Newegg.com - Thermaltake Level 10 GT (VN10001W2N) Black SECC / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case
What do people think of this case?

I wouldn't be able to use a H60 though.

<---Not a fan.

Pretty ugly.....but I guess that is subjective. Personally, I am more a fan of the understated than the more avant-garde....but that's just me.

Seems pretty overpriced.....and for what? Would you use the hot-swapping? Or the changing LED lighting? I just don't see anything that justifies the price (nothing really ground-breaking or innovative), or the looks of it.

For that money, you could get something nice....like a Cosmos, HAF, a Lian Li, among others.

Fine, use your logic Dex. I thought it looked cool. It's mainly meant for people doing water cooling though.

Well, nevermind, you can install a H60 in it.

Ah, nvm. That review is for the $900 Level 10, not the $250 one.

If you are going to water cool....why dick around with an H60?

Many cases (such as the HAF) are designed with water in mind. The HAF has a filler hole at the top, as well as enough room to mount a HUGE radiator on top (instead of the 250mm fan it comes with). I think the Cosmos has the same sort of engineering,but I'm not sure.

And looks are subjective....what I think looks nice is probably boring as shit to you.....and that is fine.

I was looking at the level 10 for my new build, But after reviewing it hardcore i went with the HAF X and ive been happy with it.

I think the aesthetics of the Level 10 are a love it or hate it thing.
I am on the hate it side of that one.

Actually, the Level 10 is a terrible case for water cooling. There is no room for radiators, reservoirs, or pumps... let alone room for tubing. Even if you could cram a radiator into it, it would be tough getting fans to fit on the radiators.

The Level 10 is for air cooling with little overclocking. It really is a cool looking case, but it really isn't designed for PC enthusiasts. And yes, it is overpriced, in my opinion. You can get much better cases between $200-500.
