Thermaltake launches yet another mid-tower with wooden accents

Hot on the heels of its wood-accented View 270 Plus WS, Thermaltake has unveiled another new case featuring a touch of natural material, the S370 WS. Unlike the previous release, which was a refresh of an existing model, this is a brand-new chassis design, featuring vertical wood slats on a high-airflow mesh front panel.

The S370 WS is a fairly large mid-tower with a sleek yet stylish design available in black and white. Vertical wood strips flank the mesh front panel, and the case itself is elevated on high feet, creating a large air gap underneath for bottom intake. One potentially divisive design choice is the placement of the front I/O ports, which are located at the very bottom of the front panel. This may be ideal for users who place their PC on their desk, but it could be awkward for those with floor-based setups.

Internally, the case is spacious, accommodating up to an E-ATX motherboard and 6x storage drives (4x 3.5″ + 2x 2.5″ or 1x 3.5W + 5x 2.5″). It's also fully compatible with modern back-connect motherboards for an ultra-clean build, but using one will render the 2x 3.5-inch drive bays unusable. There's plenty of clearance for high-end components, with support for GPUs up to 410 mm long and CPU air coolers up to 175 mm tall. The PCI brackets can also be rotated for vertical GPU mounting.

Cooling is clearly a priority, with four of Thermaltake's CT120 fans included right out of the box (three front, one rear). Additionally, there's space for five more 140/120 mm fans. For those looking to build a custom loop or use an AIO liquid cooler, the S370 WS can accommodate two 360 mm radiators simultaneously, one at the front and one at the top. The Thermaltake S370 WS is already available at some European retailers for €120.

KitGuru says: The wooden accent trend strikes once again, but on the S370 WS, it does so in a more conservative manner. Would you prefer a bit more of it or no wood at all?
