Thermaltake Core V51 is an amazing case with a reasonable price tag. The Core V51 costs about $120. The full mesh front panel is beautiful to look at and it also allows better air flow. The front panel comes with a built in dust filter to keep the insides of the PC clean. The whole case stands on top of tall and sturdy case feet. Although Thermaltake says that this is a mid tower case but it's pretty much a full tower.
Two 5.25" optical bay drives are located at the front below the IO Panel. The IO panel consists of 2 USB 3 ports, 2 audio jacks , power and restart button. The power button illuminates whilst the PC is turned on. The side panel has a huge window which shows all the components inside your PC. The side panel is one of the most attractive features of this case. Although, the fact that the side panel window can be scratched easily is a bit of a disappointment. A large magnetic dust filter is located up top to keep your PC dust free. On top, you can install 3x120 or 3x140 or 2x200mm. fans. On the rear, three water cooling grommets are present above the included 120mm. rear fan. Two dust filters are located at the bottom which covers the PSU and optional fans or radiator area. Two 120mm. fans are included at the front and it has support for triple 120 or 140mm. fans. The fans at the front are attached to height adjustable mounting strips.
The side panels on both sides swivel to open and they are easy to use. Inside, the case is very spacious. It has room for all the modern GPUs. The hard drive cages are fully modular and they are elevated. A 240mm. radiator or two 120mm. fans can be installed at the bottom by removing the lower hard drive cage. A single 120mm. fan can also be installed at the bottom of the case without removing the hard drive cage. Installing the hard drives are pretty easy and intuitive. Cable management is easy inside this case. All the cables can be routed to the back without any problem and they are concealed since the cable routing holes are grommeted. At the back, there's also plenty of space for managing all the cables. Assembly inside this case is seamless. The finished build will look excellent inside this case. So, the Thermaltake Core V51 is a solid choice for someone looking forward to build a new PC or someone who is looking to upgrade to an enthusiast grade chassis. But the pricing can be a bit risky since enthusiast grade cases like the Enthoo Pro from Phanteks is also a solid choice and it's available at $100. Overall, the case is great and it deserves to be one of the best cases manufactured by Thermaltake yet.
