Most Favorable Review

great case

Thermaltake Level 20 XT E-ATX Extreme LCS Capable Split Level Modular Gaming Cube Case CA-1L1-00F1WN-00
Thermaltake Level 20 XT E-ATX Extreme LCS Capable Split Level Modular Gaming Cube Case CA-1L1-00F1WN-00

Pros: plenty of room for extended atx motherboard great alternative to the caselabs S8 like in one of the videos for Linuse tech tips

Cons: came with one fan.... would have been nice to come with fans even without the rgb

Overall Review: i know this is the non-RGB case but it would have been nice to have the option to come with RGB fans and controller like in the photo for an additional cost OR come with NON-RGB fans included in the current price?
