Thermaltake V3 Build and Comments Video Part 2 [HD]

[UARAF16]

Do you think i can fit a 11.5 inch gigabyte 6950 in this case?

It has 3 fans, that's why its so huge.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@UARAF16 i dont think so sorry

[supertacoman132]

Is the stock fan noisy? Or quite

[MrGamesOfficial]

@supertacoman132 its not to bad

[Exorcist92]

For the price I really like this case, only problem is I can't finish my rig because my on boot I get 2 short beeps and no video, so I'm guessing my RAM is DOA?

[romario50001]

The stock cooler is loud

[situsrc]

Is amd's stock cooler good enough if i'm playing games like team fortress 2 and etc?

[JohnRobertM]

Thanks for the info. I just purchased this case today. I'm not a gamer, but I do want to build a powerful PC for video editing. I also like having a case that is easy to access to do upgrades. I'm going with an Intel Quad Core CPU and 16 GB of RAM. I'm planning on running Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit & Windows 7 64 Bit as a dual boot system.

[otopilas700]

How do u open the front panel? Please respond.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@otopilas700 pretty sure u just pull ?

[gearsofshock]

great looking case, and very cheap

[BOMBERMAN714]

how do you remove the front bezel... I'm having a hard time removing the top 2 screws.

[GenoSkill]

is that english you talkin?

[MrGamesOfficial]

@GenoSkill nah its american

[AusTechGeek]

Would it be easy to cut out the mesh, say with a dremel? and stick a piece of see thru stuff there?

[TheEnrico05]

put black wire sleeving, it will look very nice, i have my thermaltake v4 and i love it very good for the price

[MrGamesOfficial]

@xmodmodifier fair enough, the audio should work though? its pretty good for the price u must admit

[xmodmodifier]

@MrGamesOfficial oh i got it figured out. i was going nuts with the 8 pin sticking out towards the video card, but i managed to shove it inside more.

i also tucked the psu wires underneed the hdd @ 2:17 and still have clearance for airflow on the front fan... so its cool now

the thing is that i am running i7 950 with this case -.-

and audio dont work so i am using a logitech speaker with audio... WAHT A LIFE SAVER!

[zDToddy]

@xmodmodifier i got a friend that just bought a HAF and his cable management sucks, there is enough room for cable management in the case, the rest is up to you.

[xmodmodifier]

@zDToddy well, with v3 i'm trying to do some case modding, i'm thinking about extending the back panel using a 2x2 sheet metal and fold it like a tray that can give you an 1/2 inch space...

[reggieTHErabbit]

Hey are using the psu that come weith the case? and also are thos graphics cards 5670??

[MrGamesOfficial]

@reggieTHErabbit they were my old 3870's and no i want using the stock psu. It was the thermaltake lite power 600w i think.

[reggieTHErabbit]

Hey if you take everything out of your old case like unplugg everything and stuff will all the stuff be erased on your hdds like will windows xp be erased and anll my settings?

[MrGamesOfficial]

@reggieTHErabbit nope, everything should still be there on your hard drive. but to be sure, you should create a back up of the important things.

[reggieTHErabbit]

Do you find the one fan enough to cool everything???

[MrGamesOfficial]

@reggieTHErabbit depends on what you have in the case, for me, it does the job. but it could be better

[saiiad737]

it look even better witch 3 fans look on: watch?v=oJYVXpm3eD0

[kipdokken]

how about two gtx 260? can it fit?

[xmodmodifier]

@kipdokken yees

[PcMrGaming]

why the little window on the side? :S

[CyBeRproductionz]

does the zalman 9500 cooler fit? i think its like 5in

[MrGamesOfficial]

@CyBeRproductionz not sure man, check the dimensions on the internet - it should be on their site.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@MrGamesOfficial or maybe send them an email

[Metalozedex]

can you like, do a good cable management with this case?

[sevenem]

@Metalozedex  Not really. You'll have to hide everything behind the HDD cages. There will be lots of zip-ties involved.

