The inside
of the Core V51 is quite big thanks to the fact that the case is almost 60 cm high. The motherboard tray does not feature pre-soldered standoffs and there is a big opening behind the socket, so that you can install aftermarket cooling systems without taking the whole motherboard off. Around the tray, there are three openings for routing cables
and there is a lot of space between the motherboard tray and the right panel. We particularly appreciate the choice made by Thermaltake about the rubber grommets since they are extremely difficult to remove once
the cable is inserted. The HDDs and ODDs can be fitted without any problems, thanks to the tool-less system used by Thermaltake. The company uses modular slides that can be positioned at different heights for 3.5" and 2.5" peripherals. This aspect should be not underestimated because it allows a good management of interior space especially if you want to install radiators
at the front or in the lower part of the case. In addition, even in the
presence of long graphics cards it is possible to place the cage at a
different place/height rather than have to completely remove it.
For our test we used an ATX motherboard with a heatsink of medium size. As you can see from the pictures, the interior space is very good and also the distance from the top to the upper edge of the
graphics card is remarkable. In our opinion, it is possible even to install radiators
at the top in push-pull mode.
