    Case Layout and Features

    The Thermaltake CTE E600MX is your standard box chassis.  Overall size is similar to any high-end computer case offering a slightly wider profile to accommodate some of the design features.  You will notice that both the left and right vertical panels have a vertical mesh for enhanced ventilation while the side panel is a large piece of tempered glass.

    Flipping the case around exposes the back panel which has the same vertical mesh patterns along with a large opening for a vertically mounted ATX power supply and a small square opening at the top. 

    Most of the mesh panels come with removable filters that mirror the pattern to enable them to remain hidden while also providing a good barrier between your build and the outside environment.

    The top panel contains the front panel controls including a large power button, reset button, two USB 3.0 ports, a single USB Type-C port and 3.5mm analog connections for mic and headphone.

    Removing this panel exposes what we would normally see out the back of any computer case and happens to be a major component of what makes the CTE form factor different from just about anything on the market.

    But, more on that later
