Matcha Green Mid-Tower with Triple Glass

The Thermaltake CTE E550 TG is an ATX mid-tower case finished in Matcha Green with three tempered glass side panels. It uses a dual-chamber layout that separates the motherboard area from the power supply and drive bays. The design targets builders who want a wide view of their components and clean cable routing. It does not suit buyers who need a compact footprint for small desk spaces.

Installation Notes and Common Issues

No fans are pre-installed so you must supply and mount every fan yourself. The case supports up to six 140 mm fans and three 120 mm fans plus radiators up to 420 mm. Hidden-connector motherboards from ASUS BTF, MSI PROJECT ZERO and GIGABYTE PROJECT STEALTH fit natively; standard ATX boards install normally but leave rear connectors visible. Rotational PCIe slots and a floating VGA bracket allow three graphics card orientations. Builders who prefer a simpler single-chamber build may find the separated cable channels unfamiliar.

Cooling and I/O Limits

Front I/O provides two USB 3.0 Type-A ports one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port and HD audio. Maximum radiator length is 420 mm which caps the size of all-in-one liquid coolers. The dual chamber improves airflow paths but total fan capacity is limited to the listed mounts. Users planning extreme multi-radiator loops or very long graphics cards should verify clearance against the 22 by 10.6 by 20.2 inch exterior dimensions.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the dual-chamber layout is routing airflow correctly after I build in the CTE E550 TG?

Power on the system and verify that intake fans on the front and bottom draw cool air through the main chamber while exhaust fans on the top and rear expel heat from the secondary chamber; temperature deltas of 5–10 °C between chambers indicate proper separation.

Which cooling components are included with the CTE E550 TG Matcha Green and which must I purchase separately?

The case ships with zero pre-installed fans; you must buy up to six 140 mm or three 120 mm fans and any radiators up to 420 mm yourself. All mounting hardware for motherboards, drives and the floating VGA bracket is included.

Which version of the CTE E550 TG should I choose if I need maximum radiator support for a custom loop?

The single Matcha Green model (CA-1Z8-00MEWN-00) already supports radiators up to 420 mm in the top, front or bottom, so no higher-capacity version exists; select this SKU for the full 420 mm clearance.
