With black computer chassis and hardware in style, Thermaltake has started a new category of products called the “Snow Edition” in an attempt to stand out from the crowd. These products come mainly with a white color scheme. This time around we’re checking out Thermaltake’s Armor Revo Snow Edition Gaming chassis.
IntroductionBack in the 90s, we saw plenty of white desktop chassis, but as color styles and system requirements shifted, manufacturers started bringing black and silver chassis to the market.… Read More (http://www.bjorn3d.com/2012/11/thermaltake-armor-snow-edition-chassis/)

Hmmm white cases.. Saw white cases in real life and if you don't clean them well... they look awful!
every dust and dirt is so obvious.. I'd prefer if that is red :D

I remember years ago when all you could buy were white cases. Strange how they're making a comeback in the last few years.

I love white cases as white is my favorite color, too bad they cost around 20$+ from the black cases now, as like you said back in the day all you could buy Were white.

Also Najiro, thats the point of Wet naps =P

The earlier cases were not really white. They tended to be more of an darker off-white. When the black cases came into style/mainstream, it was extremely difficult to any newer cd/dvd drive to match the older cases. Now you have the opposite. There are only a slim selection of current dvd/blu ray drives with white bezel. Thermaltake had three options when making the snow edition: use a door to cover a white bay area, make the bay area black, or include several white bezel from drives. The black and white combination adds to the appeal of the case, though I would skipped the blue.

actually i like the black version, i don't like the white case because my home is near a road, Lorries, cars, bike running all the day. So it's hard to keep my case be clean.

Yeah one thing I hate about white cases is fingerprints - you have to wipe down your case about once every few days if you want to keep it real nice. Then again, if you're not picking it up a lot, there's really no cause of having fingerprints on the case.

I really like the phrase that the author used "an attempt to stand out from the crowd", which describes Thermaltake perfectly, lol. Example: http://thermaltakeusa.com/Product.aspx?S=1341&ID=2039]Thermaltake Level 10 GT (http://[/COLOR)

I like so much this case! I'm getting bored of black cases. My current chassis is metal colour...gray.....but the bad thing is that it's so HEAVY! Today I took it many times to open it and check things...:(...what a back pain!

I don't think you'll really find Thermaltake Chassis(es) in general to be very light.

Some new White cases are attractive but just aren't for me. Too much of dust in my work place because my system is near the window.


Im not exactly a thermaltak fan, but I only like one case from their entire lineup. This isn't it . I do however like the bitfenix prodigy in white. It looks really good.

Ahaha like they say history repeats itself. Such a strange phenomenon.

Huh. Another Prodigy fan. It seems like everyone loves the Prodigy nowadays - it's a slick case, I'll give it that.

Yeah its got some sort of a Mac look in white. Really looks neat. I'm more of a bitfenix fan overall. They're a new brand, but great enclosures :-)

Nice! Who did you win it from? Thermaltake? But yeah winning contests on Facebook always takes a while to actually get your stuff.

Is it international shipping? Customs adds a significant amount of time.
