Overall Review: I have built a lot of computers for myself and others an I tell you, This is the best case yet. It has everything. I have found no fault with it at all . I am extremely happy with it and it is well worth the price. $30.00 rebate was nice and it arrived quickly. This is my third Thermaltake case and by far it is the best. I will keep this case till I past away. Which may be not so far far away. If you are looking for a great case don't pass this baby up.... This baby is AWSOME

Pros: The Thermaltake Level 10GT was the case I kept going back to as I was shopping for a Full Tower case to hold my bleeding edge components. It really has a ton of room and a bunch of well thought out features. Unlike most, I thought it would be bigger. However, it is just the right size. It holds the huge Phanteks cooler with room to spare. Big, cool and quiet.

Cons: The directions for assembly are sorely lacking. You have to wear magnifying glasses to read the fine print and even then it is much to simplified. I was surprised at the high volume of plastic, but it is heavy as is. The drawers that hold the SSD and HDD are brittle plastic and the spring loaded finger holds should be handled with care. There is little room for routing cables etc. behind the motherboard. This is the biggest problem area. Had I known it would be so narrow, I would have bought another case. It takes 2 of us to close and secure the side panel. It's a shame that such a great enclosure is so short sighted on cable routing room. Another 2" and the case would have been close to perfection.

Overall Review: This is a nice case. There were times when I wanted to put it back in the box and send it back for a refund, but I am a cable routing madman. As I look at the assembled rig, I smile. I can see this lasting 5 years or so. I don't move it more than 1 x per year. It is great looking. New Egg is a great place to do business. They make everything so easy.

Pros: - Spacious for just about anything to fit inside - Carry handle to lug around easily - Plenty of fans (quiet) to keep air flow moving - Unique look sets you apart from a standard box - Cable management is excellent

Cons: - When being carried and handled the case feels very solid, however certain parts just feel...cheap. I believe for a $200 computer case nothing should feel cheap. I didn't have any problems with brittle hard drive bays that other reviewers had issues with. I however, was very gentle handling them and although nothing broke they do feel incredibly cheap and plastic-y.

Overall Review: My customer REALLY wanted to use this case even though I warned him of the price and other reviewers noting brittle plastic pieces. Again, I had no issues personally but if ThermalTake did redesign or beef up the hard drive trays I think it would remove a lot of the criticism for this case.

Pros: After using and abusing my previous case for about six years, it finally came time to buy a new case. It was between this and the good old 800D. Considering how I have no water cooling and a insatiable need to stand out, I went with the level 10, and I'm quite glad I did. Never had so much room in a case before, and the cable management is great. Even though I don't personally use the hot swap feature, I do have quite a few HDDs, and the bays do help keep it all organized. The light show you can put on is quite cool as well, and you will certainly stand out from all your lan buddies if you haul this beast out. It seems sturdy enough, and it already survived falling off a table with nary a scratch, so I'm going to assume it will last me quite a while. Also, the dust covers are a godsend for me, as my roommates have two cats that just LOVE to rub up against the fan vents whenever I'm not there to chase them off.

Cons: Probably the only cons I have are with the directions, and the lack of SATA cables. The cables weren't to much of a problem for me, but for those who don't have extras lying about, not having them can be a bummer. Considering they cost a bit, I guess its probably good they didn't add them to keep the price down, but I digress. As for the directions, they really don't go into enough detail on the smaller features that the case comes with, like finding the dust filters or where you can install extra fans. You can call me an idiot for this, but it took me a bit to figure out how to get power to the HDD slots, as the cable end was shoved waaaaay up in the drive bays, and the directions offer no help in that area. Also, the USB 3.0 cables have to be plugged in to the back of your motherboard, so if anything it just acts as an extension for the ports. Not nearly as useful as they should be.

Overall Review: A lot of people seem to be complaining about the lights going back to blue after a restart and the fans defaulting to low. Honestly, if people are going to look at that as a major design flaw. All you have to do is push a button. A button that is almost right next to the power button. Also, if you have not built a case before, it can be a bit daunting to hook everything up, so keep that in mind if its your first time, or you haven't built from scratch in quite a while.

