Thermaltake Armour+ case Review
Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 01/13/2008 10:35 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]
Bit-Tech published a review of Thermaltake's Armour+ case
On the one hand the case is (and I'm finally just going to come out and say it) pretty ugly. At the same time though it performs decently in the thermal performance tests, has plenty of room in it and also is incredibly beefy in terms of the amount of hardware it can hold.
/ /But it's pretty ugly. And noisy.
When it comes down to it though, it's obvious that only a certain type of person is going to be interested in the Armour+ - those who really enjoy showing off their over stylised cases at big LAN events. It's / /all about the e-peen.
The ThermalTake Armour+ is a good case and ticks nearly all the boxes, but for me personally it is let down by a horrible look, bizarre doors which really, honestly, confound me and the fact that it's a bit too noisy. Factor into that the price as well, realising that for £20 less you could get a far classier and quiter case like the Antec P182 ($60 less in the US) and the ThermalTake Armour+ is a bit less overwhelming.
