Thermaltake Goes 200mm for Fans, 17mm for Coolers

2018-01-12
hey everyone we're at CES 2018 at the thermaltake suite now looking at a couple of new cases and some new cooling products that's kind of what they do so the first thing I want to point out is that we'll be talking about a two hundred millimeter fan it's becoming more of a trend it's kind of like the industry is is regressing back to two hundred millimeter fans that are popular ages ago but we're gonna start with the view 37 which is this case here I actually have two side panels on here does not come with two of them they are what their own take calls panoramic panels they've had them on previous cases it's basically the top in the side and one it's an acrylic panel and then the front of the case is also an acrylic panel before that this video is brought to you by EVGA and the X 299 dark motherboard for the Intel high-end desktop CPUs the X 299 dark is one of the only motherboards on the market with proper vrm cooling we've tested this and found significant performance increase over those without active cooling on the BRM and you can learn more about the X tonight on dark at the link in the description below so for this version of the the build here it's got two hundreds in their stock this case will come with three 140 millimeter fans and then either 110 dollars or 140 dollars at 110 dollars it's three 140 millimeter fans single color blue LED at the higher price point it's three 140 millimeter fans RGB they are the reigning fans from Thermaltake so you're all familiar with those at this point and they will probably come with the controller that those ring fans typically come with in terms of K specs it does not have the crossbar here that you normally have the structural crossbar so instead you got the what they call again panoramic view features include a vertical GPU it's a bit close to the acrylic like we've said in the past you would want to use an open-loop block on your GPU to get full advantage of any kind of vertical mount but they do have one there I don't know if it will come with a riser cable that's TBD as is pretty much everything on this case specs may change but and we don't really state either so yeah there's a small stand for vertical GPU mount you can fit all the open-loop stuff reservoir full-size all of that and then they even have a vertical side mounted radiator that's pushing air that way and out that side of the case is the steel panel that has a mesh on the opposing side so the error actually can escape which is something we talked about with the animatics a beret as well for the front panel now with this configuration 200 million fans they are mounted on the outside of the chassis and it's also got a thin mesh on the sides you may find that familiar to the age 500 feet one could reasonably assume that you would encounter some of the same challenges that we found with the aged 500p in that situation the 140s I am fairly certain you would be able to mount on the inside if you did not have a vertical radiator there so if you reconfigure this build without the vertical radiator and fans you'd probably have the 140s on the inside in which case some of the concern is alleviated but you do still have obviously a piece of acrylic in the front of the case so this is the view 37 there's also a view 32 we'll be looking at momentarily and then for the fans so we have only get rid of this so the fans the two hundreds that are in here are kind of still in prototype mode but we've got one here this is a ring plus 20 fan four centimeters obviously still prototyped it's got two lighting zones which you can kind of see on the case behind me when the light rotates around the rain so two lighting zones I think it has something like sixteen LEDs in there total or eighteen somewhere in that range no price yet no release date not much information on the specs but they're looking at making them there's been also a new engine cooler the engine 27 we looked at previously or maybe 37 here's the 27 so now there's a smaller version of the engine 17 the number standing for the millimeters in height so it's 17 millimeters tall pretty damn tiny you would put this on a very low TDP system obviously it's not gonna cool a whole lot of it's not going to dissipate a ton of heat but it's also not Mensing you put it in something like a small form-factor box that has zero height clearance except for maybe 20 millimeters so they're looking at doing one of those no price on that yet either we'll move over to the view 91 briefly and then I get to some of the cheaper cases so the two things to point out here there's a view 91 which we'll get to the view 71 we reviewed this previously and found that it performed actually pretty well for two fans basically I mean it it kind of surprised us 4gb performance with the original so do you want the only change here is the color of the chassis said of black it's the titanium color as they call it so it's kind of an off-white for the view 91 it's just a large case with a huge glass side panel and it's really meant for showroom builds you wouldn't buy this for consumer but yeah basically put a home server or something in there or just a fish tank of a PC with the open loop that they have here it's gonna be expensive it's gonna be like four hundred five hundred dollars so not consumer product but we'll point it out and then we can get to the consumer products after I quickly mentioned the level twenty as well which we previously saw at Computex but has been mostly finalized at this point and we've got some b-roll of it it's a little bit wider than com you text otherwise it's pretty much the same idea so you can watch that coverage for more information on the level twenty so for the last couple of cases you probably haven't seen these on other channels or won't for a while because it's in a separate room these are actually the more affordable cases that I think for our audience are probably the most interesting they're less flashy and more practical none of these are final we don't have we have prices but we don't necessarily have fans back or things like that so the main ones these are the Versa series the age 26 and the age 27 it's the same chassis the same tooling the difference is in the front panel where this one has a mesh for the bottom and it can fit to 120 millimeter fans in those bottom two slots there's no fan port in the top because it actually supports five and a quarter Bay's I know some of you still want those these cases do actually have them and you sacrifice the top fans a lot as a result but that's kind of the trade-off with five and a quarter it can fit 120 in the back as well no vertical GPU nothing fancy like that it's just a tempered glass side panel on the side and then mesh on the bottom and these I think are gonna be $60 from what I understand now no final spec on the fans this is probably the one I would be most interested in this one you've got the box off panel but I guess if you want that for cheap you could get it but yeah I definitely recommend that one over the other the other case is the J series so there's J 22 and a J 23 same thing same internal chassis same tooling different front panel the one that I prefer has a mesh for the bottom front as well and that can fit two fans in it same spot I'm not sure if they're one 20s or one 40s on that one but it can fit two in the bottom one in the back and it has a power supply shroud with some ventilation meshing stabbed in the top of for lower PCIe devices and it's also got tempered glass that one's gonna be $55 so five dollar difference between the two from what we understand now TBD on everything else and that's pretty much the Thermaltake suite there's a couple other things as always but we'll leave those for later you can subscribe for more CES coverage patreon.com slash gamers Nexus tops out directly thank you for watching I'll see you all next time
