Today, we’ll be taking a look at the Thermaltake CTE E660 MX Hydrangea Blue Mid-Tower Chassis. The chassis supports both all ATX motherboards including the Asus BTF and MSI project Zero reverse-connection motherboards.
It comes with a 4mm tempered glass panel pre-installed on the left side, allowing you to show off the interior configuration of your PC. You also get two interchangeable front panels … a tempered glass for panoramic views and a perforated panel for better air-flow.
The chassis comes with removable filters at the top, front, bottom, rear and right side of the chassis. For storage, you can install up to two 3.5” hard drives in the HDD Cage, and one 3.5″ hard drive or two 2.5” drives on the Drive Plate.
For cooling, you can to install up to 14 x 120mm fans or 12 x 140mm fans, plus there’s room to install an AIO radiator with a maximum size of up to 420mm. This you can placed it at the front, rear or next to the motherboard.
It also includes a 400mm PCIE riser cable and a Floating GPU Bracket for a three-way GPU installation option, something that a lot of other case manufacturers don’t offer.
On the top I/O panel, you get power-on and reset buttons, 2 x USB 3.0 ports, 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, headphone and mic jacks.
The CTE E660 MX offers both great aesthetics and compatibility, and gives users maximum flexibility to customize their setup.
