Thermaltake Retro 360 TG, Retro On The Front, Tempered Glass On The Side
It’s Not A Mullet, Really!
Thermaltake have taken a modern budget case and attached a very retro looking front panel to it, giving the Retro 360 TG a unique design. We’ve seen a few retro designs from SilverStone and Thermaltake seems to have followed their lead to an extent. The picture does reveal a downside to the Retro 360 TG, that 5.25″ floppy bay is a fake! It is actually a placeholder for the optional 6” LCD screen kit you can install which gives you real time info on your system. Installing an LCD feels inconsistent with the design, a working optical drive slot would be far more appropriate.
The Retro 360 TG ships with two 120mm fans in the front and back, which you can increase to two 120/140mm in the front, three of the same on the top as well as three more 120mm fans on both the side and the PSU shroud. The 360 in the name also indicates you can go with up to a 360mm radiator on the top as well. KitGuru liked the case overall, especially as it sells for £80.
There isn’t an MSRP listed for North America yet, but one suspects the US$999,999.00 that comes up on Google might be a bit off.
On the one hand the front panel gives the impression this case dates from 1990, but on the other hand you look through the huge glass panel and see a conventional budget case that accommodates a 360mm liquid cooler in the roof or the side.
