Thermaltake Introduces V9 Black Edition Mid Tower Gaming Chassis
Thermaltake has dropped a few lines on its home page, announcing its newest mid-tower case with an engine nomenclature. Measuring 462 (H) x 208 (W) x 485 (D) mm, the V9 Black Edition (sounds like an AMG with a supercharger) weights in 6.76kg, has a mesh design and what's more, comes with all-black powder coating including the interior. V9 Black Edition includes two 230mm (800rpm, 15dBA) fans on the side panel and on the top pushing the hot air out from the top. There are two more 120mm (1300rpm, 17dBA) turbo fans placed in front and out the back of the case, front fan also glows in red and can be replaced with a 140mm one. If you're looking for even more cooling, there's a cutout for a small 70x70x10mm fan that can be attached to the back of the motherboard. Inside the case you can put up to 4x 5.25-inch drives and up to 5x 3.5" HDDs, the PSU is bottom mounted and features a dust filter. For more details, please visit this page here. The V9 Black Edition is yet to be priced.

I could see a resemblence on the outside, but the major features on the inside make these completly different birds.
This has side mounted hard drives. Which in my eyes is pointless. It kills airflow to the bottom of the case, and is only good for cable management. "OMG, I can see my sata cables, the earth as we know it is coming to an end"!
This has a bigger side fan. This could be good or bad. I wish it were a bit lower to get better flow, but i'm sure its fine where it is at too.
The black inside is where Antec needs to learn. This is step one for many case modders, because it just looks better. Saves time and manhours on the consumer.
Not to bad though. Yea I can see the inspiration, but thy took the right steps to become different.
Other than that tho it looks pretty good.
What I dont understand is why the companies are so slow to realize that mounting the Hdds above in the DVD rack is superior. And mounting the PS below is a stupid waste of a PS fan.
The fan behind the mobo is a VERY good idea but needs to be lower, there is a lot of heat in the NB/SB area.
Making your own is a lot harder than it seems but entirely worth the effort.
(LOL, that case is an almost exact copy of the 900)
Thermaltake is the only accepted knock-off company that I know of.
