Thermaltake goes green with Core V51 Riing Edition Mid-Tower Chassis for gamers

With the release of Windows 10, many people are looking to not only buy new computers, but build them too. Building a new PC can be a very rewarding experience, as you can pick all of the components and customize it to your liking.

One of the most important parts of any build is the chassis, or case. Not only can the case design impact cooling performance, but it determines the overall aesthetics. Today, Thermaltake announces the all new Core V51 Riing Edition Mid-Tower Chassis. Not only is it beautiful, but its green color scheme makes it unique too.

"The Core V51 Riing is designed in a green color theme with three preinstalled 140mm green Riing fans to aesthetically match other green components while delivering an outstanding cooling performance with the extensive DIY/AIO LCS compatibility. Core V51 Riing Edition is an enthusiast’s grade mid-tower chassis that creates unprecedented space for high-end hardware and liquid cooling expansion, supporting the latest E-ATX, ATX, Micro ATX motherboards, and all high-end GPU cards", says Thermaltake.

The manufacturer further explains, "designed for gamers, the perforated top panel allows easy heat dissipation and rapid air intake for maximum ventilation. The heightened case-stands at the bottom help to enhance airflow and overall stability during operation. The featured green window on the side offers a direct view of the inner system".

The case is absolutely gorgeous to me, but I am sure the green color will be very polarizing. Some of my fellow BetaNews colleagues said it was not appealing. Appearances aside, however, the layout is great, with lots of options for cooling and cable management. The included fans should move a lot of air.

While Thermaltake says it had gamers in mind with the design, it should be a great option for non-gamers too. If you are just looking to build a unique computer for your home, the green will really pop and make a great conversation piece.

Yes, green is often associated with Nvidia, but fans of AMD should have no qualms about embracing the color for their builds too. There is no reason why you can't put a card like the Sapphire Tri-X Radeon R9 FURY 4G HBM in the Core V51 Riing Edition -- it would not be sacrilege.

Price and availability are still not disclosed, so keep an eye on your favorite retailer such as Newegg. In the interim, if you want to learn more, you can check it out here.
