Plenty of airflow opportunity, Brilliant aesthetic design, Nice black paintjob, Sideaccess HDD slot is a neat idea
Lack of cablerouting, Fans are not controllable (but aren’t too loud if I’m honest)
ThermalTake have once again created a desirable case – the Armor A60 provides good potential for airflow, plenty of room for HDDs and keeps a very good looking, angular style about it. However, it’s a shame to see that ThermalTake have missed out on th...
side mounting system for side panels will prevent wear.USB 3.0 Front Panel, 3.5” drive caddies support 2.5” mounting, CPU Hole in Motherboard tray allowing in place change of back plated CPU Cooler, Great value, highly competitive price point.
Fan Sizes limited to 120mm or 200mm, Not as tool free as some of the competition, No cable management holes in the motherboard tray, No Air filter for bottom and side fan, CPU Cut out may prove too small for some motherboards.
Pricing.The Armor A60 is competitively priced in the U.K. £75.59 and U.S.at ($89.99) about the same as the CM 690 II Advanced and slightly more than the Lancool K58.Overview.The A60 was certainly impressive, it performed well and its features are v...
Great use of colour, Lots of tool-less functionality, Impressive cooling - will take up to 7 fans, Ready for water-cooling
PSU installation fiddly, Lack of rubber for anti-vibration, Lack of SSD support, Backplate cut-out limiting, No space for cable management behind tray, We would like to thank Thermaltake for providing the Armor A60. Discuss this review on our forums
This summer we have seen a real surge in new cases, Thermaltake have been amongst the brands to bring to us the Armor series. The smallest of the Armor variety is the A60. Some may like its looks, some may hate it. Personally I'm right down the middle...
Small CPU cooler installation hole, No cable management holes, Leds can't be turned off
Overall the Armor A60 is a pretty similar case with the A90 we saw earlier. Anyway all the changes between these two models are for the better and especially the sideways hot swap bay is a nice touch. The other differences include sideways HDD bays wi...
The Thermaltake Armor A60 case left me with mixed feelings. On one hand it has high-end features such as USB 3.0 support, an EasySwap HDD design, easy installation, can support up to ten 3.5” drives, plus support for large high-end graphics cards. Howe...
USB 3.0 and eSATA front ports, SideClick EasySwap hard drive dock, Lots of cooling options, Some integrated standoffs, Dual water cooling ports, Tool-less 5.25" and 3.5" hard drive installation
Motherboard tray hole for CPU access does't line up properly with all motherboards, Can't turn off LEDs on fans, USB 3.0 cable hard-wired to front port, Only one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 front port, 2.5" hard drive installation requires screws
The Armor A60 mid-tower case has the quality and features that people expect from Thermaltake. The interior is roomy and will fit almost all modern video cards, with the exceptions being maybe some of the newer ATI cards. The inclusion of USB 3.0, key...
Great looking, Quiet 200mm and 120mm LED fans, Compact in size but with great space inside, Small on the outside, big on the inside, Hot swappable drive bay, USB 3.0 front port, Screwless mechanisms for 5.25" and internal 3.5" drives, Hole in the motherboard tray allows you to access the backplate of the CPU cooler
Thin SECC metal used throughout, No antivibration mechanism for the hard disk drives, Delicate drive bay locking trays
Let's sum up this brief article with some thoughts on the Thermaltake Armor A60 case. First of all, the case has been carefully designed both internally and externally, with the the paint work to be first class belying the budget pricing. There are n...
Thermaltake has an extremely solid case in the Armor A60. The feature rich case is at a perfect pricing point (MSRP $89.99). The addition of the dust filters was a great thing to see in the case as more and more people start to care about the mess ins...
Great design - well ported from the larger A90, Hot-swap bay could be useful, USB 3.0 connectivity, Three fans included, Plenty of space for large CPU coolers, Large opening in mainboard tray for easy access to backplates, Separate trays for hard drives,
Costs more than the A90, USB 3.0 implementation too basic - no adapter for internal connection to USB 2.0, Hot-swap bay still requires tools to use properly, Still the use of bumpers for mainboard installation instead of real spacers, Expansion slot cover
While the Thermaltake A60 manages to impress with the exterior look and well implemented design, it does seem to have a long list of drawbacks. Thermaltake has managed to port the cool and edgy design of the A90 to the A60, but has ignored a lot of the...
