The case supports horizontal, vertical, and wall-mounted orientations. This tri-layout support makes it ideal for users looking to display their system either on a desk or as part of a wall-mounted showcase setup.
Exceptional Cooling Potential
Cooling is at the heart of the Core P3’s design. With generous support for both air and liquid cooling components, this case offers excellent thermal performance.
-
Left Side Fan Mounts: Up to 3 x 120mm or 3 x 140mm fans for efficient air intake or exhaust.
-
Radiator Support: Full-size radiators including 360mm or 420mm, enabling even the most complex custom water loops.
-
Open Frame Airflow: The open structure ensures natural airflow and excellent heat dissipation.
This makes it an ideal case for high-performance CPUs and GPUs that demand active cooling solutions.
Premium Materials and Durability
Constructed with SPCC steel, the Thermaltake Core P3 Tempered Glass Open Frame Case offers solid durability and rigidity. The 5mm thick tempered glass side panel provides a clear, scratch-resistant window into your system. Unlike acrylic panels, this tempered glass offers enhanced safety, improved aesthetics, and lasting transparency.
The robust frame ensures that even with heavy components like full-length GPUs and custom water loops, your build remains securely supported.
