Thermaltake Suppressor F51 Tower Case Review

[section_title title=Conclusion]

Conclusion

My only problem during the testing and building phase comes from a reviewer standpoint, and that is, I couldn’t find a problem! No matter how hard I have tried to find a fault, any fault, I can’t. I can’t even mark it down for the power button issue since it’s covered by warranty for 2 years and it might just be my review unit anyway. It’s incredibly difficult to write a review when you have nothing negative to say – it just comes away looking like an advert and people question your objectivity, but I really do have nothing bad I can tell you about. I can’t even complain about the price, and if you’re in the US there’s a cracking discount to be had at the moment making it even better value.

The ThermalTake Suppressor F51 simply works well for me as a user who has multiple drives and expects more in the future. It works as someone using air to test but will be moving to AIO after testing (oh yeah, Tt are NOT getting this back from me, sorry!). It works as someone who has never tried a full loop system but wants to in the future as I now have enough space to play with.

All the small touches are right with this case. The steel panels are thick enough that there is no wobble, and there are no sharp edges anywhere so you don’t have to worry about slicing your wrists open accidentally. The grommets are in the right places and the support bar for the GPU was a nice touch and raised it off the base. The feet are tall and raise the case off the carpet giving plenty of clearance for more fans or radiators to be used. The list doesn’t stop there, that little button to remove and replace the ODD blanking plates is something nice to see and I could go on and on, but I’m sure you get the idea.

People may question its origin after the drama earlier this year, but if all you really care about is whether or not the case is right for you and you don’t want to go into the politics then this has to be top of your ‘big case’ shopping list. It’s well designed, well engineered, well finished and well, pretty much excellent.

The ThermalTake Suppressor F51 comes away from this review with flying colours, taking our Recommended Award and Platinum Award with ease due to it’s top marks in all areas and exceeding our expectations across the board while still managing to keep the cost below £85 or $116 depending on which side of the Atlantic you are sitting.

Thank you Thermaltake for sending in this review sample.
