Thermaltake Matrix VX VD3000 Chassis

There are only a select few PC enthusiasts who like to show off their hardware more than gamers do. With all the questing, spying, and fragging going on, they still find the time to appreciate the machine that grants them such pleasure. As you know though, these days, any old box just won't do. No; something a little flashier than the mundane is needed, especially if you're headed to a big LAN Party. While we've reviewed some great cases over the years here at HotHardware, producing a case that receives a gamer's approval has it's own set of special requirements. At the very least, it needs to look cool, and a single intake fan at the front isn't going to cut it. Adequate cooling, a good layout, and a unique aesthetic is a good start, and adding a clear side panel or other flashy features will only sweeten the deal. And for the LAN fans out there, a lightweight case is a must, of course.

Which brings us to Thermaltake's latest case, the Matrix VX VD3000. Proud of its purpose, it's advertised right on the box as being "Perfect for Lan Parties". After some close inspection, you'll see what they mean. Before we get ahead of ourselves though, lets check out the details on this bad boy...
