It's the illegitimate bastard child of the Original Level 10.

It looks absolutely horrid in my opinion, and the air cooling capabilities would appear to be abysmal at best. For $270, you'd be far better served by a Silverstone FT02.

Plus, it's Thermaltake, need I say more?
 
Looks like a huge upgrade to me.

Original level 10 fans: 1x 140mm, 1x 120mm and 2x 60mm
Level 10 GT fans: 1x 140mm, 3x 200mm.

Cable management on the 1st one was horrible because the PSU was in its own seperate box and you hate to feed wires through each compartment. GT version has PSU in the main case zone and moved to the bottom.

Not sure why you think cooling will be terrible? It has a similar fan setup to HAF X series.

Price on the first one was insane, new one is actually a reasonable price for such a unique case design.
 
Looks cool to me. But then again so does the silverstone ft02 like others said; it's cheaper also.

The main thing with cases like these is the way they look. And the first one looks much better. I'd never buy a case that looks like this based on performance.

Rather double the money for the Level 10. The level 10 looks intriguing and new and interesting, an Epeen toy if nothing else. This seems like a horrible attempt at turning the Level 10 into something practical. If it was supposed to be practical you wouldn't have hired BMW to design it.
 
Not sure about this one still, price has certainly improved, I'm not sure what TheOneKnownAsMe is on about, yeah it's a Thermaltake, but normally they get ridiculed for all the LED fans, or gaudy cases (mostly people bitching that the case is not black, with black chassis, and...well not entirely painted black, like the f4@king Rolling Stones song), you should like this one, it's matt black, kinda boring to look at, but more interesting than what you proposed.
 
Everyone tries to mimic BMW. Hyundai and now Thermaltake. Best to stick with the original. Level 10 is sick and well designed/constructed, but so dang $expensive$ :rolleyes:.
 
I think it moves away from the components having a separate design and just moving everything into one space. Not very well done either.
 
looks like shit, IMO... but at least it isn't $800 AND looks like shit
 
Not really a fan of it. It looks to me like they took a standard chassis and TRIED to make it look like the original. And now that there is a clone, it feels to me like it ruins the effect of the original as well.
