Tonite it's time to look at a popular case from Thermaltake. They sent us their Wingo V7000 case which is loaded with nice features and gadgets.
This will be very interesting to see since Thermaltake is known for making high quality products. We will see if this case will hold up to the high quality standard
as their other products we have reviewed.

This is a very nice box that the case came in. Seems to me like Thermaltake has really put alot of effort into the box and the case which is very nice so you get
a good impression overall. This case has a plexi window on one of the sides and it was protected by foam on the inside of the case and a plastic film on the outer side.

We will have a closer look at the front later in this review. There are two large knobs that are fan controllers for the front and the fan is in the back.

No PSU is included with the case so you get to choose one you can afford :) There is an exhaust fan installed in the back of the case.
The right picture is taken on the top of the case. We can see that if you open a lid you get access to a firewire, 2 USB and sound ports.
Behind those we have a grill where the exhaust fan in the top blows out the warm air.

You have the possibility to lock the front of the case but on the left pic you see the door open and it shows that there are five 5.25 slots and 2 floppy slots.
We can open another door in the front which opens up the front of the case and this allows you to easily install drives without opening the side.
On the bottom there is a fan also which sucks in new fresh air into the case, they have equipped the fan grill with a filter to prevent dust from getting into your computer.
