The Tai-Chi is one of the most expensive cases weve reviewed - 17kg of aluminium doesnt come cheap. The Lian Li PC-767 costs less and oozes quality, something that cant be said of the Tai-Chi, which, despite its prodigious girth, doesnt feel especi...
Solid Chassis, Future proof BTX upgradeable, Very good airflow, Semi ToolFree, Ton of drive bays, Removable motherboard tray, Caster wheels, Automatic door opener, Easy to mount water block, Builtin water cooling system, Nice looking case

Fantastic performance, Exceptionally solid construction, Convection fins on case rock!, FDD/Power button/LED indicator insert, Bezel tray for CDs, tools, whatever, Tool free drive installation with thumb screws, BTX compatible, Screw type water line fitti...
Solid construction also equates to heavy, Not exactly inexpensive at $464, Have to be careful and attentive to water lines to ensure you dont kink them.
As you can see, performance wise, the Thermaltake Tai Chi case performs exceptionally well. I was surprised to see it surpass our Tt Symphony which is one of the more impressive water coolers Ive ever seen. The Tai Chi bested this by almost three d...
