Hey, I'm building a new gaming rig : p8z68-v pro, intel 2500k, 8g ram 1600, 570gtx, 850w psu, etc...
I've been looking at alot of good cases and I want one that will last me a while, I was wondering if anyone tried the
Thermaltake 10GT and if its too expensive or should I get something else.

Recommandations are more than welcome, thx!

More about : case thermaltake level 10gt worth
The Thermaltake Level 10 GT is a good case if you need e-peen. Personally though, if I were spending that much then I'd straight away opt for the Silverstone Fortress FT02.
www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163161
Its arguably the best premium case available in the market as of this date.

Level 10 GT is a very custom design. In terms of that, you are not going to get any comparative models. You need to look into other custom models only. Such as -

Lian-Li PC 888

If you look carefully you will see that ive even slightly modded my FT02, have a look at the BlueRay drive at the bottom of the 5.25" slots. When i put the original Blue Ray drive in there it was a different colour black to the rest of the case and i didnt like it, so i took the FT02 cases original drive blanking plate which is lovely anodised aluminium and with my handy dremel i grafted it onto the front of the Blue Ray drive.

I personally am a huge fan of Lian Li cases... amazing quality and you can get a nice one for about half the price of the 10GT.
And then Corsair has some REALLY nice cases.

I can almost guarantee that they would function a whole lot better than the 10GT, although I've never owned a $200+ case, so I really can't say that for sure. If you take a look inside, though, it's OBVIOUS that they've been designed really, really well and are an extremely high quality case. Just a suggestion.

thanks for all the feedback guys, I think I'll buy a cheaper case than the 10gt and add an ssd instead.
I've narrowed my choice to those 3 cases, tell me what you guys think!

About Lian Li I know they are high quality cases but they all look too plain for my taste,
thanks

Whyo much hate for Thermaltake cases? I think its more of a design preference than anything. The Level 10 GT is more of a edgy design than a sleek smooth design. But the argument can also be made that its not just a rectangular box like every other case as well.
Thermaltake quality on recent case designs have gotten alot better.

Dont get me wrong I love the Thermaltake lvl10gt but I'ts just too expensive, I'd rather get another high end case with an ssd then paying full price for a lvl 10 gt
I'm still not sure which case I'll get anyway I might end up getting the Thermaltake 10gt lol
Right now its between the Antec DF-85 and the HAF X RC-42

I understand. I just hate to see when people flock in attacking something different and suggesting a design thats also good but not really innovative.... Its all in ones choice of style tbh. If you end up with the Level 10 GT you would probably like it.... I know I do. but then again take a good hard look at the style to ensure its the look your going for. being the other cases your looking at I would say you like the edgy not just a box or a smoothed box design which is cool dont get me wrong..... But I switched my HAF for a level 10 GT for a reason

I really think need to look at the styling more than anything tbh.
also i wrote a review on it here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?2724...
I just liked cable management more than anything the case has a huge cutout for backplate/cooler installs..... internal USB 3.0 header, plenty of space behind the mobo tray for cable routing.... plus I just flat out like the styling..... at first it was different but once I looked at it for a minute or 2 I loved the unique design cues it has.... and the usability is a huge plus.

Any case has good cable management as long as you have a dremel/drill and an eye for planning cable routes, I never consider cable management as a selling point because if its needed, I make it happen,
I have actually started sketching plans for a GT mod, but I have to finish my psycho rider first and sell that
**Edit, after some surfing, its actually the aluminium level10 I want to hack up
the G10 is plastic

I hear ya there man.... but then again many dont really wanna hack up their case or lack the necessary tools/skills to do so.... I believe thats where the marketing points to on the cable management side.

£25 quid case Uther? Check third siglink :-)
Gf's case was two for £15 hehe, added 2x80mms and 2x120s in the side panel
25 is just blowout budget hehe
I Know how you mean Punx, it just seems daft to me people will pay extra for cable management when a couple of drillholes is all they really need :-p
I look at cases and see what they can be, not what they are,
Also willing to help out anyone near enough to where I live if they're not confident enough hehe
