[Level 10 GT] is a revision of the [Level 10] that is meant to be more affordable ($269 MSRP), but still keep the same styling as the original Level 10. This case has a ton of great features. The first is that there are 5 internal hot-swappable bays, each of these bays can fit 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch drives. These bays are easily removed by pressing in a button on the side and sliding them out. This case is designed to be a gaming case so there is a pull out headphone holder, which is perfect for LAN parties.

I'm a little unsure. If you watch the video, it says "Ready for Powerful, High-End Liquid Cooling Systems" And then it shows you the smallest 240 rad that I have ever seen crammed up in the top against a circular hole vent in the top that blocks 1/3 of the rad's surface area.

And tri-color fans? Who are we impressing with those?
I like the headphone hanger, though. (I bet it's plastic)

Hmm, I thought the first one failed? They made a second one?

also no more interesting than a freaking cardboard box, still miles better than thermal take level 10 line.

Coming from an 800D, being priced the same, I think its a bit of a down grade (materials wise - plasticier vs. solid steelier). However, I have seen it in person.

This case is very unique, so an acquired taste, but it truly makes for an enthusiasts case.

Seeing it in person is a real treat the pictures don't truly do it justice.

with a case like this you really have few options for WC and other stuff. Cable management is only good if you only use the components that they intended for you to use in there design no way to venture off or do mods to the case.

I love the lian-li's style of slick and minimalistic, but excellent practicality.

I remember when thermaltake came out with a previous case like this. It looked halfway transformed into a half assed robot. This one, I can see it being put to good use, and I can definitely see a member here doing some cool mods to it.

I can also see someone smashing it with a mallet.

I like the slants on the front end kinda reminds me of a space ship control panel whats so appealing about smooth box with prominent features, think of it this way i like my cases like my cars, i like lines. I just don't like a wad of play doe or in the level ten's case a bunch of boxes and round thing stuck together.

I still like windows and case lights (used moderately)

EDIT: glad to see i'm not the only one and that the rest of you like some design to your cases to the up side is the nzxt can fit some rads it even has the grommets for the lines but, my guess is they might have to mount on the out side of the case.

I don't see management in the level 10 even being existent.

$800 price tag

LOL,say's the owner of an Icute,lol.Although my case is just as bad if not worse,lol,its going soon though,building a PC in a desk for next build.It's a matter of preference,we all like different thing's,that why were all unique.However Lian-Li's really turn me off,all that money for such a bland case.Never buy an Xclio,they perform as bad as it looks and the fans are so brittle.
