TL;DR they thought of (nearly) everything, including the kitchen sink.

 

2013 to 2015 has been the revolution age of case designs, I'm loving it. Every form factor has tons of low cost quality choices now.

Edit: In other news, never link that Eteknix site again, may it die in unholy fire.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

imo. all Thermaltake cases would look 200% better if they had the balls to take their logo off the front. ala. Fractal Design

I find the recent designs to really cover the needs most of us were hoping for.

Do you think we reached the peak in terms of case design except maybe some minor tweaks and standard upgrades?

 

Note: I removed link to Eteknix site :-)

The logo is magnetic. Pops right off.

I don't think we've reached the peak, no, I still need my midi tower with room for 2x mini-ITX boards!

If this had a optional attachable handle for a LAN gaming portable computer that would be awesome

That would be tricky to do considering all 4 side panels can be swapped freely. It would require trading one strong feature for one weak feature, so IMO there's already the Prodigy for that.

Look a bit odd, I'm not a fan of the front. Though in a stack it looks freaking awesome

Yeah, I think the front would look better without the logo being on it. I think they could have put the logo somewhere else...

I know. I meant to quote the person who posted before sof006.

Yeah, wasn't entirely your fault. Don't worry about it. ;)

Even though I'm probably scaling down to mITX building into a Phanteks Evolv ITX, the Thermaltake Core V21 is a nice mATX case with tons of room and configuration options. I'm not into the stackable thing. As far as the front cover, it would look cool to mod that - maybe with a thin adhesive perforated aluminum skin and/or cut out a new fan inlet using those dual 120mm aluminum fan grills from Mnpctech to dress it up. I still wouldn't mind building a killer rig in this case because of what you can do with the interchangeable side panels.
