Thermaltake launches its 2020 range of performance PC gear

For 20 years Thermaltake has been a leader in PC gear. With an ever-expanding range of cases, components and peripherals, Thermaltake is highly regarded by PC enthusiasts for bringing high quality design and engineering to the gear we rely on. The company has just announced an exciting collection of new hardware that takes this legacy into the future with innovation you can see and appreciate.

Performance first

Cooling is an area where Thermaltake has undisputed expertise. With the new Floe RC CPU and Memory AIO Cooler it breaks new ground, with the world’s first integrated CPU and memory liquid cooler. It’s simple to install and has a closed-loop design for safety and reliability. When used with any compatible Thermaltake TOUGHRAM RC memory kit it provides cool and quiet running for these critical components, and offers outstanding overclocking capability. The 240mm and 360mm Floe RC models will be available at the end of July.

The famous TOUGHRAM range has been expanded with several high-speed kits – perfect for the new generation of CPUs that love fast memory. You can pick up TOUGHRAM RC kits in 3,200MHz, 3,600MHz, 4,000MHz, and 4,400MHz frequencies, in kits of 2x8GB modules. They look beautiful, too, with a classy RGB implementation that you have full control over, and when paired with the Floe RC CPU and Memory AIO Cooler you have a system that looks stunning and runs like a dream. Available at the end of July.

Even more extreme memory performance is there for the taking with Thermaltake’s new TOUGHRAM RGB 4,600MHz 16GB (2x 8GB) kit. It’s built using the latest high-performance Hynix D-die ICs and features a chunky 56g copper cooler for maximum performance and reliability. Choose the black or white edition to set off your build perfectly, and all kits come with 10 addressable LEDs. If you need even more capacity you can get TOUGHRAM RGB in 32GB (2x 16GB) kits at speeds of 3,200MHz, 3,600MHz and 4,000MHz, or go for a massive 64GB (2x 32GB) at 3,200MHz or 3,600MHz – and black or white is available for all TOUGHRAM RGB kits.

Keep it cool

The fans you install need to be dependable, they need to be quiet, and they need to move serious amounts of air. With top speeds of an impressive 2,000RPM, the new Thermaltake TOUGHFAN 12 120mm fan is built with high quality hydraulic bearings and a reinforced metal hub to deliver on all fronts, offering a high static pressure to keep huge volumes of air moving through your case or AIO radiator, while operating in near silence.

DIY builders know the value of good thermal CPU paste, so the launch of Thermaltake’s new Thermal Grease products is great news for this often overlooked area. Thermal Grease TG30 provides an excellent interface between your CPU and its cooler, while the top-end TG50 product delivers maximum thermal performance and suits enthusiasts, overclockers and hardcore gamers. Both Thermal Grease products come with a marvellously useful honeycomb-grid applicator stencil.

A classic in compact form

Thermaltake’s legendary Tower 900 case is a favourite with enthusiasts and system builders, and now the company has introduced a minimised version suitable for mini-ITX systems. The all-new Tower 100 case has 4mm tempered glass across three sides so you can see all your beautiful gear from any angle. The classy good looks are complemented by sturdy engineering offering great airflow, and it can accommodate full-size video cards up to 320mm in length, so there’s no compromising performance. The Tower 100 comes in black and white models, and will be available in September.

Every peripheral has a silver lining

While Thermaltake has you well and truly covered when it comes to your PC and the best gear to install in it, Thermaltake’s new Argent range offers every peripheral you need to game hard and free.

At the top of the range is the Argent K5 RGB Gaming Keyboard. This striking board boasts a rounded aluminium faceplate and floating keycaps, combining performance with durability, while a detachable synthetic leather wrist-rest keeps you comfortable for long gaming sessions. The keys come with either Cherry MX Blue or Silver mechanical switches, and each one is fully backlit by RGB illumination, compatible with Thermaltake’s iTake software.

The Argent M5 RGB Wireless Gaming Mouse is similarly well-lit, but is even more versatile. It features Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity, as well being able to be used while plugged in via a USB Type-C wired charger. Its Omron switches are rated to 50-million clicks and powered by Pixarts’ PWM-3335 optical engine, which is capable of performing at up to 16,000 DPI. Even better, it’s designed for left and right-handed use, and features an RGB-lit metal scroll-wheel. The wired Argent M5 RGB Gaming Mouse is similarly-specced, but is powered by a Pixart PWM-3389 optical engine. The Argent mice and keyboard are available in July.

While your hands are kept busy, the Argent H5 RGB Wireless DTS 7.1 Gaming Headset will entertain your ears! With a pair of 40mm Hi-Res drivers and DTS Headphone X v2.0 surround sound, you’ll be kept fully in command of whatever game you’re playing, while a bi-directional microphone keeps your comms clear and secure. It’s light and comfortable, too, and compatible with all your gaming devices – PC, Xbox One, PS4, Mac, mobile and Nintendo Switch. There’s also a wired version available, which features 50mm Hi-Res drivers for even punchier sound. The wired version is available in August, while the wireless headset will be released in September.

The Argent range is rounded off by a series of space-saving and game-making peripherals, all available in July. The Argent MP1 RGB Gaming Mousepad is anchored to your gaming surface via an aluminium base-plate and a non-slip rubber coating, and features a responsive upper hardtop.
