Conclusion:
The Thermaltake Element T case set out with a mission of providing an excellent gaming case on a budget and has succeeded.
Conclusion:
Overall it was a great case for its price, looks, features, and cooling makes this a definite contender. With some of the optional add-ons I am sure this case would be a killer gaming chassis for your next build. I love the red LED’s and the front panels honey comb style is awesome.
Conclusion:
The Thermaltake Element T case is a great buy for the money and represents all of the features that make the Element series so impressive. The look of the case is great with subtle aesthetics giving a nice style to the case that is far from over the top.
Conclusion:
Representing the lowest cost, entry level model in the Element series, the T still manages to impress us with its functionality and good looks.
Conclusion:
Whether you need a new or replacement case this would be a great case to start and perhaps end your search with.
Conclusion:
Whether you need a new or replacement case this would be a great case to start and perhaps end your search with.
Conclusion:
Thermaltake Element T is a mid-tower case for users that want a good case but don’t want or can’t pay more to have a case with superior quality.
Conclusion:
It is very well made, no sharp edges everything lines up perfectly and the supplied fans are very quiet indeed, I definitely recommend adding a couple of the Thermaltake ISGC Fan 12 in the front too. It looks very nice, in my opinion, and whilst not being as big as other cases it has plenty of room for a full ATX set up with top end graphics cards in.
Conclusion:
The Element T has a solid frame and when filled with fans should offer exceptional cooling quality.
Conclusion: This chassis is one of the biggest mid sized towers I have seen to date. During the use of this chassis I did not have to worry about components being to cramped or wire management once installed. I give the Element T chassis a 8.5 out of 10
Conclusion: The T is for the budget-minded individual that wants something which looks good and doesn't cost an entire paycheck to buy. The Element T is an all black mesh front panel case with clean lines begging for some attention.
Conclusion: Overall the Thermaltake Element T has a lot of features for the price. It offers a ton of cooling options and even looks cool with the Red LED illumination.
Conclusion: Value Award.
Conclusion: This chassis is one of the biggest mid sized towers I have seen to date. During the use of this chassis I did not have to worry about components being to cramped or wire management once installed.
Conclusion: I'm pleased to give this case from Thermaltake our highest rating of 5/5. There are a couple of very minor niggles with the case, but they're easily ignored when you take the price into account. The value-for-money offered by the Element-T is excellent, and the niggles are so minor, they don't justify taking away a point from the score, although I do feel the omission of a dust filter on the PSU air intake is something Thermaltake should reconsider.
Conclusion: My time with the Element T was surprising and pleasurable; no cuts or odd flimsy parts. While the tool-less clips could use some work on being able to move, for the price required to have it, I can let things slide. I do look at it as if it were a more expensive chassis as far as what it offers, and to be honest, it offers quite a bit in just its basic design without having to fill it full of “trinkets” to win me over.
Conclusion: A brilliant budget case if you are looking for a case to withstand all your overclocking needs.
Conclusion: This case has lots of drive bays, hole on motherboard tray, fantastic air circulation when optional fans are installed and much more. There's not doubt about it, this case it has major bang for the buck.
Conclusion: The Thermaltake Element T is quite attractive, light, sturdy, and has some good features in a well laid-out mid-tower chassis. The quality and options here aren't as robust as the Element G or S, but then again you're not paying nearly as much either.
Conclusion: So we finally bring this review to a conclusion and, oh what a case. It may lack a few features that I personally would have liked to have seen, it could have some better wire management features and could have had more fans, but honestly - with this level of performance, you do seem to be getting a lot for your money.
Conclusion: Excellent product.
Conclusion: Element T is the smallest and lightest version of the Element family. It is also the simplest but strong enough for heavy use like LANs.
Conclusion: Finally, one can say that the Thermaltake element T is a great case for overclockers who need excellent air circulation as well as for design enthusiasts who are looking for something stylish to put in their room. Price-wise and in regard of the many features the Element T is very inexpensive and therefore an attractive choice.
