We Find Snow at the Beach, Thermaltake's Level 10 GT Snow Edition - The Box and Goodies

l10-gt03ThermalTake has launched some bold designs (and some rather gaudy ones too). Some of these have been successful while others have received ridicule from the online community and gamers (even coining the phrase “Friends don’t let Friends use ThermalTake” at one point. However, over the last few years they have moved forward with their products and are now putting out some solid work. One of the products that I have been very interested in is the Level 10 series. This new case line-up is less like a PC enclosure and more like a piece of art. Of course the original Level 10 enclosure will also set you back around $750. This price tag puts it out of the reach of most gamers and also off of our RADAR for now. Instead we are going to take a look at the much more reasonably priced Level 10 GT. This uniquely designed PC case comes in two colors (black and white) and will run you $255 and $290 respectively. As we have grown bored of shooting cases in our lab we also decided to move our initial coverage to a different location. With that said, let’s take a look at the Thermaltake Level 10 GT (VN10006W2N) Snow Edition shot on location in Bahia Honda State Park, Florida. Snow at the beach anyone?

 

The Box and Goodies -
The Level 10 GT’s box was not that interesting. In fact, to be perfectly honest it looked a little cheesy.  The picture on the front was not too bad and does give you a good view of the case itself, but the “Snow Edition” was over the top. I get the whole; it’s white and snow is white thing, but to call it the Snow Edition is a little much for me. One item that was welcome to see is the USB3.0 internal connector. This means that if you have a motherboard with an internal header for USB 3.0 you can finally take advantage of this.

The back of the box is more of the same; a large close up image of the Level 1 0 GT with the exact same verbiage as we found on the front. Inside the box the Level 10 GT is protected by the typical Styrofoam end pieces and something extra. Thermaltake wanted to make sure that your $290.00 investment gets to you un-scratched so they put it inside a cloth bag. Once we took the bag off we were given a nice view of the Snow Edition Level 10 GT in all its glory.

Inside the level 10 GT you will find the accessory package. It is a small black cardboard box that has the typical items needed to get you working with the Level 10 GT right away (things like mounting screws and stand-offs, cable ties, and a manual). One thing that I did find fun was the headphones mount that clips to the outside of the case, but we will talk about that later.
