Thermaltake view 51, new double compartment box for e

Several manufacturers are presenting their products before CES 2020 and Thermaltake was not going to be less. They are unveiling their new E-ATX compatible PC case called Thermaltake View 51.

Thermaltake presents its new E-ATX View 51 box

Unlike the other models in the series, it abandons the tower format to move to a two-compartment architecture. The result is a 550 x 315 x 525mm E-ATX compliant case with three 4.0mm thick tempered glass panels and a steel chassis.

Physically, we find the View spirit with tempered glass, but the box offers small originalities such as the openings to the right of the glass panel of the facade. The panel is slightly ahead of the fans, so it shouldn't (too much) hinder the air flow. There are by default two 200mm fans on the front panel with a rotation at 600RPM, plus one 120mm at 1000RPM at the rear. All three have addressable and tunable RGB lighting, with the added benefit of a button to switch lights if you decide not to sync anything.

Along the front panel we have two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, a USB Type-C port and sound.

Inside, the motherboard is supported on the left side with a panel of eight PCI mounts, which can be tilted 90 ° to change the direction in which the graphics cards are installed. For storage, several options are possible and will limit cooling depending on the choices made.

In fact, a part of the discs can be placed at the bottom of the box, as well as three 120mm fans with a 360mm radiator could be installed there. The rest of the vent also includes slots along the motherboard, three 120mm fans, plus three more on top.

The processor sink is limited to 175mm, while the graphics cards should be 300mm or 440mm in length, depending on the use of a pump or heatsink along the motherboard.

At the moment, its price is unknown, but it will be at CES 2020 where we will know more details.