[TheDaemonarch]

I have this case and i just bought 2 coolermaster fans.Atm i only use 1 fan, so whats the best spot to place the 2 new fans for the best airflow? tnx in advance .

[sd9800]

if u have a fan on the bottom it will suck up some crap "if its on the floor"

i like my lenovo j 3000 case better lol

[RayRhoads]

Thanks for your support man, i want to buy on case like this. I have a Corsair H50 CPU cooler, and some people says that its imposible use that cooler in this case. What u can tell me about it?? Its compatible with my cooler?? Thanks

[juupajuu111]

@RayRhoads i think its compatiple with this case but it might be a little narrow with the tubing, but by looking at images from other setups, it fits easily in that case.

[RayRhoads]

@juupajuu111 very thanks for the help man

[sevenem]

@RayRhoads

The H50 WILL NOT fit in this case without mods.

[TheKnightOutlaw]

will my 5870 fit in here because im going to make this my case 5870 ranges from 10.5 inches to 11

[MrGamesOfficial]

@TheKnightOutlaw i have a 5850 currently in mine, i hope that helps as i am not sure exactly how long it is compared to the 5870. end of 5850 to the case is about another 1.5 inches i am guessing

[SuperSkeem]

nice case i will buy it tomorrow, thanks for the video

[AvidHobbyist]

I'm really worried about the fans not fitting - especially at the top two vents. Did you have any trouble installing them?

[Tilan123]

wooo! im gonna get this case nxt week!

[atrocity1]

i just bought this case the other day. its an awesome case. even though there is no clearance for the top fan with my dvd drive installed. i love it though.

[ajuki95]

and i m going to buy 3 more coolers

[ajuki95]

i ll use this case in my new computer

intel core i5 750

sapphire radeon hd 5850

4gb ram

........

[MrDavid10]

@ajuki95 ehm.... who cares?

[synicalx1]

Awesome vids, convinced me to get a V3 at MSY =D

Just out of curiosity though, what sort of temps were you getting with only the one fan? I'm thinking I might grab another 120mm intake fan for the HDD bay, but it might not be worth my while if everything stays reasonably cool?

[MrGamesOfficial]

temps are good but it wouldnt hurt to grab another fan :)

[synicalx1]

Groovy, thanks for the reply!

[juupajuu111]

@MrGamesOfficial have you tried to put fans to all the fan input's? if you could test how noisy it is with 5 fans, because im afraid my ears will blow if i add fans to all the optional input's.

sry for bad eng.

[sleepunknot]

MrGamesOfficial have you seen my videos of this case?

[MrGamesOfficial]

yeah, i just took a look, did u get the case because of this video? do u like it?

what specs?

[sleepunknot]

no, I found this case in a shop I often buy supplies, but after seeing your review I had no doubts and I bought cost me 39 euros, thanks for the review was very helpful.

Once this new case I lack even put two fans on top of 92mm and 120mm to graphic card but first I have to buy the graphic in April I will buy a HD5770.

tks MrGamesOfficial you are a nice guy.

sorry my english its not the best :P

[MrGamesOfficial]

thanks man, anytime!

[zigsauer]

The Scythe Slip Stream Slim 120x120x12mm will fit on the top !

[sleepunknot]

i fit an noctua nh-u9b se2 92mm i will upload a photo of my system i have this case.

[MrGamesOfficial]

nice, good to hear!

[sleepunknot]

MrGamesOfficial i have a doubt can i put on the top 92 mm fan?

[MrGamesOfficial]

i just had a better look. There are only screw wholes to put a fan in the slot closest to the dvd drive. The ventilation above the cpu does not have any fan holes :O

I believe you can only put a 120mm on top of the case next to the DVD drive

[sleepunknot]

MrGamesOfficial we could on the top buy an 2 fans 80 mm :) and problem fixed hehe

[MrGamesOfficial]

i just checked, you can always just move the dvd drive down one slo and it should fit fine. i would either get an 80mm or 92mm fan, or just one 120mm! It should fit! Keep in mind i am running a crossfire system and a unlocked/overclocked amd x3 720be! To me the stock cooling seems efficient enough! Just add one extra fan as intake is what i would do!

