        Very satisfied with the product

        The case corresponds perfectly to my expectations, simple and solid which offers a support for SSD easy to use. The case is simple and solid and offers an easy to use SSD holder. Be careful with the metal parts, some of them are extremely sharp, so don't hurt yourself when assembling.

        A few oddities...

        The HDD receptacle is perpendicular to the tower, impossible to screw without dismantling the front panel... What's the point, I could only put one screw per HDD...
        As for the rest, it's classic, except for the motherboard which installs well but go figure, you need 9 ready-to-screw studs but 2 are a little bit different without it being justified during the installation... or at least, I didn't understand the interest... It's a pity that a front panel is not transparent, it reassures me to see the fans turning...

        Good value for money

        Medium tower entry-level case, quite correct. Aesthetically, the front panel is nice, the rest is a bit "dull" due to the slightly grainy matte paint. The metal sheets are thin but well adjusted and above all not sharp, my fingers say thank you. And that makes it quite light.
        As far as cable management is concerned, there are many passages between the motherboard side and the disk side, it's practical.
        Advice for mounting the motherboard: dismantle the upper part of the case (several screws) to access the connections because the MC is stuck against it.

        Just perfect!

        I agree with the general opinion. Top notch case!

        You can remove the 5'1/4 and 3'1/2 bays if you don't need them. It's amazing!
        The storage of the 2'1/2 SDDs is very clever.

        The only fan supplied is a little light but you can add a lot more. I put two 14cm fans on the front, put my 240cm radiator under the top. And there's plenty of room inside.

        Housing

        Excellent product received very quickly. Very easy to dismantle to install all components.

        Almost perfect.

        The case is very good, the aesthetics is very successful, the assembly was easy but it is a pity that the case is a little "badly made" the management cable is not very simple with an ATX card because the card does not position itself very well and does not leave the place to pass the cable of connection of the processor by the suitable opening.
        Otherwise the case is superb (for its price) it is very large and leaves plenty of room for the components.
        The case doesn't heat up (with a ryzen 5. 2600x without a fan on the case and the basic ventirad of the processor)
        Very good value for money.

        I recommend this product.

        Perfection on a budget exists

        Hello everyone,

        I was looking for a medium sized box to mount a PC in the living room only connected to a TV with a complete wifi / bluetooth interface. I turned to this sober and elegant box with some doubts. after receptions I have no more doubts! it respires quality and coolmaster experience:

        The sliding panel is top notch, discreet and practical if you want to keep a DvD player or even a burner support.
        It's a very well organized interior, with a ssd slot behind the right panel in a specific removable rack (great for that).
        Dust filters in almost all places (few builders have the bottom and it's really a shame because it's the number 1 enemy of our components)

        I have not yet finished the installation because I am waiting for parts but for the price you get a lot for your money without any disappointment!

        If like me you are looking for a sober medium box without nightclub lights in the living room with all the necessary useful to mount a modern configuration or even older all is there. Dark

        I'm looking forward to getting a new one....

        Very good value for money

        Good quality finish. Easy to assemble: ergonomic, ingenious (I'm thinking in particular of SSDs). The case is not noisy. The fans present are enough to keep my configuration at a good temperature. The latter is an Intel Core i9-9900K 3.6 GHz processor + Noctua NH-D9L fan mounted on a CM: MSI Z390-A PRO with a PNY GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB XLR8 Gaming Overclocked Edition graphics card. Note the presence of two SSDs and two Seagate Barracuda (7200T) HDDs. All this is powered by a Corsair RM750x 80PLUS Gold power supply. Oh yes, I forgot the memory: 2X 16 Corsair Vengeance LPX Series Low Profile 32 GB DDR4 3000 MHz CL15. Now you know everything ;-)

        Robust, clean, discreet

        This case is really spacious, with guaranteed airflow unless you have a Titan X. The design is clean and unobtrusive, and the finishes (including the front panel that can slide up and down) are nice. Also, miraculously, the button is simple and doesn't get stuck. I'm not sure what more I could ask for than that.

        A remarkable case

        Hello, I bought this box to put an old configuration in it and give it a facelift at a lower cost, result? This box puts the majority of its competitors to shame for a derisory price... (I'm thinking of the corsair 88r that I bought for 55€ and which is much less good)
        The case is beautiful and sober, it has dust filters on the top, on the front, and on the bottom for the power supply.
        The hard drive cage is really well made and ultra practical, as are the 2 ssd slots on the back. I'm not sure how much it costs to build a case like this one, but I'm sure it's worth it.
        There is a burner/bluray slot which is almost unheard of in recent cases.
        The case is light but solid, it has the power button on top so you don't have to slide the door down to turn on the computer unlike other cases where the engineers had the idea to hide the button under a door....
        Important point to note, the hole for the CPU power cable is very (too) low and very small, because of this it was impossible to install the motherboard, I had to pass the cable through the front which takes away from the aesthetics... that's why I remove a star. But at this price, go for it.

        Perfect for the price!

        This case is perfect for a small tower! The mounting of disks, fans and other components is very easy! The power supply is positioned at the bottom and the HDD/SDD compartment allows a perfect cable management!

        CLEAR

        I bought this for a small budget but it has a certain sobriety and quality of construction.
        It is perfect... This case has a good quality / price ratio. It has a good volume to organize the different elements. The sliding front panel from top to bottom is nice.

        Good box

        The case is of good quality and remains very sober. Large volume, no problem mounting my graphics card and wiring up properly. The dedicated SSD and HDD slots are very practical. The case is a good case at a good price.
