A friend of mine recommended the 10 GT for my next build, and when I saw it on Amazon on sale for $150, I jumped on it.

 

Specs:

 

Case: Thermaltake Level 10 GT

PSU: Corsair Pro Series AX860i

CPU: Intel I7 5930K

MoBo: MSI Gaming 7 X99S

CPU Fan: Noctua NH-D15

GPU: MSI GTX 980

System Disk: Kingston 240GB SSD

Storage Array: Seagate Constellation ES 4TB (Qty 4) in a RAID 10

Memory: 32 GB (4*8 GB) G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 PC4-19200

(This is pre-fan installation, since the Noctua is a giant hunk of aluminum that blocks the view of everything else)

 

So far, I'm loving it.  The case is super quiet, and the amount of room in the case made installation super easy.

 

That said, I have encountered one issue: my power button doesn't work.  It seems to be a mechanical issue, as the button can be depressed but doesn't spring back.  Has anyone else had an issue with the power button on the 10 GT?  Is there any good way to get into the case and see if it can be fixed?

Just finished building my Thermaltake GT Snow and when it boots up it loses SSD or WD. I pull out the trays and push them back in. Sometimes they register. Very annoying. Getting ready to bypass the swappable design and plug drives directly to plug. Anyone have solution?

Just wanted to check in on this, so that other Level 10 GT users would be aware. When I use the front panel headphone jack from the case, I had major interference from the entire system.

I am running the following:
Processor: Intel Core I7-6700K @ 4GHz
Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H90
Motherboard: MSI Z170A XPower Gaming Titanium Edition
RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB DDR4 24000 (CMD16GX4M2B3000C15)
PSU: Corsair HX850 850W 80PLUS
GPU: MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4G LE
Sound: SB Recon3D Fatal1ty Pro
Optical: Samsung SH-222BB/BEBE
HDD0: OCZ Trion 150 SSD
HDD1: WD Velociraptor 300
HDD2: WD Raptor 150
HDD3: Seagate 1TB
HDD4: Seagate 1TB
OS: Windows 10 Pro 1607
Case: Thermaltake Level 10 GT (best case ever)
Battery Backup: APC 1500VA LCD

I plugged the correct front panel audio connector into the SB sound card. If I used the headset on the front panel I would hear my mouse moving. I would hear the GPU cycles, CPU cycles... it as very audible, but livable if I was gaming. If I plugged in my mouse and keyboard on the front panel, the noise would amplify ten-fold.

Since I recently had to take a part my system for a rebuild, I checked out some resources online and found this:
https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/article-fix-front-panel-audio-emi-noise.187276/

This fix worked like a charm! It's like I have a whole new sound system! :) Everything is so CLEAR!!!! I hear things I've never heard before!

Hopefully this will help some folks in the future.

My front fan started dying earlier this year and finally died last week. Doesn't appear that thermaltake has a replacement when I asked if that part was still available when it was starting to die. I found the AeroCool Silent Master 200mm (EN55642) and bought it so I could test fit it when the fan finished going. Well fan finished itself off so I finally got around to installing the fan I found, and it fits. You'll just need longer screws than the OE fan was held in with, and a motherboard with an open 3 pin, or just run it full speed off a 12V molex. It does have Blue LEDs and of course they are not controlled by the controller. Can cut the LED leads if you just what it off.  I'm not going to say this is some high-quality fan, in fact I bought a couple so I'd have a spare on hand. It does fit though and finding a thin 200mm has not been very easy.  While working on the PC the 5x3TB drives were replaced with 3X6TB drives, using less power and can have online spares in drive tray.

 

Also looks like there is a red version (EN55659)

I still have my Level 10 GT from 11 yrs now. I'm planning to change my CPU and mobo to a Ryzen 9 5900X unit with a Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black on it. I know the Noctua can easily handle the temps of the CPU, provided I don't OC it too much, but I have some concerns about the air flow in the case.

Will the stock 200 mm fans have sufficient flow to drain enough hot air from the CPU cooler ? I know the Noctua does a good job in this particular application, but it has to have enough flow from the case fans. I might buy a Corsair case, BTW, but I don't want to leave my Level 10 GT so quick 😅.

Thanks in advance for your advices 😉

There is no way your real... your stupid fine if your profile pic isn't fake.

 

As for your question, I use top exhaust from my CPU AIO using two 120mm fans through a radiator. The rest of my fans are a 120mm on the rear grate and the 240mm stock front fan. Both are intake and I never seem to have any temp issues.
