Pros: - Very nice building process, nothing in the way
- Comes with 4 drive bays, which is nice
- A lot of space for custom Water cooling loop
- Cable management is very nice
- Easily manipulable to put into many different positions, vertical, horizontal, wall-mounted, etc.

Cons: - PCI Extender was DOA, either toss it or get yourself an aftermarket one.

Other Thoughts: - The PCI extender is a bummer, but i won't take points off, because the rest of the case is so nice.

Pros: Eye candy! This is GORGEOUS! I installed the 480MM radiator, (4) 120MM blue fans, running a cpu AND GPU water block! This looks incredible! I also used the hard PETG tubing. Custom loop looks so crazy futuristic! The PCI Extender riser cable has worked for me so far!! :) I bought another one, but it's grey, not black, so I tried the one you get with the case, and it works great! Hope it continues to work well, since my custom hard tubing loop will be a pain to drain, just so I can uninstall the video card, and THEN replace the cable.... so... word of advice, might as well paint the grey cable black , or wrap it in electrical tape or something.... and USE IT... mine is sitting in my desk til the one that came with the case breaks.

Cons: Not free

Other Thoughts: I would, and will buy many more of these in the future. I run a computer shop, this is on my desk as my business computer, and all my customers can see this, and it shows off my skills as a computer builder!! (I'd like to see the 12 year old neighbor boy build this!!!)

Pros: They shipped it to me in 1 day and I was surprised by the service.
This is by far the most customizable case ever made. It has tonnes and tonnes of features which you can see when you get one yourself. Trust me I don't regret even a penny I used to buy this case. I was always confused with what to buy specially between Corsair 760T and 780T but when they made this case I immediately thought of getting this. Even if you dont want to custom loop this case will serve you well. The build Quality of each and every individual part in this case is amazing specially the metal rods for the glass its very heavy and build in high quality. The cable management is amazing on this case. One of the best feature on this case is that you can wall mount it with any regular TV wall mount bracket. MOST IMPORTANT!!! If you choose a 1000W or higher PSU it's going to hide your cable management CUT POCKETS. PLEASE NOTE. Its a bit difficult to put the cable through the pockets. Another thing......Just make sure this box has a cardboard color square think glass. Don't Break that. I first thought its useless cz it looked like Cardboard but later when I couldnt find the glass I realize it was covered with a protective cardboard cover on it. Trust me dont think twice about buying this product. its worth you 135$.

Cons: I personally wish they did have a white, red, blue case instead of terrible choice of light green.
The Pcie extender is very extremely poor.(Dead on Arrival) Tired so much but ended up failing n wasting my time. Get yourself a new one most likely cz this wont work well.
I wish they supported All in One Liquid cooling Radiators. Thermaltake wants you to buy their own Custom watercooling loop and all their products with this Case. They didnt support the All in One Radiators mount but that I solved using it's that L shaped thing you take off to screw your gpu in that slot. Also the instruction manual does briefly tell you how things fit into place but it's no problem for people who have already built a couple of PC before.

Other Thoughts: I Recommend this product. Very customizable case for the price you pay. I totally love it.
I wish they had more color options in choosing this case. Long story short buy it and then see it yourself Its pretty good ... the case and it's features. You'll like it. I take 2 eggs away for having a terrible dead pcie extension & no support for AIO cooler which should be there from the beginning.

Core P5 AIO Bracket|

Pros: It's sturdy, good quality, nice looking

Cons: The graphic card riser never worked. I am currently looking to order a good quality one. You may want to save yourself some time by ordering a separate rise with the case, as it seems a very common problem.
I used a corsair h100i GTX hyro cooler. The distance from the mount location to the cpu was so much that the hoses of the hydro cooler barely made it there. I finally managed to install it but I worried that it might cause too much tension on the board!

Manufacturer Response:

As for your AIO cooler, a bracket for the Core P5 will be available soon to mount the radiator closer to the motherboard.

