We really like Thermaltake's Core series of PC cases, particularly the P5, as they allow for a great level of customization and custom water cooling. That said, there are a few things that we don't like about the case.
1. Pesky PCIe riser cable
Installing your graphics card as you normally would in a PC case means you won't encounter this issue, but for those who wish to use the supporting bracket and riser ribbon cable you come across a common problem. The riser cable bundled with the Core P5 sucks, as do the replacements offered by Thermaltake.
I'm not sure if it's an inherent issue with its cabling, or simply a rather large bad batch, but there are numerous reports online about how unreliable it is, some even going as far as to says it's completely unusable with specific cards such as the GTX 1080.
2. Daily rep machine
The Core P5 is heavy — very heavy. Throw in all your PC insides and a 420mm radiator, and you're looking at a case that will test your strength when attending LAN events. However, being heavy also means it's well built, consists of solid materials and won't fall apart.
