Thermaltake Core V1 Mini ITX Cube Gaming Computer Case CA-1B8-00S1WN-00

I've been building PCs for about 30 years and have done lots in that time. This is without doubt the easiest Mini ITX case I've used. Cable management is excellent, there's plenty of room to manoeuvre, and airflow is very good. I didn't use the supplied fans, but replaced them with Noctua 200mm and 2x 80mm PWM fans. I have also ordered some magnetic dust filters as this case has lots of openings and as well as keeping dust at bay, it should help slightly with noise. The paint job is pretty good, there's not much in the way of sharp edges, either. The case can easily fit a full size ATX PSU, but this will eat into your cable management space in the bottom of the case. I built this as a home NAS and have managed to squeeze in 4x 3.5" drives, 2 in the supplied brackets, one in the floor panel and one to the left of the motherboard, the latter two had to have custom mountings made, but it's turned out well. With regard to cooling, I fitted a Noctua NH-C14S with the fan on top, there's just about room for this and I will probably end up changing the window panel to the left side and the perforated panel on top for the fan to draw cool air in. Overall, very impressed and really wasn't expecting to be.

Love this case, have used it on four separate builds now from low end media machines to video editing powerhouses. Plenty of space for drive, will fit two smaller SSDs together with two regular HDDs, and GPU wise I've fit 1080ti's and 2080s in these cases so they do accommodate those if required, although you'll definitely here them due to the massive amount of vents on the case. Overall I really can't recommend these little V1s enough, superb value for money.

So this is a very good case for the money - very good value. It's nice, bright, will laid out, and very easy to build, providing you lots of room for arranging your board and components, as well as lots of room for the power supply. The layout is also very roomy, so your components will run nice and cool - loads of room for heat dissipation, and very well ventilated. So why the 4 star instead of a 5 star rating? Simply because it does not fit 4 disks as advertised. I have managed to fit in 2x2.5 drives and 2x3.5 drives, but the 2.5 drives can only be secured on one side (no brackets or screw holes for the other side). The layout of the disk mounts also means you can't screw the small disks in properly from the back side of the mount, effectively only allowing you to use the front of the mount, therefore only securing 2 drives properly. You can work around this, but you have to do it yourself, by getting a bracket that fits. And that is a tight fit. Apart from this, it's a very good case for a micro server or a compact gaming PC. Also comes with all the screws you'll need to install components.

Such a fantastic little case, great for builds where space is important, and you can still have a full sized PSU and a decent GPU.

Does what it's supposed to do. Very good build quality, Lots of space to work with on the inside. Compact and neat.

I used this case to build a FreeNAS server. As I was only using two NAS drives I did not find the case limiting but if more drives were needed it may not prove ideal. However, for a general small build machine I cannot fault it. Runs very cool and plenty of room for full size PSU and cables...more room if modular PSU used. The large front fan runs practically silent and I found no problems installing everything I needed, keeping cable management tidy. Great that all the panels are interchangeable so you can have the window side wherever you want it.

Really good value case, I was really impressed. It includes a 200mm fan at the front and there's plenty of room for building.

Good solid case, but to tell you the truth, I accidentally got this But since this snugly fitted in to where I wanted it, I thought I'd keep it. Beware, try purchasing a modular PSU rather than one that isn't with this case

Muy buena caja para montar un servidor para el salon

Extrêmement satisfait de ce boitier, qui rend bien les services escomptés et de plus est très pratique par la facilité de montage/démontage des façades. bon rapport qualité prix. Je trouve le look final bien mieux que celui d'une tour et c'est ce que je cherchais. le gros ventilo sur la facade avant ne fait pas de bruit Monté avec une carte mère Itx B550I aorus, (et alimentation ATX BeQiet 700W qui a un logement bien séparé. Les plaques amovibles pour support des disques SATA (2,5 et 3,5") sont bien pratiques j'ai mis un ryzem 7 3700x qui ne pose pas de problème de hauteur avec son ventirad d'origine (reste 4 cm de marge par rapport à la face vitrée du dessus). Finalement beaucoup de place libre pour la circulation de l'air et aussi le passage des câbles. Pour l'instant j'ai une "petite" carte graphique que je compte changer pour une carte plus grande. Il y a de la place sans pb jusqu'à 255mm et même 285mm en jouant sur l'arrière. ça me suffira amplement. Que du bonheur !

まだ本格的には組み上がっていませんが マザーボード ASUS prime H610I CPU 14400 GPU B580 メモリー 64GB で組んでいます。 マザーにARGBピンヘッダーがないのでフラクタルのadjust hub Proを使用。(他のケース、メモリーでGPUなしのLinux環境では使用できました。) このケースの仕様ではCPUクーラーは68mmまでとありますが、当方thermalrightのX67という15mm厚のファンが付属している名前の通り67mmのクーラーにarcticの P12プロという25mmファンに変え、USBファンコンで試しに回しましたがサイドパネルにファンが当たるような事はありませんでした。 電源取り付けの下の底面とpcie取り付け部の上が空洞です。 サイドパネルは真ん中より上が外から見えないので、ケーブルをまとめるなら上部かな？ 進展あれば追記します。

- hohe Verarbeitungsqualität - fester Stand - Boden, beide Seitenteile sowie Oberteil können einzeln abgenommen werden (jeweils mit 2 Schrauben befestigt) Ich suchte ein Gehäuse mit bestimmten maximalen Abmessungen. Dieses Gehäuse bot den größten Platz und das beste Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Ich würde es wieder kaufen.

I've been using this great little case for a few months now. This fits exactly what I wanted and does it quite well. Pros: - easy to build in: easy to access all the areas - included 200mm intake fan is great for airflow and stays quiet (~700 RPM or so) - flexible storage options (up to 4x SSD, or 2x SSD + 2x HDD). It comes with two cages for storage so I thought I could only put 2 drives in, but you can actually double up if you're using SSDs! There are two prongs on the narrow side that hook into two of the SSD mounting holes and you only need 2 screws to hold it in place. HDDs use the larger side, of course. - separate compartment for the PSU/cables makes for a clean-looking interior (at least from top-down) Cons: - thumb screws are capped in plastic and therefore don't have the nice feel of all-metal thumb screws - front dust filter is built into the front panel, makes for a harder time cleaning it Bottom line: I really enjoy this compact mITX case! There could be some improvements on the minor details, but wasn't enough of an issue to lose a star over it.
