Thermaltake's Booth

Thermaltake has been going the e-sports angle for a while now and its booth at Computex reflected this, with teams of gamers going up against each other.

We have seen Thermaltake's Level 10 chassis for a couple of years now but this is the GT version. We're also seeing quite a few distinctive mods of this Level 10 GT model. This version is obviously inspired by NVIDIA. There's even a headtset holder, something that we don't remember seeing on the original.

This is the Snow Edition Level 10 GT chassis.

The Overseer RX-I has an unique top-loading HDD mounting system. The PSU meanwhile is located at the bottom for easier installation. Long graphics cards up to 12.5 inches are supported.

This HDD docking station allows one to swap your HDD without opening up your chassis and fiddling with screws or what not.

This Spacecraft VF-I has an aluminum bezel to create that unique look preferred by gamers. USB 3.0 connectors are built-in and one can install up to seven fans inside. It supports most AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards up to 12.5 inches. High-end liquid cooling solutions are also supported.

This is one extreme CPU cooler. The Frio Extreme has two 140mm PWM fans with speeds between 1200 and 1800RPM. It supports all existing AMD and Intel processors but we recommend that you check that your rig has sufficient clearance for this huge cooler.

Not everyone needs such a powerful PSU but if you do, Thermaltake's modular Toughpower XT is certified for 80 PLUS Gold and comes with seven years warranty and support. For enthusiasts and gamers, the fact that it's ready for multiple graphics cards supporting up to 3-way SLI and CrossFireX is important.

For the mainstream user, Thermaltake's Smart series is sufficient. This M550W comes with modular cable management and provides up to a maximum of 650W of output. It has two 6-pin PCIe connectors and one 8-pin PCIe connector so it's not that suitable for those with more than one GPU.
