Conclusion:
As I would expect, the case is well built. It is
very rugged and sturdy, and will take most reasonable abuse. The case
looks nice, definitely does not resemble any Xaser case. The brushed
aluminum gives it more of a Silverstone look, very conservative, very
clean. I really like it. I suppose since most people would consider me
"middle-aged", it probably fits me better than the Xaser, not that I
care what people think of my rig. Fit and finish, both interior and
exterior are excellent.
Conclusion:
Thermaltake has raised the bar with their ESA-qualified Armor BWS6001
case. The case has all of the expansion options you expect from a
Full-Tower ATX case and the features that you need as well.
Conclusion:
This case has everything you could ever need and more. With seven quick swappable hard drive mounts, you should have no reason to run out of HDD room. By far, one of the nicest cases that i have seen in ages, TechwareLabs proudly presents this case with our Editors Choice Award.

|
Q3. I'm running low on coolant. What's happening and what can I do? |
|
ANS:
Coolant evaporates naturally and becomes more concentrated. It is recommended that you replace the coolant every 3-6 months. Extra Thermaltake coolants (part no. CL-W0044 and CL-W0148) are available for purchase from computer retail stores or make your own by adding 1/5 automotive antifreeze and 4/5 distilled water for the best results.
|
|
Q4. My coolant is turning dark and losing its UV reactivity. What should I do? |
|
ANS:
This is a known condition of the coolant we are using. We recommend replacing the coolant once every 3-6 months with fresh coolant. A good substitute would be 20% automotive antifreeze with 80% distilled water. |
Q5. Where can I download a copy of the users manual?
| ANS:
The users manual can be downloaded from here: http://www.thermaltake.com/db/pictures/modules/PDT/PDT060207001/2008721991870904.zip
