- I build a micro atx gaming pc in The Tower 300 from Thermaltake.
I give an overview of the case, then I build in it, showing you the build process.

The only video out of all the thermal take 300 content in youtube that shows how the routing cables would look like.
By far the most relatable video I’ve seen in a long time. Proceeds to destroy the case before starting the build.
Clicked for the case, stayed for the music, so sick!
I know this video is 3 months old but if you're still curious about why thermaltake included the lcd screen bracket.
It's because of minimum quantity manufacturing requirements. The fact that its included says, they don't expect to sell a lot if the screens for this case. So its cheaper to just mass produce the braket with the case. Remember, thermaltake uses the same screen in a bunch of their cases, so that part is also mass produced. But requires a different bracket for each case.
It's also likely that they have loads of those LCD panels sitting in a warehouse, and including a cheap bracket in every case will help to move stock.
Sorry, I geek out over manufacturing and logistics.
Got my build up in the Turquoise version. I freaking LOVE this case! So easy to work in, cable manage and my gpu/cpu temps are excellent.
I'm planning to get this and I like that it fits full size GPUs. I'll pry be keeping it for 10 years like my current old 2013 era cooler master ATX case lol
I'm glad UA-cam sent me here! Thanks for the thorough walkthrough of this case, looks super cool! Can't wait to see what you put together next!
This is exactly the type of video I was looking for, for this case specifically. Very thorough and detailed build video. Thank you!
Planning my first build and just bought this case yesterday. Just found your video and it’s given me so much more confidence! Thank you, such a helpful walkthrough.
Bro this is such an amazing video. I haven’t built a pc since 2017 with the help of a friend and was low key scared to build a new one, this video was so helpful and the commentary is great. Thank you man!
Sexy case! Definitely gonna be my next one. Looks like so much space to put it all together with out getting frustrated. Love it.
Good choice. It's sooo nice to build in.
Same, I was gonna build a ITX case but this is still a reasonable size while being able to fit a 5090 when that comes out. I love how much you can see your hardware.
@@squirrelsinjacket1804 Heck ya man i had the same idea until this case came out.
Thanks for the video. This is one of my favorite cases. I built over 20 PCs in the last 5 years and one of them was in the Tower 100.
This is the case im planning on building my first PC in. I love that you showed cable management in your build video and ran us through that.
If you make it big here on YT, and I am sure you will, please don't change your review style. Authentic up to the possible problems that the user might encounter. I appreciate this review so much. Keep up the good work.
i really appreciate this video, it's actually super informative! i've been looking at getting this case for my first pc build because i loved the shape and the fun colors it comes in, and it's really really helpful to hear your commentary as you're building in it, rather than just a review with shots of the fully built pc.
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for sharing this info. I have an old Thermaltake Core V1 (cube) build and am thinking about using this case for my next build. I like the accessibility of their cases.
Great video, I'd love to get that case. And the music is just right. Thanks!
This video was awesome. I’ve never built a computer before but I learned a lot!
awesome build man. My m-ATX motherboard shows up today and then I'll be building mine as well. Super excited!
You'll have a blast
lol at the dog barking from 01:58 onwards
Thanks for showing what you broek. Hopefully I won't break stuff, thanks to your instructions!
My man!
Great job !! Killer style dude
planning on building a system inside this case
ty for the vid
Awesome build! And nice bladerunner music!
Nice build ! I took the same case, I hope your video help me to build my first pc
I thought this was a ad plant but I really appreciated the raw form with the broken clip and the whoops I bent the side!
This is a nice honest review. No cue cards. I'll be getting this for my ITX MB to replace my Asus Z11.
I like your review. You covered everything and camera shown all parts of the case. i just hope Thermaltake would take into consideration in the future for the plugins of motherboard to be stiil accessible in the top of tower.
What I like about the case is no more gpu sag.
just got mine yellow version with an artic freezer 3 AIO just need a few more parts then time for my new build. Thanks for the vid i will use this to build my own.. Keep up the great work.. i was stuck between this or the h9 flow but i defo think this way sexy
I enjoyed building in both of those cases but I enjoyed the Tower 300 more.
Hey man awesome build! Planning to use the same aio. were you able to use the artic aio as an intake just like in the video aswell? Im a noob and idk if that aio is good out of the box or if I have to unscrew the fans or something.
I am so glad I found this channel! I love building PCs! Keep up the great work! By the way, I enjoyed the futuristic music and commentary! Was that an RGB controller in the back?
It'd a fan/rgb hub that came with tge EK cooler
I fell in love with this case recently. The only things i would've done differently is the orientation of the AIO pump on the CPU with 180 degrees rotation so the hoses would be on top instead of on the bottom. Just to make sure there's no possibility of air staying trapped in the pump and also with that orientation the cables align perfectly with the hole you pulled them through in order to route them to the back of the case. And maybe use custom PSU cables just for the sake of visuals. Oh, i would also love to see how it performs under some stress tests and what temperatures you get. Great video, good luck on your UA-cam journey!
