Thermaltake Core P3 ATX Tempered Glass Gaming Computer Case Chassis, Open Frame Panoramic Viewing, Glass Wall-Mount, Riser Cable Included, Black Edition, CA-1G4-00M1WN-06

I recently upgraded my gaming rig, and after extensive research, I settled on the Thermaltake Core P8 Tempered Glass E-ATX Full Tower Chassis. Let me tell you, this case is an absolute game-changer! First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. The robust construction and attention to detail are immediately apparent upon unboxing. The tempered glass panels not only showcase the internal components beautifully but also add a touch of sophistication to my setup. The modular design of the Core P8 is a stroke of genius. Assembling my system was a breeze, thanks to the spacious interior and the well-thought-out layout. Cable management was a dream, with ample space behind the motherboard tray and convenient routing options. Ventilation is top-notch with support for multiple cooling configurations. The ability to install up to three 480mm radiators ensures that my system stays cool even during the most intense gaming sessions. The open-frame design not only aids in airflow but also allows for easy access to components for upgrades or maintenance. The Core P8's compatibility with E-ATX motherboards gives me plenty of room for expansion, and the inclusion of numerous drive bays means I can accommodate all my storage needs without sacrificing performance. One of the standout features for me is the vertical GPU mounting option. It adds a visually striking element to the build, showcasing my graphics card like a piece of art. The case also offers flexibility in terms of horizontal GPU placement, catering to different aesthetic preferences. In terms of aesthetics, the Core P8 is a showstopper. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast or a PC building aficionado, the sleek lines and tempered glass panels make it a centerpiece in any setup. While the Thermaltake Core P8 might be on the higher end of the price spectrum, the investment is undoubtedly justified. The quality, functionality, and versatility it brings to the table are worth every penny. In conclusion, if you're in the market for a premium E-ATX full tower chassis that blends form and function seamlessly, the Thermaltake Core P8 is an absolute winner. It has exceeded my expectations in every aspect, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to fellow enthusiasts looking to elevate their PC building experience.

I'm absolutely in love with this case and for the low price it's a steal. Especially with the tempered glass. It's truly one of a kind and will display your goods in style. This thing is soo sturdy, albeit heavy. The bolts on the glass are plenty strong to keep this thing suspended under my table I built it into. The options for placement and being able to vertically display a GPU are great. I have had no issues with the PCI-e riser included for my MSI GTX-1080. I wound up buying a second PCI riser for my wifi card. Cons - Instruction manual doesn't cover much for assembly. I had a really hard time figuring out which of the 10 screw varieties were the right one to attach each piece (had to trial and error). - I wish there was some kind of L bracket or something to mount my 5 old noctua fans for more airflow around the outside of the case. Thermals are 2-4ish degrees better than in my corsair spec-01 enclosed case. - i wish the back cover wasn't a crappy metal slide in style which 1 notch always gets missed. Can't complain though since they would have had to raise the price otherwise. What I learned assembling it - install GPU prior to PCU if mounting with the riser. Use thumb tighten screws for all 4 GPU bracket connection points. - remove the heavy wall mount plate on the inside before anything else. Helps bring the weight down if you don't plan on wall mounting it. - attach the big feet and small rubber ones so you can rotate it while installing.

Great case. I finally went with an open air case and I'm not disappointed. Construction quality and aesthetic are phenomenal (I bought the black version). Currently mounting this to the wall next to my desk with a single-stud TV mount (It's an Amazon Basics item, cost about $30, model number 7851B). The wall mount look is as good as expected, and the TV arm is plenty strong enough to hold this case. Fastened very securely, and I moved it a few times to reassure myself it wouldn't break or fall off the wall. Good: case quality and looks are great. Airflow and spacing is great. Cable management was easy, and mounting the GPU horizontally let me keep a minimal look. Thrilled with how this build is coming along. Cons: there isn't many places for fans, so if you want to run a large radiator for cooling one component you limit what you can do to cool another component. I'm using a large radiator for the CPU and will stick with stock cooling on the GPU. Not a huge con, but know that you can't put multiple radiators on here. Also, I'm not using any of the 2.5/3.5 drive bays, but there are more than I expected with five in total. Placement of some of the drives might be less than ideal though, with three of the slots completely blocking where the radiator will be mounted. That's a serious choice to make if you wanted to shove a bunch of drives on this. Not worth complaining though, I knew before I bought it that I was going full NVME. Finally, putting the feet on is a pain in the butt until you get the first screw in place. It's not you, it's just super irritating. The other 3 screws for each foot are easy though, and I'll be taking the feet off once this is permanently wall mounted. Strongly recommend this case for an unusual, minimal look that showcases the components.

