Hi guys, after ordering the V21 I was on the hunt for a fan controller/lcd media display for the front bay. as its a desktop pc, I thought it would make sense to incorporate an lcd display ( the dremel is coming out, I am gonna use that 5.25 inch hole on the case to mount a 5.25 inch LCD, so the front panel will need to be cut, unless you guys release a new front panel with a 5.25 inch bay and mounting kit ) like the iMon VDF, the Antec Veris or even Thermaltakes own MediaLab, (all those rely on custom media software ) however, on trying to track down these bay expansions, it seems that both iMON and the MediaLab are both discontinued,  and the Antec was very expensive and stock also shaky, years ago these expansions were very popular, but now it seems, not, it would be ace to see a unit incorporate both media and cooling, like the nMEDIAPC PRO LCD series, which are only $35-$40, although they are not fan controllers, just temp and fan speed read outs, and I am sure the reason most of all the other LCD media bays were discontinued was because of the software, no one wanted to use it, however, the idea of a front panel lcd display that shows all your system information has well as media information really appeals, and I am sure if ThermalTake came back into this market, it would be something really special, being able to incorporate your cooling knowledge into the product, imagine a unit like the nMEDIAPC lcd, but it also has a remote control like the MEDIALAD (A simple RF board) and a basic 4 fan controller built in, which you could control with the remote, now that would be something, for the moment, hopefully I can track down a UK supplier for nMEDIAPC and its very rare front panel LCD displays. (theres no way one of those cheap aero touch controllers is going near my V21)

so, all the stuff is in, the 4 fan controller, carbon fibre and the crazy led eq, let the modding commence !
 
having lived with the case for a few weeks, I am very impressed, I paid just £50, and although its the most iv ever spent on a case, I think I got a bargain, temps are excellent, and the dust filtration means my pc has never been  this clean, or quiet

tahiti may run a bit hot, but its stonking value for money,  and in a decent thermaltake case, makes sense.

Wow that's a pretty good card for that price, i'm also currently using the same architecture as you with the 280x's (Powercolor) 
its one crazy heater this card lol

with v sync disabled it hits 35-90fps with fraps enabled, thats stonking performance from a card that you can pick up for as little as £80

Nice games, i like to switch my games around too or else i get bored too.. your right games these days is all grind grind grind 
 
Anyway seems like its going to be a great build, excited to see the result

Nice review

case came today, so transfered my current rig over, idle temp on gpu went from 65+ to 40, waiting on the rest of the kit to turn up and i will start modding, will post pictures soon

LED PANEL FOR V21

I will need to try and wire this into the system somehow, its powered by batteries, so gonna have to wire it upto the psu

someone left you a wee review lads   http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thermaltake-Core-Matx-Mesh-Stackable/dp/B00PN4WWH2/ref=cm_cr-mr-title

In Progress, PUNISHER V 2.0

Just a little something to tease you all with.  I just set up AMD Eyefinity across 3 24" Acer monitors, it's quite stunning to say the least.  Now I just need to finish my desk build this weekend to show it in all of it's glory.
 

I have modded just about everything in and on this build.  If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
 

would love to see a carbon fiber V21, looking forward to seeing the complete build.
What games will you be playing?

Looks like a nice AMD system! cant wait to see some pics

the hole for a 5.25 inch drive bay is there on the case, its just there are no mounting brackets or a hole in the front panel for it, the dremel might have to come out for this one

I can easily buy a front bay mounting kit, im sure I saw some on Ebay, the front panel would need to be cut, im sure my dremel skills is upto the task, im defo excited by the possibilities

Welcome to the forums DJMACRAE,
 
Thanks for your support, recently we've been heading in a different direction and wanted to eliminate various restrictions for our users when building
We are glad that you liked what we came up with! 
BTW that's a great idea with the Core V21, ill pass it to our team
 
P.S if you have time feel free to post up your build, i know the community would love to see it

Thanks for the feedback. It's great to read that the new direction is well perceived by our users.
The Core X2 will be available in the UK at SCAN Computers by the end of January, by the way
