The XT is quite simply massive. It’s easily one of the biggest chassis we’ve had through the office just on the length of it alone. It’ll support huge E-ATX motherboards, but since the motherboard is installed horizontally, the footprint of the chassis needs to be quite large. There’s a huge tempered glass window down the left and right sides too, so you can see right through the whole thing.
The glass is only mildly tinted too, so everything from top to bottom is very exposed. Getting your cable management tidy is going to be essential to a good look build. Of course, you’re going to get a great view of your other hardware too.
The chassis is very well constructed, with durable metal pillars forming the corners. Not only adding strength, but their curved design gives the chassis a less aggressive look. Of course, the fact it’s the size of a small fridge cancels that out a lot, it’s size is intimidating, to say the least.
Thought the window, you can see the motherboard tray is horizontal, with a PSU and storage bay below it. Almost like an open-air testbench in a display case.
The top and side panels are mounted with thumbscrews. These screws mean you can easily open up the chassis, making it very friendly to work with and maintain.
The front panel window is the only place you’ll find a Thermaltake logo, and it’s quite tastefully done too.
The ultra-wide front I/O features five USB ports, including a handy Type-C connector. There’s also the usual power, reset, and audio connections you would expect.
The top panel window provides a top-down view of your system. It really is quite exposed, and I imagine you’ll be reaching for a microfiber cloth to keep that shine dust free.
Around the right, another huge window. From this side, you’ll be able to see more storage bays, as well as your CPU cooler and other hardware.
Around the back, there are eight expansion slots, each fitted with a reusable metal cover.
Two huge cable routing grommets may come in handy for fitting a draining port for any custom-loop water cooling.
While in the base, you’ll find access to the PSU mount, as well as some ventilation for the storage bays.
There’s a lot of ventilation on the base too. A chassis this big, with such extensive cooling support, needs a lot of ventilation. Of course, they’re all covered with clip-in dust filters for clean airflow.
