I’ll start by saying I usually build my own computers, versus buying a pre-built. However, after planning a build in this case and seeing the sale price and components of this pre-built unit, I decided to pull the trigger. Buying these components separately is approximately the same price as the pre-built, with little markup if any. On sale, this is actually cheaper than building it yourself. Impressive.
PC came packaged in a simple but colorful box, inside a larger basic brown one. There was foam on the inside and outside of the PC, and my unit arrived safely and ahead of schedule.
The case used for the build is the Tower 300, which is a unique and colorful case. The entire thing is a tool less design, the aesthetics are wonderful, and there is plenty of ventilation. It has more dust filters than I can count, and every potentially sharp edge has been dulled and rounded. Really no complaints here, knew that going in though. Great case and definitely high readability factor. -The rear I/O is a pain - you have to pop the toolless top off, unscrew two thumbscrews, and lift up a fan bracket to gain access to the rear motherboard I/O. While you hold that up you have to feed the cables through two grommets to finally plug in your keyboard or whatever. It looks brilliant just sitting there and isn’t a big deal if you’re only ever going to pop back there every once in a while but frequent users will be annoyed. Luckily, front I/O is great. The Hydrangea Blue hue of my case is a pretty soft blue that I like a LOT. It kinda looks like a health pack. Or maybe an escape pod. I love seeing it on my desk.
Cable management was done remarkably well and is the definition of professional. Extremely tight and properly routed. Thumbs up.
Part selection is good, not perfect, but not bad. Good attention to detail with a color matched GPU and motherboard. The GPU is a MSI Ventus 2X and the motherboard is an entry-level ASRock board without overclock support — definitely cost-cut components to some extent. The NVMe SSD is Kingston-branded. The PSU is a Thermaltake 850w unit that seems to be a cut above many pre-built units I’ve seen. RAM and 420mm AIO are also Thermaltake units of high quality. With 32GB RAM, 16GB VRAM and 2TB of SSD out of the box, it shouldn’t need upgrades anytime soon.
The default RGB is quite vibrant but is reliant on ASRock Polychrome since the AIO is not supported by TT RGB PLUS. ASRock Polychrome is really unpolished and I recommend switching to SignalRGB, which the components play nicely with. This, alongside the fact that the motherboard did not come from the manufacturer with the critically important BIOS/microcode update to prevent the controversial Intel CPU from ruining itself over time. It is a very easy fix, but one I would have liked to see come from the factory and I RECOMMEND UPDATING YOUR BIOS IMMEDIATELY UPON ARRIVAL. The Ventus 2x does not support power limits over 100% in afterburner which limits its ceiling a good bit. It does however, have an awesome looking white backplate. It runs rather cool and quiet, peeking at 70C in stress tests and idling at an absurdly low 30C. The NVIDIA auto-overlock tool managed a particularly aggressive setting that is very stable — and put the GPU in the 75th percentile for all 4070 Ti Supers, despite the power limit constraints. A testament to the fantastic ventilation. ASpeaking of, the notoriously hot 14700KF also peeks around 70C, and overall I couldn’t be happier with the noise and thermals. It’s not a completely silent PC — but its quiet enough that I doubt anyone is going to ever consider returning it, even for sensitive bedroom environments. The 420mm AIO has no pump noise on quiet, and is kind of overkill for a stock-clock CPU, even if that CPU is one of Intel’s spiciest ever. That 14700KF is a plenty good choice for this build because the case has the cooling for it, but AMD has better socket longevity, better gaming performance, and does not have the microcode controversy that Intel did not handle well for a long time. Still, it’s objectively still one of the best performing CPUs out there so it’s not going to be bottlenecking anything for a long time either.
The SSD does shockingly well in benchmarks. I’m a Samsung loyalist when it comes to NVMe SSDs and I was nervous about this one. Turns out, it’s really no problem here. It absolutely cooked the controversial UserBenchmark test, scoring a perfect 100 percentile 10 straight tests over 5 days.
The Windows 11 install is the cleanest I have ever seen ship from a pre-built in my life. It is literally just drivers and ASRock Polychrome. I was fully prepared to spend a bunch of time cleaning up OEM garbage but there… isn’t any.
Performance is exactly what you expect from the components listed and Thermaltake has not gimped the hardware or used anything proprietary that would make upgrading or changing things difficult. If you’re more of a novice reading this — it’s is a beast and is going to crunch every task thrown at it like it’s nothing. It completely smokes every console and laptop currently available, and is practically top of the line here. This is a technical review but if you aren’t technical, just update the BIOS when you get it and load up games and get playing already.
To sum it up —
PROS:
- Looks amazing! Color matched, bright RGB.
- Relatively high quality parts (incl. PSU).
- Exemplary cable management.
- Ice cold and quiet under load.
- Zero bloatware.
- Standard parts that are easy to upgrade or service.
- Ideal pairing for 1440p, no obvious bottlenecks.
CONS:
- Intel in 2024.
- The BIOS did not come updated. Just because of how severely important this is, I strongly considered giving this product 4 starts instead of 5. I RECOMMEND UPDATING YOUR BIOS IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE LAUNCHING YOUR FIRST GAME.
- ASRock B760M motherboard is spartan.
- GPU has limited headroom for OC.
- Rear I/O access is inconvenient.
- The “25” near the I/O is permanently painted on for the company’s 25th anniversary.
I love this thing and I’m glad I bought it.

