The Thermaltake Ceres 330 TG ARGB Snow is a stylish and functional mid-tower case that boasts a tempered glass side panel, ample cooling options, and a sleek white design. It’s designed to accommodate a wide range of components, including high-end graphics cards and CPU coolers. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now and I’m ready to share my thoughts.
