Thermaltake Mozart TX Cube Tower Case Review - Page 2

Thomtom · March 1st, 2008

Ok the case looks cool but OMG its just too big!!

I would need to take my sofa out of he room to use that.

But on the plus side your all ready for water cooling.

As for lugging it around NO THANKS!!

yes it is a large case, barely fits under my custom built desk.. but its got room to spare for anything I can throw at it.

Nice review. The thing about this case that intrigues me is the inclusion of the mini-ITX.

Now ... what would I need that for? [I'm sure they had real plans behind that]

I do like the idea of having a double MOBO enthusiast case with Dual Power supplies ... I doubt they are out there however.

this one has the optional power supply that fits in the 5.25" spot to power the mini-ATX board which gives you the dual power supplies... now for a true dual PSU setup, you will need to look into the server side of things and many times they run on 220V instead of 110V.

I know what I want the mini ITX board for - another folding PC! Think about it - 2 folders in one case!

there ya go Occifer!!!
Another option some people have stated is a server setup or with a decent miniboard and proc, a WHS setup, all in one case. Theres enough room for disc and hard drives in there plus a water cooling setup for the main system.

I saw a mod where someone built a full system in a case, then threw in a mini-ITX board and an 8" LCD built into the case just to run as another computer in the same system. Pretty nifty, but I suppose you would need a KVM switch or two keyboards and mice to make it very usable.

Thats where a server setup would come in handy, set it and forget it and no need to hook anything up since you could VPN/RDC/VNC into it, only need the one external wire for the network connection.
