About the Thermaltake CTE T500 TG ARGB Snow Full-Tower Gaming Case (White)
The Thermaltake CTE T500 TG ARGB Snow is a white E-ATX full tower built on Thermaltake’s CTE layout, which rotates the motherboard so the CPU and graphics card sit closer to the cool air coming in. Three CT140 ARGB 140mm fans are pre-installed, two as intakes at the front and rear and one as top exhaust. Two 360mm radiators can be fitted, with up to a 420mm AIO at the front. Inside there is room for a 385 mm graphics card, a 195 mm air cooler and four 3.5″ drives, behind two 4mm tempered glass panels. It suits large, high-end white gaming builds.
