Thermaltake V9 Black Edition Exploded View

   Thermaltake needs no introduction to the readers of VH. We've been reviewing their products for many years and they've always left us satisfied by showing a good effort in attempting to move forward the thinking of the computer user. They've continually brought innovative products to market and introduced millions of "everyday joe's" to high quality aftermarket overclocking and cooling products. They've helped take the underground world of LED mods and excessively cooled chassis` to the mainstream user. And in today's market, mainstream = lots of product sold = big $$$. Thermaltake has mastered the art of market penetration and brand recognition. Let's move on to check out the specs on their new V9 Black Edition Chassis.

   It's the usual fanfare with this chassis as it pertains to the packaging. The V9 Black was protected inside the shipping box just fine as I received it without incident or damage. One nice touch is the inclusion of a small Thermaltake sticker for your collection. Smart marketing; get your name shown any and every where possible.