P.S To answer your question, I've built all my PCs and some for my friends as well in the last 20 years, and i love it.
I don't think thats an issue, the air will go to the highest point of the loop the pipe orientation doesn't matter in that regards, so in his case the air will be trapped at the highest part of the rad were the cable is there and not the cpu pump. if you wanted to avoid all possibility you would be better to flip the rad if possible so the air traps at the top of it away from all cables. There would be vary little difference with your suggestion to how his is.
The only thing missing from the video was just stress testing to see the temps but apart from that this was really well done!
Great narration voice and music to this video
Just finished my own build of a Tower 300 case (in white/snow)! I wish I ordered some custom cables as the thick and stiff PSU cables I got from EVGA made this really difficult for me. This also was my first-ever solo PC build… heck of a trial by fire in terms of cables management! lol
I adore the music choice for this build video! Please continue using it! I felt “lost in the depths” of cutting-edge tech! Like something out of the BrayTech facility in Destiny 2! Or maybe Mass Effect! Hahaha
Mass Effect is in my top 2 of all time.
Just built in this case and loved it except for the cords coming out the top is such a pain but once everythints set up its great
Music is good . Gives TRON vibes
I soo love this case now. I havent used a case in a while cause i have thick fingers and its hard to find a case that allows this kind of access. Also, when you do these builds, maybe put them up for purchase, I would buy a build from you.
I put them up for purchase locally in my city. Where are you located?
I fitted an MSI Zero AMD MATX motherboard on it!!!!
Love your builds thank you for sharing I don't mind the music aslong as it's not just music and no commentary and I don't like the music blasting Loud but that's just me but other then that I love your videos
I prefer the look when it is on the horizontal. But still, it is one of the best looking case on the market IMO.
Any reason you installed the rear fan as intake? I Wonder if there's any issues with airflow with that fan mounted on the ssd bracket instead of the fan mounts on the rear panel? TT has a detailed thermal section on their site, it's pretty thorough. They recommend the rear as exhaust. Oh and music was good.
Would you be able to fit an optical drive where the little screen is supposed to be going? I'm guessing it would interfere with the power supply...
I have been thinking about replacing my case which i am using right now the Thermaltake Divider 370 TG which is a beautiful case but i wanted to go with something a bit smaller and different (which is also the reason for the case i am using now which no one really has it) because i am tired of seeing all those NZXT and Lian Li cases and like to go for something unique.
Really nice👍🏼 But the fan at the buttom does not got good. U have to install it under the metal, there are enough room between the power supply and the case ground.
Is it possible to take out the fan bracket that covers the psu under the ram? I saw there a some screws
The presentation, content and music is all very good. I looked for a breakdown of the parts used, maybe I missed it. Only saw someone asking for the same thing. What your thoughts about the peripheral connections at the top? I have heard some negative comments on that. Did you need any extension cables in the build?
Great content Rabryn. Enjoyed the nice chilled out build vibe - sweet! I was sold on the 200 but after seeing your 300 review, I’m a bit torn between the two. Any thoughts? Also my main concern with both cases is access to the GPU IO ports… seems a bit weird how it’s accessed from the enclosed recess at the top of the case - kinda awkward right? - what’s your view on that? Anyway, keep up the amazing work man 🙂
I haven't built in the 200 so I have no opinion on it. Depends if you want a matx or an itx system I suppose. The io port access isn't too bad. It would be annoying if you're constantly plugging things in and out of it
Do you think you'd be able to see the rog thor psu display in this case?
Do you think a shift psu would fit. I noticed there’s extra space to the right.
Can'tsay. Never used a shift psu and don't want to tell you wrong information.
Hmm, intaking air through the radiator doesn't sound good but exhausting it means the only thing drawing fresh air is the GPU and one fan at the bottom, and the back too I guess, but that's a weird airflow. I think air cooler would be preferred on this case, and reverse fans will make it pretty. I dunno, you gotta do some testing on the thermals.
Do you have temps from this build? Curious about building in this case. I'd love to see that. Thanks!
Hey, can you include a part list or a partpicker list please in the discription
Amazing video man, what is the fan controller your using?
It's a hub that came with the EK cooler.
This is a very informative and well structured video. Thanks for covering this case and showing everything in great detail.
However I personally dont like the music and the blue light made it difficult for me to see everything. (thats a me problem though)
i just got a 4080s to find out it doesnt fit in my case lol. does this fit a 4080s? if so ill probably be buying this immediately! how are your thermals with it?
Not sure if you found an answer to your question, but yes, a 4080 Super does fit inside this case, both double and triple fan. Only difference is, with the triple, there is a piece you need to remove in the lower center-left of the case where otherwise the drive would collide. I believe the removal of that particular piece is dedicated for creating room for larger drives. Best used as an intake on the left side of the case for orientation, as Thermaltake suggests.
