Not quite sure what to think. :confused:
Frozen CPU Thermaltake W0029

"won't fit in anything but a lian li pc 75" and provides crappy quality like most other thermaltake products seems like a good place to start.

However I will rserve judgement until a real review shows up
 
$149.99 seems like a lot...plus the rails don't look very impressive for a 350 watt.
 
I don't know why people keep slamming TT products. In my experience, their PSUs have been stable and their cases designed well. The support can be flakey at times, but I've completed a few RMAs with no hitches at all before. It seems like too many people at [h] jump on the "let's slam TT" bandwagon. :rolleyes:

One person should not complete "a few RMA's" from the same place...that failure rate = crap, even if you bought 100 items from them

their xaxes III is designed like shit. you have to break off the "super 133t plastic screwless pci slot" thingies in order to get a radeon 9600 pro to fit, their are WAY to many wires all over the place even with nothing installed in the case, the case scratches amazingly easy, even compared to my coolermaster atc 101b, the drive rails SUCK and are very floppy, you cant change out the thermaltake hardcano for any other 5.25 device unless you want it like 5 inches in back of the door, rendering that bay utterly useless (kinda like the hardcano), and I could go on and on and on.

And their psu's suck equally (except for a few made by enlight). Seriously, you shouldn't have to make several rma's, that was a good point. Their psu's fluctuate like mad, have low amperage and quality compared to the competition, etc.

Sorry if I sound mad, I just hate tt products. They also rip off other peoples designes too. What popular case does the tsunami look like? The Xaser series? How about their tower heatpipe coolers? Giant video card series coolers?

Ugh I hate TT
 
IMO, the Tsunami is one of the best cases I've ever used. Ranks up there right with my Antec 1080.
 
roflmao fugly as hell, you gotta hand it to thermaltake they do have the best reputation for putting out the most fugly.......... well everything just look at their cases rofl

Of course it's a great case, its a COOLERMASTER :p You didn't hear about the whole thing where everyone was accusing TT of copying them?

14A on +12? I think the Antec Phantom 350W fanless PSU can pull off 16A.

Phantom has 16A on 12V1, 18A on 12V2. I should have picked up a phantom.
Yeah, the Thermaltake seems lacking.

*sigh*, thats a common misconception. Quote shamelessly ripped from another thread:

Neither the front bezel nor the internal design of the Tsunami is taken from either of those cases.

The only similarity to the Coolermaster is the curved front design. The Wavemaster has a small lip near the bottom right, whereas the Tsunami has a lip that runs from top to bottom. The Tsunami also has the chrome trim piece, LEDs, and double doors.

The only internal similarity to the Antec is the use and placement of the two 120mm fans, which is quite standard actually. Otherwise the PSU mount, the support bar (standard to Thermaltake), the hole behind the PSU, the motherboard tray, the expansion slot locks, and the removable drive cages are all very much different.

Yes, Tt did bank on the popularity of the "wave" design, however functionaly the Tsunami is everything the Wavemaster was NOT. Slightly larger, SPECTACTULAR paint job, FAR better cooling, wire management, removeable cages, double doors, more accessible accessory ports, locking side panel, and built-in rubber washers to silence the hard drive. Far superior in almost every respect... and to top it off it's marginally less expensive.
