The new Thermaltake Tower 500 is out and it's all about exploring the vertical and some component breathing room. Let's take it for an ASMR spin with some latest hardware and see how vertical we get.

The first part of this video makes for a surprisingly excellent learning supplement. There are a lot of instructional videos that don't get as up-close-and-personal as this, and so it's very easy to miss so many of the little steps involved (such as pealing the peal on the thermal pad for the NVMe heat sink).

The only thing I wish it had is a USB C front port besides that it's perfect and so big it actually holds my home theater receiver on top of it and an additional 27" monitor for side content next to my 65" oled which is what's actually above my desk (the pc sits on the ground next to it and kinda "extends" my desk.

Great video, and the video & sound quality is always awesome. I bought the tower 100, looks great. Probably my only gripe with the 100, is the limited option for liquid cooling on the cpu - a 120/140mm set up is the only option. Air cooling isn't an issue.... all in all the tower series of cases seems like a solid option for great looking builds. I'm considering switching to the 500....🤔

@random_stuff_channel 8 ай бұрын

If you want a small PC case of a similar size to the Tower 100, consider the Tower 200. It can fit an RTX 4090, and up to a 280mm aio, with a max of 4 fans. It's a pretty cool compact PC case.

This case solves my problem with the Level 20 HT that I have. Although my build is completely custom cooled, the Level 20 HT does not have very good options for fan and radiator placement. Matter of fact, it kind of sucks if I'm completely honest. I thought about the Tower 900, but it's just too big, and the Tower 100 is WAY too small.

@-xGR4VEx- 2 жыл бұрын

PSA: You only get 1 bracket for mounting fans or radiators (if that wasn't obvious to you already.) You can get another one, but I had to get in contact with Thermaltake and requested that they send me a spare set so that I can mount fans on both sides. $15 for the spare bracket, and $5 for shipping. They don't currently have any in stock, so I'm on a waiting list. Keep that in mind, as well. So if you want to do the same thing, expect to pay around $200 for the case instead of $180. If you want to have the front panel screen along with it, add another $100 to that.

@Weezedog 2 жыл бұрын

I had a Tower 100, but the problem with these cases is that GPU orientation doesn’t work for most modern GPU heat pipe orientation. It places the evaporator (hot gpu die) above the condenser (cooler heatsink mass). This causes the heat pipes to fight gravity, and lose. My 3070 GPU would thermal throttle, and just flipping the Tower 100 on it’s side would drop GPU temps by 20C+ in only a few seconds.

That's weird my GPU and CPU which both uses heat pipes doesn't have this issue. I also run the tower 100.

@@cowbee8865 Both the ASUS TUF and STRIX suffer from high GPU temps when mounted like this. Recommend checking GPU-Z sensor tab and looking at hotspot and overall temp under full load like AIDA64 or furmark, then turn the case on its side so the card is horizontal and see if you get a large drop.
