in the cage, and used an x8800gtx. Tips: Mount the hard drives backwards (so only 2 screws per drive in the middle). Then slide the drive cage onto only 2 brackets, and drill a new hole for the screw. Put some foam under the other end. I tried every other combination and this is the only one that works

After doing that, the drive cage doesn't vibrate, and holds both my drives fine.

Be sure to put the cd drive bays in before putting the x8800gtx card in, otherwise you wont be able to get it in.

Also, mobo cables can be crammed to the side of the mobo, and taped or tied into place. Then they are completely out of sight.

definitely go modular. With modular cables I have 4 cables plugged in and the 24 pin power cable, and its already overflowing the top part of my case. These wires can be stuffed above the cd drives though to remain out of sight for the most part.

Get a third 60mm fan for the back. (30 degrees celcius dif without the fans running)

Rock Solid and Sleek

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This is a rock solid case that's easy to work on and almost completely tooless except for the need of a Phillips for mounting harddrives, DVD drives, etc. Plenty of room for components, runs quiet and looks sleek. Front bay covers work great with my DVD drive and look stealthy, USB ports and audio in front side are convenient, and
Cons: Some might find this a tad on the big side for M-ATX, but other then the MB, it fits almost all other standard sized components.
Other Thoughts: Running an AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+(65W), MB is ASUS M2NPV-VM M-ATX, VideoCard is ASUS EN8600 GT (fanless), 2 GB RAM, 1 250GB HDD mounted in the side bracket (pulled out the unused 2 drive mount to improve airflow), Lite-On 20X DVD burner, and PSU is Ultra XVS 500W which is a full size PSU with 120mm fan and Modular Cables. Everything runs quiet, cool and minimal wattage. Will upgrade HDD to a Raptor shortly.

Just clearing things up

Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Please see other review previous posted....this is just an update to that one....
Cons: Please see other review previous posted....this is just an update to that one....
Other Thoughts: I almost forgot on my other review, the front intake fan is 92mm so you can fit the more popular fans in this thing. However, with the HD cage installed you will not be able to fit the fatter 92x92x38 fan in this thing. I chose a Delta 102cfm 92x92x25. Also there is plenty of room for 60x60x38 fans in the rear depending on your heatsink and motherboard config. I chose the Delta 60x60x38 50cfm fans for the exhaust. Now if you do use a larger 2 slotted card I have to recommend the NZXT IU01 for the USB headers; it works great and allows you to place the USB where ever you want with this case. There is a small amount of space on the rear of the case for modding if you want to add rear mounted fan controllers; I personally chose the Sunbeam FC PCI and removed the mounting plate and drilled the holes to mount in the rear else where and it works great and looks like it belongs. Have fun with this case.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Small yet not cramped.
Fits a fullsize 11-12" videocard (with 3.5" bays removed).
Good airflow.
Nice price.
Cons: I really can't think of anything. I guess some would complain that you have to pull the internal 3.5" bay out to fit a fullsize video card...but this is a Micro ATX case so give me a break, plus that still leaves you with 2x 5.25" and 1x 3.5" bays...and plenty of room to fabricate something else if you need additional storage.

Cable management "could" be a little tough for some, I would recommend a modular PSU.
Other Thoughts: I currently am running the following:
CPU: i7 920 D0 @ 3.8GHz, stk vcore
Mobo: EVGA 1366 Intel X58 SLI/CF
Ram: 3x2GB OCZ 1600MHz
Video: 2x ATI 5870 Crossfire <----
HDD1: 120GB OCZ Vertex SSD
HDD2: 500GB Western Digital
Optical: Sony BluRay
PSU: Silverstone 1KW

CPU temps never exceed 70c load, and only hit that high when running Prime95. Gaming temps well under 60c.
Videocards never exceed 70c under Vantage.

Needless to say, the airflow in this case is pretty decent ro handle this kind of hardware with the stock cooling solutions. These temperatures are virtually the same as they were in my Antec 1200 with 6x 120mm fans.

For those complaining about difficulty putting this together...I'm curious as to how massive your hands are. I have this case stuffed and it took me less than 30 minutes to fully assemble. Honestly, I thought this was easier to deal with than my Antec 1200...call me crazy.

In conclusion, I was very pleasantly surprised with this product and couldn't
