HIGHLIGHT REVIEW

Thermaltake Displays New Cases,  PSUs, Cooling and Peripherals – CES 2014 @ Technology X

Yesterday had us visiting Thermaltake’s display in a private suite in one of Vegas’s finer hotels.  Some companies prefer to conduct their CES business away from the hubbub, hoopla, and mobs of the Convention Center halls, and this is the route that Thermaltake prefers to take.  Those of us in the tech press appreciate companies that make it easier for us to see their products this way, and also enables some quality one-on-one conversations and discussions of the products and their features. We were also privileged to be in attendance at the Newegg Eggies awards in the evening, where Thermaltake received a well-deserved Eggie for Eggcellence.
