Thermaltake v200

Hi, I was looking at the Thermaltake's v200 case (non RGB) because it attracted me the low price (55€ in Italy) and the thing that it offers. Is it good or bad for you? It would save me a few € that i can spend in other more important stuff for gaming.

Hey there. I took a look at the Thermaltake V200, here's what I thought about it:

• Airflow intake seems to be limited to a small gap under and to the side of the front panel, and to the tiny gaps around the tempered glass panels. Things inside'll get pretty toasty.
• The PCIe brackets are those non-reusable types. Might want to keep this in mind if you plan on upgrading your rig down the road (Wi-Fi cards, sound cards, etc.).
• For €55, I'd say it's an okay choice. You get all the bare necessities, basic front I/O ports, and plenty of room that'll accommodate pretty much any standard PC build.

Personal Opinion: If it were my money to spend, I'd save up and invest it in a more long-term solution like the Fractal Design Meshify C or Cooler Master MasterCase H500. But, hey, it's €55.

Thank you very much, I think i'll pick a meshify C or a h510 if I can. They look much better too.

I was able to find the rear side panle photo, which does show side vent cotouts for sirfloww, but they oddly dont span the entire length of the vent slot...... So still fairly poor airflow, worse than the NZXT H510