Core P5 AIO Bracket|

Pros: - easy to work with, open design lends simplicity to organizing components
- orthogonal mounting of GPU is particularly attractive
- lots of space for components both in view and on the rear (out of view)
- nice wire routing options & grommets

Cons: - poor mounting options for 2.5" (SSD) drives, wastes a lot of space
- hard to read instructions, very small booklet

Other Thoughts: As an "open air" chassis this case lends itself to cooling and my PC is noticeably more quiet. I have wall mounted the case PC to save more desk & floor space and prominently display the computer. I look forward to upgrading this PC as the P5 can easily accommodate more powerful hardware than I currently have.

It would be great if there was an option to upgrade to tempered glass. I realize the economics of including this in the base case is probably prohibitive, but it would be a good add-on.

Pros: - Beautiful
- Great for custom water loops
- Vertical, horizontal, or wall mounted
- Customizable

Cons: - The PCI extender cable for vertical GPU mounting is garbage.
- NO 3.5" front bays. That means no DVD drives, no front bay reservoirs.
- Not good for people who need to change their drives or cable management often.
- Actually, it's generally not good for anyone who needs to make changes to their hardware frequently.
- The hard drive bracket in the back needs to be removed in order to push cables, but it feels like it's not designed to do so.
- The bolts holding in the feet could have been designed better.

Other Thoughts: Great case if you only need to set up your PC once.

Set it and forget it.

Pros: The case is a good choice if you are using water-cooling components.

Cons: The PCI-e riser is absolutely garbage. It works maybe 2/25 tries.

Other Thoughts: Not until they fix this issue with the cable.

Pros: -Wall mountable ++
-Great build quality
-Lots of room
-Cable management

Cons: -Wouldn't recommend so much if you didn't have the intention of liquid cooling
-Pcie riser cable is complete junk, and i'm not the only one here that thinks so. Mine completely stopped functioning after a day. I recommend buying a better one.
-No optical drive

Other Thoughts: Pretty heavy, not necessarily a bad thing. Just keep in mind where and how you mount if you mount on the wall.
i subtracted 2 eggs off the rating due to the pcie riser cable. It seems some of us who bought the core p5 had faulty cables and couldn't mount our video cards vertically. At least it's easily replaceable. Other than that, i'm loving this case!

Pros: This case is pretty great, especially if you are looking to liquid cool your system. It has an excellent space for up to a 480mm radiator, a mount for your pump/reservoir, and a really neat means to show off your graphics card. The open air nature allows for easy access to the front by merely removing the Plexiglas window, and the back is just as easily accessible. Cable management is a dream with this case.
-The case can stand up on legs, be laid flat on its back, or be mounted on the wall, which is hella cool.

Cons: -Only space for 4 storage drives. Three in the back, one in the front. If you like to connect multiple dives in RAID or just have several in general, this might not be for you.
-It's pretty heavy, especially when the liquid cooling is installed.
-It looks incredibly bare without custom liquid cooling.
-There is not significant airflow directly on the motherboard. If you have a board that gets hot and you don't have a custom cooling solution to solve it, this case may not be for you.

Other Thoughts: I really like this case. It's been fantastic so far. It pairs well with Thermaltake Pacific Cooling components too.
It just looks sexy in general. I like the easy access it provides.

Pros: Great looking case, cable management is great, easy to move around when working on, vertical feet are very stable

Cons: Pcie riser cable is garbage. Worked on and off with every reboot until about 4 hours later when it stopped all together. Luckily I was air testing and haven't done my water loop yet so I was able to attach the GPU directly to the board and all works now. This isn't the setup I wanted however and not as advertised. If you buy this case I would avoid using this cable all together as there are many reports online of it killing mobos and GPUs. Very disappointed in thermal take as I am used to a higher quality from them.

Lost time and disappointment makes this 3 start.

Other Thoughts: Sherry metal is thin and buckles under the weight of all of the attached equipment if the back isn't on and screwed down. This just makes it a pain to align the scree holes in the rear but once together the case is solid.
