If you have never heard of
Thermaltake, it's time to come out of the cave and discover a company that consistently pushes the boundaries of computer components. Since 1999, Thermaltake has been an innovative leader when it comes to items such as cases, power supplies, coolers and other equipment.
The A60 is one of Thermaltake's mid-tower Armor series cases, and there are actually two versions of it... the standard A60 (which is being reviewed) and an AMD edition which has a few slight changes. The Armor A60 has some nice features that help to make it a great case. These features include ample air flow, tool-less drive installation, USB 3.0, and the SideClick EasySwap hard drive bay.
The Thermaltake A60 is shown in the promotional image above, and before we take a closer look at the sample provided for review, let's take a look at some published information taken from the official
