Hardware Secrets and ThinkComputers have posted a review of the new Thermaltake Armor A60, a reasonably-priced mid-tower case with many of the features that you would expect from a higher-end enclosure.

Here's what they had to say:

  • Hardware Secrets:

    "Even though the new Thermaltake Armor A60 is based on the Armor A90, it has a set of features that makes it better than its predecessor. In fact, this is the first time that we see a product with a “lower” model number being better than a product with a “higher” model number. The A90 was originally quoted at USD 90, but since Thermaltake also released the A60 at USD 90, they dropped the price of the A90 to USD 80. We think the new A60 provides a terrific cost/benefit ratio for users that have USD 90 to spend on a computer case."

  • ThinkComputers:

    "The Thermaltake Armor A60 Gaming Mid Tower Chassis offers a lot of new features that we haven’t seen on any other cases. This is the first case that I’ve had to review that has USB 3.0 and/or a hot swappable drive. While I’m sure not a lot of people will use both of those features it’s nice to have a future-proof case that looks great and performs well.

    With the capability of up to 7 fans being installed, plenty of advanced features, and a sweet looking case, this should be a pick for almost anyone. Since this case is new to the market it retails for $89.99, which is at about your mid-range price level for cases. Overall ThinkComputers would like to award the Thermaltake Armor A60 Gaming Mid Tower Chassis a 9 out of 10 score."

Among other things, the excellent cooling capabilities, USB 3.0 ports, and very handy SideClick EasySwap feature combine to create a great case in the Armor A60. The fact that it only retails for $90 makes it even better in own book.
