Default Community Review Opportunity

Hey guys,

As of this time this is for North America region only

I am setting up an opportunity for select forum users to get a chance to review new Thermaltake products as an end user.

We love the feedback we get from the great reviewers and the media but we want to give you guys a chance to have a voice in what you think about new products.

We want your help educating your peers and the community about our products and why they are awesome!

If you are interested in reviewing new products from Thermaltake here is your chance.

Here is a basic outline of what we are looking for:

  • HONEST users who will give an honest opinion of the product
  • Detail oriented users who have a knack for putting thoughts into words
  • Enthusiast users who want to check out the latest from Thermaltake
  • UNBIASED users who feel they can provide thorough assessments for their peers
  • Someone who will have fun while assessing the product and make something that will be fun for other forum members to read




The reviews will be checked for ACCURACY ONLY before they are OK'd to post

We WILL NOT filter any bad reviews we will only ask that you correct any misinformation or something that you possibly misunderstood during the assessment.

The product up for review at this moment is **a new Liquid cooling product** from Thermaltake.

If you feel that you can meet these standards then please email our review team at:

MyTake-signup@thermaltakeusa.com

Include the following:

  • Name:
  • Forum Screen name:
  • Communities you would post the review at:
  • Address:
  • Contact phone #:
  • Why you should be chosen to review Thermaltake product:

By signing up you are agreeing to:

  • Provide Review in the form of a forum post in no less than 2 paragraphs detailing the user experience with the product.
  • Provide a list of Pro's and Con's of the product



**Besides forums you can help spread word about this product and your experience via blogs, social media, newegg reviews, Amazon reviews, etc!**

If accepted you will be contacted directly by Thermaltake staff with instructions and introductory information on how to get started.

We want this to be a fun experience for you and all of the readers as well!! So most importantly HAVE FUN!

Here is some review tips:

Anything you write should have both an introduction and a conclusion.

Technical writing normally does not allow the use of pronouns (I, We, You, they) however most reviewers skip this, it is hard to be witty and follow this rule, but it is still doable.

A review consists of both empirical data and subjective observations.

Empirical is the benching that you do, can it handle this load and this ambient temp, in a case or on a test bench. Using dedicated hardware or software to monitor and chart the results. (Excel works really well for chart building)

Subjective means "your opinion." The difficulty level for installation, for instance is going to be different based on your experience level. A novice might find it difficult a pro might not. Use this in comparison with your own experience to create "subjective" points. Obviously these points will vary and why it is important to point out that they are your own opinions.

Appearance/aesthetics falls under opinion, and if you do not have a dedicated decibel meter than noise will as well. With no decibel meter comparing it to say fans you have laying around like yateloons, or deltas or what have you is a good way to convey sound level without a discrete measuring device. (most people do not understand decibels anyway)


Obviously no one person can cover everything at a high level, so try and focus on your strengths high level overclocker.. awesome use that to push the laod capabilities.. nothing really that can push the hardware tested? Focus on features and ease of use. etc

Outlines can help alot to keep your points in the right section. IE not talk about the mounting mechanism in say wPrime testing section lol.

Just some tips, feel free to ignore them
