As if to offer consumers something else to look at besides tablets, Thermaltake stepped forward, in a sense, and presented its latest PC enclosure for the entry-level market that is, nonetheless, fairly spacious.

Whenever gamers and enthusiasts want to build a new PC, they make a point of not just getting the best hardware, but also a chassis that can look the part.

That being said, Thermaltake has its fair share of models with LED light, special fans, intricate insides and many sorts of visual embellishments.

Turns out, however, that its most recent move consisted of not something of that exact sort, but of a more unassuming model.

More specifically, Thermaltake created what can qualify as an entry-level case, even though its overall looks are not totally bereft of aesthetic enhancements.

More specifically, not only is there a window on the side panel, but there is a vent next to it, as there are two on the top. Mesh panels exist on the front as well.

That said, the newcomer bears the name of Commander MS-I and should already be up for order at for €39.13 Euro or 41.83 Euro, depending on whether or not one wants USB 3.0 connectivity.

As for what the product actually has to offer, Thermaltake made sure there was enough room on the inside to fit video cards with a length of up to 320mm.

A pair of USB 2.0 ports exist on the front I/O panel, unless the one with an USB 3.0 port is the version chosen. MIC and speaker connectors exist as well.

Meanwhile, the mid-tower is fashioned with a washable dust filter at the bottom (for the PSU fan), five 3.5-inch drive bays, one 2.5-inch bay and a blue LED-lit exhaust fan with a diameter of 120mm and a rotary speed of 1,000 RPM, plus a sound output of 16 dBA.

All the above, along with seven expansion slots are made to fit inside a frame of 484 x 202 x 426 mm and weighing 4.5kg.
