Introduction
What makes a case particularly suitable for a certain type of consumer? Certainly there are the functional considerations: full, mid, or micro tower setup for starters. Will it be used as a home server? Perhaps house a workstation? Home theater? Gaming? Then there are the aesthetic considerations: colour, lighting, metal and plastic, flashy or conservative? And then we can't forget quality of construction. And last, but by no means least, is the price. With so many variables it's no wonder there are hundreds of different cases available on the market to suit just about every possibility.

Thermaltake's Element series of cases is geared to the "professional" consumer. Not exactly sure what that means, but we did examine the Element S and found it to be an excellent mid-tower case. Now Thermaltake has released the Element G, with a bit more flash and features that seem more suited to the gamer market. So does "professional" still apply here? Again, we're not sure. But instead of pondering the philosophical questions that concern the nature of what it means to be professional, how about we grab a drink and take a look at this mid-tower instead? Sounds a bit more fun, don't you think?

We would like to thank our friends at Thermaltake for supplying us with the review sample.


“Since the beginning of Thermaltake in 1999, it has been at the forefront of creating new and exciting products at a time where most computer users were provided little to no choices for components that may seem irrelevant, but are in reality crucial to the performance of a PC. Thermaltake Server Series solutions, with years of thermal experience and industry leadership, sets its goal on reforming total thermal management in the server segment by formulating the perfect mixture of versatility, efficiency and thermal management with each respective server product category: Rackmount Chassis, Server Fixed & Redundant Power Supply and Server CPU Cooling Management Solutions.”
