Thermaltake V9 is steel mid-tower case targeted to gamers and usually when the manufacturer says that a case is targeted to gamers this means a good cooling system: this case has one 230-mm fan on the top panel, one 120-mm fan on the rear and one 120-mm fan on the front, plus the mesh used on the side panels use very big holes. V9 has also four 5 ¼” bays, two external 3 ½” bays and five internal 3 ½” bays, with the 5 ¼” bays and the internal 3 ½” ones featuring a screwless fastening mechanism.
