Customer Ratings & Reviews

This Cooler Master case is an excellent case for the money. I did quite a bit of searching during an off season (read: not Black Friday or any other special sales) before I came across this case. I needed a case to assemble a 6-core gaming PC from my old motherboard and AMD CPU into to sell on Craigslist. The case looks fantastic, and is good enough for daily usage, but isn't overly high quality. Not that there is anything wrong with it, but it's basically like buying a Honda Fit instead of an Audi S4. It accomplishes the same jobs, but doesn't have high-end anything. If you need an affordable ATX case, this one is probably the best you're going to find for the money unless there is a sale somewhere on something.

all in all this pc case is very good for all kind of things so yes. buy it now people stop waiting.

it is a good case i like the vents on the top and i like the design i only have two issues with it one it does not come with a cover for the back to cover up the onboard devices like USB, Network, sound, video now i have just an open hole in that area good thing it is in the back

I have built probably 7-8 of my own computers now and I have to say this is the best case I have every worked with. 1. Its black inside.. no ugly metal showing - this makes it much neater inside. See pics I attached.. image how ugly a plain metal backdrop would be that most cases have. 2. Cable management is so easy with this case.. its easy to route what I need behind and out of sight. 3. For the price, I was very surprised at how well the sides fit on and come off... some of them are such a pain to line up (my antec 900 for example can be quite a pain). My only "complaint" is that only 1 fan is included, but I found a 4 pack of 120mm fans for $13 shipped on a "egg" site.. For this price 1 fan is fine, Im still saving a lot over some other cases out there.

The tower is very simple and it does not have any extras but for the price it was a good deal. The top two fans 120mm would not fit in after I put in my motherboard. I had to find a 15mm thick fan instead of the usual 25mm fan. The bottom 120mm fan would not fit in with the 650 watt power supply that I had chosen so I had to put in a smaller fan.

This is a very nice case for the money. I have 2 already. It looks very nice and the air flow is excellent. If you overclock you won't have any problems with that. Managing the cables requires a bit of ingenuity. If you need perfect cable management this case would not please you. For my needs it was immaterial.

this computer case was a great find for me. it works great for gaming and quick changes to the motherboad with easy access.

This case is my first Cooler Master and I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised. The documentation provided was better than most I've purchased. I was impressed that it had bottom for the power supply, which I have come to prefer. It also has a filter medium on the outside bottom of the case so that the air is filtered before it goes through the PS. Dirt inside the case is an enemy! It causes premature component failure so having the filters helps greatly. Also, the see-thru side panel will make it easy to see if and when it does get dirty and need cleaning. The drives were very easy to mount. I had no problems with this case whatever. Also, having the ventilation in the top of the case was something that should have been done so long ago...hot air rises! You can add fans (2) to the top if you want but since hot air rises I don't believe there's a need. My only negatives concerning this case was the price, which I think could be about $10 less, and the use of BLUE led's! I wish they would go to green led's because the blue led's are too bright!!! Alright, I know they aren't actually, that it's just US humans that preceive them to be brighter, but they are very disturbing if you don't shut down the computer, especially at night. I have family and friends that have been kept awake at night by the flashing blue led from the next room across the hallway.

Lots of room for air flow......this is the first pre-built or barebones desktop case I've had with bottom mounted PSU. Air vents in bottom front create a great flow of air from th efront to the back. Nice big clear window on the left-side panel. Air vent on the back, front, top and bottom are capable of holding 120mm case fans. I ordered this online on Monday evening, and the free 2 Day Air shipping got the case to my apt Thursday afternoon. The manufacturer does not feature a PSU with this case, so the money you'd spend on it goes back into the case. Black painted exterior and interior. Toolless on drive bays and both side panels.

This system looks pretty cool once you have it. The light up blue light makes you feel you really did hard work on this case.This case is a MID ATX Case.and has room for Micro ATX.This should be able to fix a ATX size i believe. It had the pins for it but it would be kind of cramped.This system comes with One fan in the front.It has 6 vent areas where 5 fans can go.One Power Supply blowing out one. There is plenty of air flow on this system.You want the air to be pushed out.Because of all the vent areas.

This is a great case for it's price, i bought it for $40. It is everything you would expect from a budget case and more. All black case which will easily hide your wires, and a clear "see through" side panel to show the led lights within your case. comes with abundance of mounting screws. Quality is better than what you would expect for it's price. *Bonus, it comes with top & bottom fan filters to keep dust from entering the case. The Cons: don't be fooled by the top dual 120mm fan mounts, they are spaced too far apart to mount the Corsair H100i water cooler, or other dual fan radiators. Secondly , the mainboard is mounted too close to the top, depends on which board you have, you only have about 20 to 30mm between the case & the RAM placed on your mainboard. The fan slot on the bottom of the case is very close to the PSU, so if you have a large PSU you may not be able to place a 120mm fan, and/or a fan at all. I recommend this case to everyone that will be using "air cpu cooler" on a budget for a decent looking case. p.s. you will need to buy 3-4 extra 120mm fans as the case only comes with 1, i like to pick my own brand/model of fans which is great .

This case works, no defects. It is sturdy and comes with one fan, so that means that you might want to buy an extra fan for the back. No warps, bents or missing parts. I put all the parts together into this case and everything works fine. Buttons work fine, and it has a cool window on its side so I can peek in there.

"Cooler Master Elite 430 Mid-Tower Chassis" is a decent computer casing. Since the first one arrived damaged, I had to exchange the case for a new one. Once the new one finally arrived, through store pickup, the Best Buy employees working customer service were not going to give me the product. Even though they told me the product was in house, they refused to give me the product I purchased. Something about it not being processed. So, I took my case to the store manager. Suddenly, two store managers were working to get me my case. Customer Service Employees: Epic Fail Best Buy Store Managers: Epic Win

Power supply on bottom - nice feature, first time I got the case like this. Dust filters- another intelligent touch, USB, mic, headphones jacks on top.