First let me start by saying that I love this case. I have 3 of these and the ability to mount them on the wall has been an amazing way to utilize otherwise wasted space. They look great. They're sturdy. They're a fun little project to construct. They're good cases. Here's the issue. 1 out of 3 was a little..."temperamental". Yeah, that's a reasonable way to describe it. So, I constructed these cases back to back. The first 2 cases were fine. No problems at all. Love them. This third case gave me issues removing the rear cover. So I got my flat head and tried to use it as a lever to help me slide it back out of the "latches". This was after doing some basic checking to ensure I wasn't trying to slide it the wrong way. I got it to slide back and off after a few minutes of elbow grease. It felt extremely "tight" and didn't slide freely even after I got it to move though. I constructed everything and continued thinking to myself "it's fine, it's cabling only so no major components to get to so I don't expect to have to open it up often." Well, sure enough after about a month I decided I wanted to build a Hackintosh and I needed to remove one of the SSD's I installed. To do this required me to remove the rear cover. I never was able to get the rear cover off. I tried for 2 hours before finally giving up and channeling my inner Incredible Hulk to rip it open. So take a look at the pictures to see what it looks like. I thought I read about someone else having a similar issue and wishing they had returned their's for a new one instead of keeping it but I could be projecting. That's what I hope to convey in this review though. If you have any issues with this thing whatsoever just return it for a new one. Here I am about to purchase 2 more of these because they're such great cases but seriously, do yourself a favor and return it for a perfect one. @Thermaltake Please get the QA situated so this doesn't happen. The material quality is great. The case is great. However, when something like this happens it is a serious problem. I still haven't got the back off this thing and am considering taking my angle grinder to cut it apart. I am still going to get more of these because they are great cases but be on the lookout for any issues like this. Overall I'm happy with the ones that are mounted and functioning! Have already and will continue to recommend these cases with this caveat.

***UPDATED REVIEW*** Okay so I originally gave this case a two star review, but now updating it to a 5 star. Original issue I had with the case was that the PCIE bracket does not hold a PCIE 4 cable, only the pcie 3 cable that came with the case. I reached out to their support, and got a message almost instantly. The issue I had was that I was using a PCIE 4 with a 90 degree angle. They pointed out that I need a normal pcie with no angle, and should fit. Haven't ordered the new cable yet, but thought the case deserves an updated review due to the stellar customer service from TT, and the case is very pleasant, and appears to be of good quality (the cable was the only irratant for me). I will update again if I have any further issues with the new cable I am going to order. Previous review: I really really want to like this case. Quality is good, and case looks really good. By and large, everything went together smoothly with no issues, until I got to the pcie riser cable for my GPU. Here is the problem, the case came with a pcie 3 riser cable but I wanted to use a pcie 4 cable instead. Ordered two sets of pcie 4 cables and both will not fit on the included pcie bracket. Holes don’t match up. First cable I ordered was by linkup and wouldn’t work. Then I returned it and order a thermaltake pcie 4 riser cable thinking it should work (you would think) on their cases, but nope same issue. Pcie 4 cable holes will not match up. The original pcie 3 cable that came with the case works perfectly, but what about the people that want to use pcie 4 or even 5 in the future for future proofing? Seems really dump that they can’t provide a bracket that supports pcie 4. This is a big deal for me. I will try to get a hold of the manufacture tomorrow to see if they have a workaround, and I will revise my review when I hear from them.

Big pro here the quality of this case is amazing. I have a atx build with more than ample room for working. Cable management is pretty good has plenty of routing options for clean looks. Also this case come with more than enough hard wear (screw, standoffs) Big con this is not a beginner case as the instruction manual does not identify which parts are for which items. There is no clarity when placing parts. Overall I would recommend this case on sheer quality and visual appearance. I would not recommend for beginners. As the instruction are unclear and a lot of guess work.

Took me a while to set up, but you only have to do it once. Youtube build videos really helped here since the instructions are sparse. It is very heavy and offers lots of options. I put a 420 radiator on top along with a 7900xtx. PSU on/off switch and cord may be blocked by bottom rear steel rod so make sure to check orientations of your PSU or you might have to install PSU fan up. I used a Montech Titan 1200W and it is fine in regular postion. Noisy since the base and both sides are open in my setup, but you may purchase another mounting bracket for another radiator or case fans. Only comes with the one bracket. HD mounting a bit weird too so research that. Great case once it is set up, more visual than performance. Basically know what you are getting into if you get this open case of solid construction since it arrives fully dissasembled with a couple bags of screws. Lotta fun

I have been looking for a PC case that was wall mounted and I found this product on my first search. After looking at pictires I decided this was the one for me and ordered the product. Once it arrived, I ws suprised how heavy it was even without my parts installed. Now while while putting the case togrther wasn't difficult, it did not come with any instructions which left me confused on what screw goes where and so on. But a quick Google search helped a lot as there are videos everywhere regarding installation. Now regarding the pros, this case is very well game. Everything is metals and even comes with a tempered glass front which is much better than acrylic. Everything I had for perfectly and jt even allowed me to use a 360 AIO for my CPU. Once put together, this case looks amazing and really allows you to show off your expensive parts. The only con I had was the powdercoating was not as good as other cases which cause it to be easily scratched, but if you sre careful you will not have to worry. Regarding a wall mount, make sure you get one that can handle heavy weight. Since there ismy a big price difference, I ordered a 100lb wall mount just to make sure this stays on the wall. Last thing yih want if thousands of dollars hitting the ground at mach speed lol. Other than that, this is a a great product if you are looking for a wall mounted PC case. It even comes with a PCI-E x16 Riser so no need to order one ! I would recommend this product to anyone as I have high trust in Thermaltake products. Pros: Quality metal frame Tempered Glass PCI-E x16 Riser included Easily wall mounted Cons: No instructions regarding setup Powdercoating isn't as tough as others
