The CTE T500 TG ARGB Full Tower Chassis introduces Thermaltake’s innovative CTE (Centralized Thermal Efficiency) design—featuring a 90°-rotated motherboard tray that positions CPU and GPU closer to fresh airflow channels for superior cooling efficiency. It ships with three high-performance 140 mm CT140 ARGB PWM fans (1 front intake, 1 top exhaust, 1 rear intake) and can accommodate up to eleven total fans—or dual-radiator setups (420 mm front + 360 mm rear).
Dual 4 mm tempered glass panels on the front and left allow a stunning showcase of installed components and lighting effects. The spacious interior provides up to 385 mm of GPU clearance, 195 mm height for air coolers, and 180 mm length for power supplies. It supports E‑ATX motherboards (12″×13″) and offers versatile storage options (4× 3.5″ + 6× 2.5″ bays), seven expansion slots, removable dust filters on all vents, and convenient I/O with USB‑A, USB‑C, and audio ports.
Designed for airflow optimization, aesthetics, and expandability—whether running air-cooled, AIO, or custom liquid loops—the CTE T500 TG ARGB is ideal for enthusiasts building premium, high-performance systems with advanced cooling and display needs.
