    Introduction

    I quickly popped in to see what Thermaltake was doing and unlike in previous years there were basically two things on display.  Big ass cases and watercooling stuff.

    The cases are extremely large, (think mountain mods case size) and completely modular in that they can pretty much be assembled any way you want. 

    Despite the size most of these boxes housed a Micro ATX motherboard with the rest of the space being filled with watercooling gear.

    Speaking of watercooling gear, check out this table of radiators.  Just about any size you can imagine from short and fat to tall and skinny.  Funny thing is Thermaltake has always done watercooling and for YEARS, (yes literal years) I would continually ask to review one of their kits with no avail.  Of course now it seems they are going to attack the DIY market for watercooling with their own brand of cooling gear.

    I wish them the best of luck.  Considering they couldn’t afford to send me a Big Water back when watercooling was cool I kinda doubt their new venture will pay off the way they want.    Then again I overheard them admit they are a company that samples great things in the market and tweaks a few things to make them better. 

    That statement explains a lot, cause, history.