[sleepunknot]

MrGamesOfficial tks for your supporting :) Tomorow or more 1 day I get my new pc with this case. my technical mount this low pc

* Pentium E6300 2.8 ghz

* 4 (2x2gb) gb ddr3 1600 mhz

* Graphic card EAH3650 256 gddr3

but now have 2 fans one at rear and the other front but in this year i will buy 1 fan to top and 1 fan to graphic card. In April i will buy an HD 5770 if prices slows :)

PS: maybe other cooler with high quality and good power suply.

[MrGamesOfficial]

no worries :)

goodluck !!

[chaics85]

can you put 2 fans on top?? the space btw mobo and fan holes are so near...

does the case feel flimsy??

do reply. very interested in this budget case.. looks darn cool too..

[MrGamesOfficial]

the space on top looks limiting, not sure if the fan will fit, but probably will. i may end up buying fans for the top shortly.

in terms of being flimsy, its pretty good build quality, its built well and strong. although a top end case would of course be better, for the price this is probably the best bargain i have ever got.

the amount of value (psu and cooler) is valued ot $60au, thats only $20au for the case if u want to put it that way.

what do u plan on putting in it?

[MrGamesOfficial]

sorry type, $80 australian! absolute bargain! One thing to also remember, it is slightly smaller than ur avaerage gaming case. The case is strong enough for me for $80 australian! :)

[KocuRisko]

Thank you very much, you showed everything I wanted to see *THUMBS UP*

[MrGamesOfficial]

thanks mate!

[copyfaxscan]

thanks for the vid man.

I suggest trying to put two fans on the top first before the rest. These will suck/pass air through the bottom and front and ensure that the air doesnt recirculate.

I was surprised that it only came with one at the back while having none at the top but for the price you cant complain with that!

Ill be grabbin one today and wacking two fans in the top (fingers xxxed they fit...if not might have to put them on outside...!)

[sleepunknot]

can you put two fans on top ? i bought this case a couple of days but i will mount this case to next week.

sorry my english

[MrGamesOfficial]

@sleepunknot i know you can put one but im not sure about the other one closetst to the dvd drive!

[sleepunknot]

ok but if i install the dvd-rom and dvd+r in center and no install other drive in top :D

[MrGamesOfficial]

yeah it should be fine :)

[sleepunknot]

tks of your comments i have one more doubt can i put a fan in case to graphic card in the official site of this case can put a fan.

sorry my english

[dragonplatform]

Nice vid and nice black inside case:D

I think on this and thermaltake element t, and coolermaster gladiator 600 pc case. But the last 2 case is bigger than this case.

[MrGamesOfficial]

for the money this is a bargain

[Cronini]

your videos are very good - all of them keep it up!

[spedknot]

real nice.

[MrGamesOfficial]

thanks man.

[spedknot]

no problem, just keep the videos coming ha.

i got the same problem though. i've got a thermaltake case as well, and it doesn't provide enough space for cables.

[MrGamesOfficial]

yeah, i guess you cant go wrong for the price though.

[marland66]

Not to bad for a budget PC! Crossfire to boot! Looks good! 5/5

[doomtomb3]

He's a budget gamer but he's got crossfire lol

[MrGamesOfficial]

yeah cause i got boath cards for $120 australian :) and the powersupply was only $79 :) wooo!

[vipor29]

really nice build,i have a dell studio 540 which im gonna be decking it out cuz now that i know i can upgrade pretty much anything in it im gonna be putting my 630 watt power supply in it and probably some other stuff money pending LOL

[MrGamesOfficial]

nicee :) should turn out good!
