5 out of 5 eggsStorage slot?

Pros: First of all, there's a ton of space. Because it's completely ventilated allowing for better cooling. Running now with 2 470's I'm glad I have all the space I can get. I installed 2 - 120 mm fans on the bottom of the case, with 2 white cold cathode sound activated light bars, works well with this case.

Cons: Wish there was less dust. I clean mine out every 3 months.

Other Thoughts: The 'storage slot' on top wasn't designed for storage for petty necessities or to be opened and closed very often, it was designed to house a water cooling system.

5 out of 5 eggsrebate correction

Pros: see other thoughts

Cons: see other thoughts

Other Thoughts: My bad.... I need to correct my last review because I neglected to see the link on the website to get my rebate back... they still could have put the rebate paper in the package... well I feel dumb and am now giving the case a score of 5 eggs because that is what I would have given it had I known about the rebate link.

4 out of 5 eggsBig Mother - NO REBATE?

Pros: Very strong, solid metal really gives me peace of mind that there will not be any stripping or denting issues. +1 egg

Slide-out motherboard tray really makes mobo installation a breeze. +1 egg

Tons of space to put anything I can think of in here! But still small enough to allow all my power/data cords to connect to their assigned locations on the mobo. +1 egg

Tons of cable management "goodies" included so I don't have to go out and buy a bunch of zip ties and screws. +1 egg

Plenty of fans are included to keep everything inside cool and the fans are huge too! +1 egg

Tool-free options on the drive bays and PCI slots are very useful and make installation even easier. +1 egg

Cons: Plastic rails for the top "extra storage space" are very hard to slide back and forth. You have to affix one foot on the back end of the chassis, get a really good grip on.. well.. whatever part of the top you can, and, YANK! Poof. Open. -1 egg for too much friction. Put some ball bearings in there for goodness sake!

And now WHAT THE HECK! Where is my rebate info!!!??? $30 mail in rebate my foot! -1 egg for that. Now I have to do some digging around to see who has my rebate info!

Directions that came with the case are not written very well and don't really explain how to install certain things.

That's why the rating is 4/5 egg

Other Thoughts: This is my first full size tower and it is gigantic compared to my mid-size case. It took me a while to figure everything out just because there was so much extra that came with the case and it is so heavy and large that I couldn't very well set it on my lap to work out everything.

When I came to pick up my case at the UPS store I was shocked to see how poorly the package was handled(dents in one side of the box, and bottom of box was OPEN) and was afraid of what I might see when I opened the parcel... Thankfully only one piece in the back/bottom of the case was broken and not badly enough to RMA back... I read other reviews with this same problem so this must be a regular issue. Hopefully Thermaltake will figure out this flaw and fix it... Or I could start using fedex instead of UPS.

Overall, this is a very nice quality case although a few minor tweaks here and there would make it almost perfect.

4 out of 5 eggsDecent Case

Pros: Plenty of space, internal components fit very well, lots of extra screws if you lose a couple

Cons: case sides just barely don't center over the holes to screw them back on, takes a fair amount of effort to reattach case sides (and lots of dropping of tiny screws)

Other Thoughts: Aside from the hassle replacing the case sides, perfect.

5 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Great air flow, great location of the inputs as well. This case is great for monster rigs. Not ideal for someone who doesn't need the extra room. I run cross fire and I even added a VGA fan. I still have plenty of room.

Cons: There are a few minor details that bug me. The legs are a bit flimsy, but if you don't move it around its not a problem. Also the "thumb screws" on the back panel require a screw driver. Unless you have phillips head nails? But other than that its perfect.

Other Thoughts: Great for gaming monsters!

5 out of 5 eggsA monster

Pros: -Very large full tower
-free shipping
-plenty of drive bays and room for cable management
-solid, heavy and well built.
-fast shipping from New Egg as always
-quality product from my favorite heatsink/fan manufacture.

Cons: A very small piece of plastic was broken off of the top-back of the case, though given how heavy and large this beast is, it'd be very surprising for it all to be in tact. Instead of going through a RMA process I simply removed the piece from the case and it looks great now.

The plastic top-front panel that "clicks" open to show the power button, front audio, sata, usb, etc. feels a bit flimsy and cheap compared to the rest of the case, yet it still managed to survive the shipping.

Other Thoughts: You can read how everyone says how large this thing is, look at the dimensions in the specifications tab, and consider it all you like, but when the box for this thing comes into your home you'll realize just how massive it is.

5 out of 5 eggsFantastic buy

Pros: Wow what a case ...I did not have any of the troubles found in other reviews.. My UPS guy is the best. I even forewarned him of this beast. Just what I needed for my Tyan G34 S8230GM4NR . Dual 6128 Optron setup.

Cons: None at all.....l this case is beautiful....well pleased!

Other Thoughts: My Shitzu thinks it is his new dog house. Newegg rocks, I wish they would have had this board in stock. I bought elseware and they are still preparing my order. All else is here and now I wait.

5 out of 5 eggsBig tower

Pros: This thing is huge! It's like putting a computer system in a VW bug... Lots of room!

Cons: Hinge was broke on front door when received, but Thermaltake is sent a new one!

Other Thoughts: The top sliding door should be hinged to go up not backwards towards the wall... ya got to keep it about half a foot from the wall to open it.
