Cooler Master HAF 912 Advanced Computer Case 'ATX, microATX, USB 3.0, Mesh Side Panel' RC-912A-KKN1

I highly recommend this case to anyone with a mid or high-end set of PC components in need of a case with adequate airflow and room for expansion. This case is astoundingly quiet and very roomy. 2 x 230mm intake at the side and front near the bottom mean intuitive air flow (i.e. ambient intake at bottom, exhausts at roof and rear where the hot air of components rises to) along with 1 rear exhaust 140/180mm fan (it's one of those) and 1 top exhaust. I installed an extra roof exhaust fan, the Cooler Master MegaFlow 200 with LED for its impressive cooling and sound properties. All in all, the setup work very well. On top of the HAF X, my upgrade also encompassed buying a new CPU and motherboard and RAM. The CPU is an i7-4770k with a Corsair H100i water-cooling kit and the temperatures are the lowest I've ever seen on a CPU (pretty much ambient temperatures across all cores) when not under intensive load. This is surely a testament not only to the CPU cooler but also the case itself. The H100i radiator block fits very nicely in the case on the roof and the dual 200mm exhausts help it do its job very well.Installation-wise, this case made things very easy. It is very roomy and even includes features I was not aware of prior to recieving the case, like the graphic card cooling duct which allows a single 140mm fan to be installed in a graphics card cooling role, taking in air from the front 230mm fan. On the topic of the front 230mm fan, it is a very nicely placed fan in that it cool any drives you might install in the ironically named 'hotswap' (because drives there basically won't even begin to get hot) bays down below, keeping drives at a very desirable temperature.Cable management is made easy in this case thanks to various features like gaps in the motherboard tray made specifically for the purpose of feeding cables through. These helped a lot during installation. The front panel is a nice design also, with a cover for the on/off, reset, and fan LED buttons which comes in handy. The plethora of available ports on the front end is also convenient.All in all I highly recommend this case and wouldn't want any other. For a decent PC you want a decent case, and this looks the part as well as doing great justice to the components it houses with its unrivalled cooling performance.

I have just thrown this purchase into the council recycling skip. It was an Amazon warehouse buy. The 30 return window is gone. It is unsellable on ebay.Never again will I waste my money on Amazon Warehouse. From delivery, the case's plastic side panel was falling off. I spent £10 on black oxide 3.5 bolts and nuts to repair the side panel. OK. Next, I intended to upgrade the cooling. I bought same brand Coolermaster specified size fan to add to the top of the case. It would not fit. It was the right size in theory but you have to saw off the edges, drill holes etc etc. etc. So I went for a "rescued" fan from ebay. This did fit- just, but how geriatric was the "rescue" - my guess is 10+ years - and what if I had to replace the other fans? Then I discovered only 1 of the 5 case fans could be replaced. They just dont make these sizes any more. (I recently discovered that Lian Li have started designing "unique size fan" cases. I will NOT be buying one of those.) So, thinking this was a gaming build, I decided( Screw The Fans!) to do water cooling. Coolermaster says this case is designed for that, right? Wrong! No fitting holes for radiator AND you have to cut out structural portions of the top to get any aio to fit. The case turned into a money pit.

I cannot describe how awesome this case is. Compared to my last case the CiT Vantage, this is a major step up for my rig. I think after watching the video review that LinusTechTips did, it really convinced me to buy it.The size is ridiculous, not in a bad way, but a good way. It'll easily fit all your components in, and with the cable management system (and a bit of time and patience), you'll easily be able to hide your wiring around the back, with barely any cable clutter in the front. Which brings me to another point, the rear side panel: what Cooler Master have done is left a small gap in the panel so there's an extra bit of gap to fit all the wires around the back, making sure that they aren't squashed.The case comes with a front 230mm intake fan, the side a 200mm, rear exhaust 140mm, and a top 200mm fan, so you don't worry about buying extra fans. Although you may want to purchase another 200mm for the top.I love the tooless mounting system on both the DVD/CD and hard drive cages. Installing a hard drive is optical drive is a breeze, and is effortless. Something I am confused about, is they include this 2.5" mounting bracket when the HDD mounts/brackets already have screw holes for a 2.5" drive. Kinda useless, but at least it's there.A nice little feature which I don't really use due to insufficient cables, is the hot swap module. At the front there is room for 2 HDDs, which in theory totals the hard drive capacity up to 7. But since I don't use it, I tend to use them for storing small items, like a phone or wallet.There are so many great features of this case, along with a great design and build. I just pointed out a few that I love. I highly recommend this case for an enthusiast. The ONLY downside is that it doesn't come with 2 top 200mm fans. But hey, you can buy them rather cheap.All other than that, amazing case. 5/5.
