Thermaltake View 22 TG Review: The Verdict
So, after watching the View 22 video you might be asking why I decided to give it the gold award? Well, when you take into account the price, the aesthetics and the quality it totally deserves the award. The price at the time of this review is around £55-60 which puts in the bracket of decent but not expecting the world for your money and Thermaltake delivered; you get a very well engineered case with a unique curved front panel with a tempered glass side panel, and that’s just externally.
Internally, you get a whole host of radiator and fan mounting options which if wanted could fit a whole custom loop with relative ease as well as a well thought out (bar one) hard drive and SSD mounts which can be moved if desired to it easier to install different types of hardware as well.
What’s hot:
- Curved tinted front acrylic panel with a tinted tempered glass side panel.
- Lots of radiator and fan mount options available and you could easily make a custom water cooling loop if wanted.
- Full-length PSU shroud with a clean and tidy cutout for water cooling options.
What’s not:
- Only a single 120mm fan included.
- The curved front panel is unique and some people may be put off by it (or not).
Many thanks to Thermaltake for sending a sample of the View 22 TG in for review.