Pros: *Tons of room, high attention to detail, cable management is a breeze! *Very high build quality nothing rattles shakes or is loose, some people may whine about the plastic HDD cage, but it is stout and actually seems to fit better than my previous case with metal cage. *My previous case a CM690 was a mess despite my best efforts to clean up the cables, Thermaltake has made it easy to the point that you see at most 2" of cable for any device. *Fans are also very very quiet (I didn't think they where working at first) and move alot of air, cooler and quieter than last case. *Colorshift fans are a cool little piece of bling. They feature three colors and two fancy patterns that use all three colors, as well as two speeds controlled by buttons on the case. *Hard drives are mounted to rubber bushings with shouldered screws that are included very trick. *Lock is cheesy but nice deterent I have some nice components that I would rather not lose. *Lots of

Cons: *NITPICKS* *Huge, giant, enpourmous!!! I had no idea when I ordered this thing how big it was, so if you have never had a full tower before be aware it is big. *Instructions where located inside the case when I received it, wouldn't have been a big deal, but the release to open the side is hidden on the bottom. *Cannot set a default color on the colorshift fans, always start up blue. *Window could be bigger. *PSU did not fit perfectly had to push on it top line up screw holes.

Overall Review: I am a big fan of this thing, it is not very tooless. It only has tooless holders for one side of the 5.25 slots, not a big deal to me though as I prefer the security of screws anyway. Quick swap hard drive is not especially useful but works well well and is kind of neat, however the plugs do not allow for locking SATA cables (they will plug in just not lock.)

Pros: Update on my earlier posting ref "Problems lurking". I ran the comparison with other case and problem still there. Returned MB to store and reinstalled in Level 10 GT case and everything was fine. It was a faulty MB. Case is working great, install was fast thanks to the roomy case. Don't think twice, this is the case to get!

Cons: Absolutely none!

Overall Review: Truly will be my last case since this baby is just fabulous to look at, work around, and very low temps. And yes its heavy but that's what the handle is for.

Pros: overall the case is a beast, its large be prepared for that. the design is attractive (to me) and the air flow seems fairly well laid out with removable screens for dusting.

Cons: The case is not super well made. The "handle" on the side was basically removed when i recieved it and never has sat fush on the machine. I could live with this as i wasnt getting it for a show piece. The feet are attached by tabs (one broke after a few weeks) again, I could manage. The drive bays broke (2 of the 5) almost immediately. Not through mishandling, just not well designed. The ENTIRE front USB strip is USELESS, the thing FELL APART yes, fell apart. No joke, the USB pieces literally crumbled away within a few uses, it just came apart when i removed the usb cable. NOW, maybe I just got the real abused one from the factory, or maybe it had some major defects. But without replacement, and I am NOT going to buy another, I paid substantially for this one about a year ago, all I have to go by is this ones experience.

Overall Review: Given all that, I would Not recommend this product to another.

Pros: -The door and door fan are just amazing. Why has nobody thought of that before? -Despite the plastic appearance, the handle is folded steel, attached directly to the steel frame by four screws. -All three intakes (including PSU intake) are filtered. -USB 3.0 are now using the motherboard header, instead of the extension cables, as other user's have requested. -Cable management is a breeze. -Black interior -All of the header cables are black, so they look good inside of the case. -One MOLEX connection powers all three of the large case fans, which reduces cable clutter. -One SATA power connection powers all five HDDs, reducing cable clutter. -Standard motherboard standoffs are already in place

Cons: -PRICE (but you knew that already) -HDD mounting screws are a hassle. Standard HDDs use a different screw than SSDs do when mounting them to the HDD tray. The HDD screws are especially annoying because of the rubber piece. -The back wall is a pain to put on. -The top and front red stripes do not light up like in the original Level 10, and modding them to light up will not be easy, especially the front one. -The 5.25" bay toolless system isn't very strong. I have one of the plastic 5.25" drawers, and pulling on the drawer pulled the whole thing out. Coolermaster's HAF-series 5.25" toolless system was able to hold it in while still opening the drawer -In my particular case, it is impossible to remove the key from the HDD lock while it is in the unlock position. Not too much of a problem, because I don't plan on leaving the HDD bays unlocked. -In my particular case, the top fan is loud for about 2 minutes until it sounds normal, every time the computer is turned on.

Overall Review: I had the case empty for two days (to explore and experiment with) before I moved all of the computer internals into it 3 days ago. As mentioned previously, the handle is a sturdy steel. The plastic casing on the handle is a pain to get off and I almost broke the red plastic piece in the process. I switched from a Coolermaster HAF 932 to this, and I am happy with the change.
