thermaltake level 20 gt rgb plusa

   PC cases and more specifically towers may not have changed radically in terms of design over the years (there have been a few exceptions however) but manufacturers keep finding new ways to make them more appealing to consumers (especially gamers) and RGB LED fans with RGB LED strips and tempered glass panels are the latest trend to hit the market. As a matter of fact you will have a really hard time finding a new PC tower that doesn't feature at least one tempered glass panel and to be honest I’ve always looked forward to a time where panels made out of plexi would be replaced with something better so that in my book is not a bad thing. Thermaltake recently released one of the best full towers to ever reach our lab the View 91 TG RGB and before we even had the chance to put it back in its box we received the brand new Level 20 GT RGB Plus Full tower which is what today's review is all about.


   The beginning of every myth and legend is about dreams and desire: the challenging, creative and combative features of Thermaltake Group create an exciting and fascinating user experience to share with everyone, while allowing users to enter a selfless state in terms of function and potential. Thermaltake Group's 3 main brands: Thermaltake, Tt eSPORTS and LUXA2 have been merchandising throughout the world, and have successfully established 6 business footholds in areas such as Europe, America, Oceania, Japan and China, with 95 regional distributors and over 4000 premium retailers. All product planning is orientated by observation of global PC peripheral market and understanding of consumer demands. Thermaltake creates direct contact opportunities with resellers and consumers by participating major global ICT exhibitions and trade shows every year, and develop innovative marketing strategies for the promotions of new products. Meanwhile, Thermaltake incorporates the composite marketing system by making branch offices and regional distributors both the distribution channel and technical support or service center to provide instant support; by maintaining close contact with end users, we manage to strengthen corporate competitiveness and create the momentum for the growth of accomplishments. With its outstanding wisdom and strength Thermaltake Group is recruiting creative talents to build a cultural brand for the enjoyment of entertainment, e-Sports, technology and lifestyle!


   As the name clearly states the brand new Level 20 GT RGB Plus Full Tower is the successor to the award winning Level 10 GT which i reviewed many years ago (2011 if i recall correctly) and although it's not quite as large as the View 91 TG RGB it's actually equally as impressive. Thermaltake also released their newest flagship model called the Level 20 which again as the name clearly states is the successor to their flagship Level 10 model which ended up on my desk after i reviewed it back in 2010 (still is in my opinion one of the most impressive and unique looking towers to date). Coming back to the Level 20 GT RGB Plus it's a large 20.1Kg heavy full tower that features support for up to E-ATX sized mainboards, total of four 5mm thick tempered glass panels (front/top/left/right), swing door design, lockable side doors, air-filters (front/top/bottom), removable fan/radiator mount bracket, 3 Riing PLUS RGB fans (2x200mm/1000RPM/117.96CFM/1.68mmH2O/29.2dBA - 1x140mm/1400RPM/63.19CFM/1.53mm-H2O/27.2dBA), rotational PCI-E bracket system (vertical and horizontal GPU placement), two removable drive cages, vertical drive mounts and even a USB 3.1 type-C connector. Interior space is of course nowhere near that of the View 91 TG RGB but it's still quite ample with enough room for up to eleven 2.5" and/or seven 3.5" drive and one 2.5” drive, nine 120mm fans (7x140mm/4x200mm) and/or 3 radiators (240/280/400/420mm), 200mm tall CPU coolers, 310mm long graphics cards (410mm without the HDD cage) and 220mm long power supply units. What do you all think, interesting enough?
