Cooler Master Full Tower Desktop Computer Case

[2x 2.5/3.5"
] I purchased this case because of how it looks. When I started my transfer of my computer from my old case (a Cooler Master 692 Advanced) I found that assembling it in this case to be much easier. Cooling is superior and adding AIOs much easier. Overall a great case.

[27.435 lb] I bought this to replace a GL10CS-DB762 Desktop Tower, so far it runs amazingly well. I typically run Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, & Illustrator) along with 3 - 24 HP Monitors while simultaneously streaming YouTube videos, running Microsoft Outlook and multiple Excel Spreadsheets. I have not noticed any slow down in performance running all of these tasks at the same time. I did immediately add a 2nd 1tb SSD Drive ( Model #WDS100T2X0E). My only concern is that they did not provide the screw (neither ASUS nor the HD Manufacturer) to secure the SN850X to the motherboard, fortunately I had one in my computer parts drawer. Other than that, I'm loving the i9 Processor and 32b RAM (2x16gb chips). My last 3 work computers have all been ASUS ROG and I've had amazing success with each one of them. I would highly recommend buying from BH Photo Video, they shipped my computer the same day and it arrived in perfect condition.

[Plastic, Steel] I built my PC with this case as livingroom Home theater and for gaming. CPU: AMD RYZEN 5 7600 GPU: XFX Radeon RX 6700 SPEEDSTER SWFT 309 CORE SSD/RAM: 1TB/16GB Motherboard: Gigabyte A620I AX Mini-ITX AM5 Motherboard Cooler: Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML120L V2  PSU: Cooler Master V850 SFX Gold 850W 80 PLUS Gold Modular SFX OS: Linux (Bazzite OS), Widows 10/11 The case instructions were about as clear as Ikea furniture, but manageable and fun to build. Cable management will take some patience. If using an AMD CPU, disable the default overclocking, as it smelled like PC was melting while running at a contstant 95 degrees, regarless of air cooled or liquid cooled. Overall, I'm very happy with the way it turned out. Performance on Windows 10/11 and Linux (Bazzite OS) is great and very similar, with Windows requiring more upfront time to setup with drivers. Cyberpunk 2077 - Ultra settings, consistently over 100 FPS with FSR 2 enabled at 1080p. 60+ FPS at 1440p. Starflied - Ultra Settings, mostly at 70 FPS with FRS 3 enabled at 1080p. I wouldn't recomment 1440p.

Since the Cooler Master fans were too thick for my Fractal Design case, I tried the Be Quiet Pure Wings 2. They did fit, and I can barely hear them. Decent airflow, and the price point was good. Also the PWM cable is long enough so you don't need extensions.

[140 mm] I installed these three fans in the top of my Cooler Master H500M. They pig tail together nicely to minimize the number of wires and headers needed to control your lighting. They are connected to a splitter in the back side of my case leading to the three pin header on my Asus Z490 E mobo. They sync up nicely with the rest of my fans and lighting using Asus Aura software. I would definitely buy again. I decreased my case temps during gaming by 4-5 degrees celcius.

[7x Full Height] I prefer the more subtle looks of the P400A but couldn’t find it in stock so I tried this. I’m impressed, much better than my last Cooler Master case (airflow-wise), and the looks are growing on me.

[350 TB] I was nagged for this review, which I feel is a despicable practice that needs to end. Making it even worse is I haven't even used the SSD or cooler yet (and, if I'm lucky, I never will). I bought this one for use as a spare SSD so I could quickly replace one of the ones I already have in use if one should ever fail. I bought the combo because it was the same price as the SSD only. However, the heatsink I'm using already is not likely to ever fail. I have five identical SSDs and one cooler already in use so I'm basing this review off of them. So far, they have been working well. I use them primarily for data storage: four in a desktop computer and one in a laptop. In both computers, one of the drives in each also serves as a boot partition. For booting and running a computer from, they run as fast, if not faster, than the Samsung 970 Pros they replace which is remarkable considering that the Sabrents are TLC and the Samsungs are MLC. Write life for TLC drives are generally around half that of equally sized MLC drives but are still high enough to make it unlikely for anyone to exhaust the write life before replacing the drives for newer technology. The heatsink appears to cool better than the one used on the motherboard of my desktop computer. It just barely clears the graphics card (your mileage may vary).

[Plastic, Steel] Cooler Master can't be making a profit on this. It is just too good to be this cheap.

[ATX] This case is the best case to get if you're shopping for a mid-tower but you want 5.25 drive bays, full stop. Or, alternately, if you're doing a budget build with components from two or more generations ago and you're not super worried about heat generation. Otherwise, a mid-tower that's more airflow-optimized and has room for more fans/larger radiators like the Corsair 4000D could be a better choice. Because the fans are on the front of the case, it has a massive amount of room for a graphics card, but might struggle to pull in the air to cool a flagship. I've bought a full set of Noctua case fans and a 7900 XT for my final build (not pictured as it hasn't yet arrived, used older card for POST troubleshooting) so I might update with how the final build performs under load once it's arrived. The case was easy to build in, even for a first-time builder (with experienced supervision) like me. The velcro was a fantastic touch for cable management - I'm actually thinking about buying more somewhere and replacing some of the bread ties. The power button has a satisfying clean click, and isn't mushy. The matte black surface of my variant looks functional and clean and most importantly, is more likely to survive being hauled back and forth between apartments than tempered glass. Overall, for $80 plus $10 for the USB-C attachment, a great price for a mid-tower with 5.25 bays and massive graphics card clearance.