Took a chance on this ATX reactor from Thermaltake and it does not dissapoint! I got the Hydrangea Blue which is the 25 year anniversary color and its stunning!! Gen 14 I7 32GB Ram and a MSI RTX 4070 TI super… super easy to customize with the case being moduler. Each panel has 0 screws. Case does come with the LCD bracket if you wanna install the optional LCD screen on the front bottem. Motherboard could be a bit more premium.. They use a ASRock B760M-C. The ram is Thermaltake Toughram 32Gbs DDR5 5600 (2x16GB) with RGB. Its very good and the colors are nice. You can definitely add more if needed. The radiator is also a beefy 360 AIO by Thermaltake with white connections. The Graphics card is made by MSI and its a dual fan card that fits really nice with extra room.. MSI included a white pcie connector for the card if you wanna swap the black cable out you can.. the SSD is by kingston 2TBs abd its very easy to swap out and upgrade if needed. The power supply is a Thermaltake gold 850. The only issue i have with the PSU is that all the cables feed inside the supply. Nothing connects to the back of the psu rather the cords all feed out from a hole on the back right. Some may like this some may not.. the On board I/O you have to pop the top of the case off which is really easy then undo 2 thumbscrews on the fan to raise it up. You will see where to feed your peripherals at and the covers do a good job ay hiding them at the top. Some may or may not like that but i had no issues with it. If you’re the type that likes to switch peripherals alot then it will get annoying having to take those steps to get to the back I\O. Top front I\O has 2 USB type A, 1 type C headphone/mic jacks and the power/reset buttons. Took about 9 days from purchase to my doorstep which was fine. Im all the way in florida and it ships from California. Packaging was very good inside and out. Setup was flawless and windows 11 lets you either setup new or from another windows 11 save point from another pc. I was able to easily sync the new PC from my laptop which is awesome. Did have to update drivers and install some things which is typical. Gaming wise i was able to get 165 FPS on World of warcraft with max settings and some add ons. Probably could get more but my OLED monitor is caped at 165Hz. Will test other games when im free. Overall i do recommend this PC. It does come in other colors and different builds at different price points. Its really a unique case and for me it fits better on the desk then a traditional midsize/fullsize tower.. i will eventually add another 32GBs of ram and another SSD at some point. One other to mention is the back side of the case you can mount more SSDs or hardrives… you can also mount another fan if thats your tea.. I spent a solid 3 months looking at pre builds trying to find something i really liked at im glad i came across this PC.. awesome job Thermaltake on this case and build.!!!

An absolute unit and a powerhouse of a machine. If you are looking for a computer that will turn heads, look no further. I love the white aesthetics that fits in perfectly with my all white desk setup. Runs Overwatch and Apex Legends on max visuals settings on 1440p while maintaining 240FPS. I have no doubt the frames could go higher, but I just locked it to the max refresh rate supported by my monitor. Removable panels and magnetic dust filters make cleaning a breeze. If there is one thing that is a small letdown, I wish the Gen 4 2TB SSD was more high end, so you may want to look into replacing it if productivity and editing is your thing, but this is an overall minor thing. This is such a well rounded system with great components that it was an easy decision to go with this prebuilt and I have no regrets!

I usually build my own PCs, but my wife wanted an upgrade and when I compared prices between this pre-built on sale and building my own, it was actually close to the same price so I decided on this prebuilt. I’ve tried one prebuilt before and that thing was a nightmare. This one however, runs like a dream. Works straight out of the box, even the RAM profile was set correctly. My wife just went straight into gaming and now her PC is faster than mine! This prebuilt has maybe even convinced me to skip out on building a new one and just buying a Thermaltake prebuilt!

Buying pre builds can be sketchy but this is nothing but high quality. Amazing fps on most games at 1440p. Temps never above 60c while gaming. no sketchy no name generic parts. I love it. This thing gets so many compliments.

Really like the system and was happy that it didn't come with any bloatware or extra programs. Not a fan of the ASRock bios or their web support. My only complaint with this system is the way the cables run out the top of the case. You'll need extra long cables to keep your wires organized and I had some issues closing the top fans around the wires and antenna's. The really large case needs a lot of room on your desk but is always sweet to look at. So far happy purchase.

Unreliable Power Supply and poor port design

I’ve bought 7 of these for work and returned 3 due to power supply issues. The size is great but unfortunately the power supplies are not good. Also, to plug in the HDMI and ether net cords you have to take off the top AND front panel, which is totally insane. I don’t understand why they would not have these ports on the outside of the machine.

This is a fantastic prebuilt pc - especially considering the price. I added the thermaltake kit that lets you mount the pc horizontally. Color matched exactly. My only complaint, and its a small one, is the its fairly easy to move the magnetic dust filter on the back of the case when moving the pc.
As for the buying process...pc arrived 1 day earlier than expected via UPS. Computer was well packaged to prevent damage.
Im very pleased with my purchase. Highly recommend!
