Thermaltake Matrix VX All Aluminum Case Review

Intro & Specs

Thermaltake Technology Co. was established in 1999 and is one of the most recognizable names when looking for a cooling, power supply, or case solution. They are well known for creating stylish yet functional computer equipment to meet anyone?s requirements and budget.

Today we will be looking at one of the newest cases Thermaltake has come out with, the Matrix VX. The message on the box says, ?Light as a Feather Solid as a Rock?, and this case is very light. The all aluminum construction has this case weighing just 3.8Kg, or 8.4Lbs. I swear my power supply weighs more then this case does. The Matrix VX is available with or without a side window and in two colors, silver or black. The case we received is model VD3000SWA, which is the silver case that has the optional side window.

Let’s take a look at the standard specifications of the case. Then we will dig deeper and see if this case is on par with Thermaltake?s reputation of making great products.
