  • Tt LCS Certified
    Tt LCS Certified is a Thermaltake exclusive certification applied to only products that pass the design and hardcore enthusiasts standards that a true LCS chassis should be held to. The Tt LCS certification was created so that we at Thermaltake can designate to all power users which chassis have been tested to be best compatible with extreme liquid cooling configurations to ensure you get the best performance from the best features and fitment.
  • Gull-Wing Window Design
    The enlarged window panel with wraparound design advanced the View 27 visual presentation, that permit users to show off their dedication and skill set unlike any other cases on the market.
  • Tool-Free Installation
    The innovative 3.5" & 2.5" tool-free drive bay design minimizes the hassles of installation and removal, whilst allowing users to freely interchange the hard-drive cages to suit their particular needs. The dual drive bay concept of "2+4" offers a good ration for accessories and storage devices. Power cover design is another unique feature of the View 27. The entire bottom area can be used to reorganize unused cables, which makes for a tidy-looking system.
  • Superior Hardware Support
    The View 27 supports motherboards up to standard ATX, a tower CPU cooler with maximum height 155mm, and a dual expansion slot VGA of up to 410mm in length without front fan. Users can also place the VGA either vertically or horizontally. Moreover, with the modular drive cage design, users can easily mount up to two 3.5"/2.5" or four 2.5" storage devices into the build.

    Thermaltake PCI-e X16 Riser Cable (Optional) - Support a wide range of GPU solutions.
  • Complete Liquid Cooling Solution
    The View 27 has the capability to deliver an outstanding cooling efficiency throughout the entire case. At the front of the case, users can install up to either 360mm DIY liquid cooling radiator, or 360mm AIO liquid cooler, with a long graphic card at the same time. Additionally, a 120mm exhaust fan is preinstalled at the rear to optimize system ventilation. To keep the interior dust free, all intake ventilation holes are specially designed with removable dust filters.

So do I need to PM someone or something? I tried looking to see if the "official" tag was actually official or not but couldn't find any info.

I love the look of the case but I need to fit a 280mm rad inside there.
You can fit up to a 360mm in the front. 140mm fans might fit, but you'd have to do some modding to get them in there in the front. There's no way you're getting a 140mm in the rear though. The 120mm is too tight to even route cables around.

Basically, the riser included on the Core P5/P3 has an extremely high failure rate.
Oh wait, do you mean the cable is not included and must be bought separately?

EDIT: Oh, I see now

My system is still homeless. Anyone who can measure from cpu socket tot side window?
And what about the build quality of the case? I've heard somebody describing it as 'feeling like a tin can.' :O

Hey guys, View27 owner here. Will be returning home from overseas to work on the rig, meanwhile

Would a 15cm PCIE riser cable be long enough for the side view position?

Looked at all the reviews and info, and the pcie card bracket (at the back) distance is 12 cm. wondering if the distance from mobo pcie slot to the card 15cm PCIE riser cable will be long enough.

the generic all purpose Tt riser cable is 20cm in length.

I am not an owner so I can not know for sure, but I think not. If you mean 15cm as full object length (connector + cable + slot) at least.
Looking at see how the TT riser is not really strained, but there is no 5 cm slack left.
Maybe an eBay/Alibaba riser will do the job. They tend to be 19 cm in total. I ordered two to play around with but I don't have this case yet.

Wish I can get someone to cut a piece of string measuring 15cm and see if that will reach.
It might work if you have another PCI-E slot on your motherboard that is a bit lower than the top one. But watch out for performance degradation as those slots are often less than x16.

I started case modding my Kandalf LCS to have the graphics card in front of the window.

You are so smart! I owe you one for that, ill check if anyone has problems running a dedicated gpu off the second slot on my mobo.

Thanks for that again

Tests have been conducted that there is no measurable difference between 16x and 8x slots on the mobo, minimal at best. I personally run mine on the 8x slot due to size constraints. Wish I could find the tests so you didn't have to take my word for it but I'm sure Google will find it.

Hi gang, new here and came across the forum researching my problem.
Anyone have issues with the PCI-E mount on the view27 not fitting the extension cable? I have the Thermaltake PCI-E 3.0 x16 cable, but it does not really fit into the mount unless I bend the mount out a little, and then the locking lever does not function on the slot. Seems like it should fit better.
Thanks in advance for your input!!

**Edit: I think I may have the wrong cable - one has a black clip [pn:*53*] and one has a white clip [pn:*39*].

Mine fits fine with both the standard cable from TT and their premium one. So I have to agree with your thoughts, you have the wrong cable or your bracket is bent.