Great video this is going to be my next case for sure. Will you have enough space for a 360 or 420 aio with the tubes at the bottom? Thanks.
The tubes won't fit from the bottom. Not enough clearance.
that's what I thought. I want to say it will be fine but my ADD kicks in and tells me otherwise...lol I was looking at the EK Nucleus AIO and pictures even show not to mount with the tubes up though many people do it with no concern.@@Renegade_Rabryn
Thank you for the detailed review.
A lot of Music lol
Are you sure you can fit a full sized ATX motherboard or did you mis-speak when you said that? Are there any extra things to consider if I decide to use an ATX mobo? I've upgraded about every part of my prebuilt Alienware Aurora r7 from 2017 and it's basically maxed out now. Would love to try my first custom build in this case at some point in the future.
Must've misspoke. Micro atx for this case. If you want atx, look into the Tower 600
@@Renegade_Rabryn One more thing: you mentioned daisy chained fans momentarily. I want to use the new Noctua fans for this case, do I just daisy chain them or do I need a fan controller hub too? And where do I place the hub at even? I'm confused on how all of that works and what is needed vs. what is supplied. Will daisy chain capability come with the fans? Let me know please. Thanks man.
Why not make the back one exhaust?
I don't know how many computer I have built by now. My first was a 386 about 1993 ish. It's not something I do for a job. I repair clocks and watches so wind up toys.
no thermal paste on the CPU?
Did I see it correctly? it seems that the case is fragile and the door fasteners break easily ?
please comment. Thanks !
Good review. I like your take.
Music in the vid is nice, but I think in this one it's a bit loud, it's competing with your voice at times.
Personally I like lo-fi type music. Use only Royalty free , don't want copy right strikes!!!
The Branding that some of these companies blast on the front of their products is a real turnoff for me... but over all the case is cool looking for a Micro atx. Is this the same case that can lay on its side? Videos Are getting better Bud. Can really tell the effort you are putting in now. Keep it up!
Damn I knew there was something I forgot in this video.... yes, the case can go on its side, but, you need to purchase the stand separately of course 💰 💰
Is that an ATX powersupply or an SFX?
It would be nice if you could create a Discord server for your channel. You'd make an awesome community!
There's an idea. Perhaps one day.
@@Renegade_Rabryn I could help you with the server if you like.
Review the cheap case that phanteks just recently released. Phanteks XT PRO ULTRA
I can't find it in Canada.
Lol. This dude is like my wife. Breaks everything.
5:19 "Now you can fit a AIO up there but it won't fit"
What do you think If I use Air cooler instead of AIO?
Should be fine.
@@Renegade_Rabryn Thank you. Gonna get this case for my next build. Waiting for 5080.
Would a 4090 fit in this case?
If you didn't find out already, yes, a 4090 will fit, both dual and triple fan setups. Triple requires you to remove a panel on the case that would collide with the lower part of the drive, but it seems this piece is tailor made for that situation.
I think they did a good job, but they made one mistake. The top of the motherboard where the cables go, if you have everything on wi-fi connectors that is great if you don't you get to display all your cables which is a big NO NO for me perhaps they will think about it in the tower 400. I would rather go with Tower 200 in this case, tower 200 could be perfect if it fitted 3x 120 or 3x 140 radiator.
Let me be honest. The music is not my favorite. I liked the build video, and the commentary. Can you fit a 280mm AIO were the tubes from the radiator are at the bottom?
I have this case. Are you asking if a 280 rad would fit in the bottom above the psu shroud? Or are you asking if he can run the tubes on a 280 rad coming out of the bottom instead of the top, but still mounted on the side?
There's not enough clearance on the bottom to have the tubes coming from down there.
I love the music.
I like the music, but I'm used to listening to synthwave while working anyways
what type of mother board is needed for this case i mine is way bigger then this
Micro atx
This case is suited for mini ITX and micro ATX builds from what I've read.
Always asking myself how much it would cost to make a case with durable metal clips instead of those flimsy plastic ones.
It wouldn't be much. Or even a more durable plastic ones.
If only there's highend m-atx boards lol
too heavy handed bro, dont blame the company
is this strix 4090?
Strix 4060 💀
I think the video is great, but it would have been better if you had removed the autofocus from the camera. 🤷🏻♂️
is that 4090?
No just a humble 4060
The music here is a good fit, definitely keep doing it
great content. speech audio too low and seemed far whilst background music too loud - just a constructive feedback :)
Yeah, i realized after haha. Thx for watching.
Wanted to watch this but the music was just too loud. Good effort thought.
why does the music feel like you are running away from skycraper levels of tsunami to your spaceship so you can fly away from the planet.
This music could never be as good as interstellar
Corsair power shift is impossible!
disappointed
This guy has no business building PC's. He likes to break stuff lol
Gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet my guy
Cool looking case but you get limited access to the I/O soo it's not really that functional.
Well you asked. No music please, it's distracting.
why is everyone building in this using disgusting stock cables?
