Thermaltake’s Divider 300TG is attractive, but lacks the quality and performance needed to stand out in today’s market.
Thermaltake Divider 300TG Review: Dividing Opinions : Read more
When it comes to thermal take cases, I tend to pass them up. I used to follow the old addage, you get what you pay for. With their cases, this sadly hasn't been the case with me. No pun intended lol.
First stimulus, built three new Pentium 7 systems using their $350 glass cases. I'll get the models later. I'm writing this by phone.
At this price one would expect quality. This fell far short. Was advertised toolless. Meaning no looking for screw driver's or torch tools. Only part that was toolless was the 4 drive bays and the thumb screws for played glass. Half the rubber washers missing on all 3 cases and non extra with supplies. The bays were double, each one taking 4 screws and all 3 cases, bottom one was found not connected, as if just thrown in. Took me seconds to see the screw holes were never threaded.
One thing I always test before installing a motherboard is to make sure all risers are secure. My last Thermal take case taught me that lesson. That's when you find out too late as you try tightening the screws, the posts turn due to bad weld or punch. I'm short tempered so I just drilled it out and spot welded in my own.
Fans wired incorrectly. Pin removal tool fixed that. Not all mind you. Just 2. No speaker. Seller took off $200 if I kept them.
I am building a 4th system now and this case looks very similar to the above but no issues and all is tool free. Shocking thing, plated glass case here was only $136.
I love the reviews here. The above one falling short is no surprise to me. yeah they can blame the pandemic on this, but these issues were being experienced long before that ship sailed.
