COOLER MASTER CM 690 II Basic RC-692-KKN3 Black Computer Case

Comment:
Wish I'd bought the advanced version, but I don't regret the case. It's massive, very pretty, has a great black on blue LED scheme that can be turned off at the press of a button (Major bonus for someone who sleeps with their computer or just doesn't like LEDs)The entire case is a massive vent. So it's relatively cool, and has great airflow, but lets out a lot more noise than I expected (Used the Fractal DD R3 case as my reference) It's an expected loss though, and doesn't bother me. I wouldn't recommend this if you want a powerful (We're talking quadfiring 580s here) and quiet case, but for any other situtation it's fantastic for its price range.

astounding case very best ive ever owned extremely good finish simple installation of components tool-much less drive bays top HD audio and ESATA and USB 2. simple to remove side panel LED switch only works with the Fan that comes with the case witch I swapped for a 140mm COOLERMASTER fan some thumb screws required loosening with a screwdriver this case is a great acquire but if you get this version program on buying far more fans simply because it only comes with two

Plenty of room so far and good cooling. I haven't added a video card but, but I have a SAPPHIRE 100297L Radeon HD 5830 1GB 256-bit on the way. The techs at Sapphire mentioned this card was 9.five inches extended and the case is suppose to handle longer cards. It came with two 120mm fans and I added 2 much more 120's and 1 140mm. none Properly built solid case.

Absolutely really like it! Excellent design, sturdy, a lot of room, excellent airflow. This is my first build and i had zero difficulties, in contrast to the reviews i've read about the other instances i had regarded as obtaining. You can't go incorrect with this case! Didn't come with complimentary membership to the "fruit of the month club" Got in a fantastic combo deal with mobo i had already picked out, so i couldn't pass it up. saved ุ on combo. thanks newegg

every thing its just amazing cautious when messing with the mesh it is really sharpand the tool much less cd drive bays are type of sketchy but tool much less is just type of a gimmick anyways you would be a fool to obtain any case other than this one for below 100$

Superior searching, no nonsense, appreciate the breathable case mesh (made of plastic) only 2x usb ports available externally, kinda low-cost plastic front-facing frame, case sides are tough to put back on, it was a little tough putting the motherboard brass mounting screws in location. Got it free with a energy provide. I like the no thrills attitude. I like that the LED light can be turned on and off. I like the leading of the case exactly where you can put stuff (little groove)

This is the greatest case I have ever owned. As opposed to most companies that only care about how cool there cases appear and nothing about wire management, future expansion, giant VGA's, Fan filters... and so considerably more. This case has it all excellent looks and exellent design. You can use 90,120 or 140mm fans. I would recomend this case to everyone who desires to make there life a lot easier. I could take the side panel off and you won't see 1 wire, now thats a good searching case in my opinion. I ordered a 8-pin extention atx power cord with the case and I used it too. Get a atx extention you will need it. For the price this case is a steal, Don't let othere corporations win you over with a low cost left over powersupply.

Exactly where to start... this case is amazing, all the capabilities of high finish situations and then some, 100% painted, the cd drive and hd drive mounting systems are some of the finest ive ever utilised, mounting for internal water cooling radiator is fantastic, plenty of room for fan, mounting space for push/pull approach on the hd cage is also nice. If you are seeking for a case below 贶 dollars there are not many selections better than this case. Only 2 issues ive had with this case are with the motherboard positioning, it would appear that the motherboard mounting holes are a fraction high. Not a big deal but produced obtaining dual slot GPU into position difficult because the DVI outputs touch the top of the slot they fit into and they touch it adequate that the GPU is below a bit of tension. Second challenge is that the fan mount for the 80mm fan is for 15mm thick only, a 25mm touches the motherboard and there are only a couple of 15mm offered most of them are from coolermaster

Looks superior, exceptional cable management, plenty of areas for fans, tool-much less difficult drive trays, thumbscrews for expansion slots, and a lot of space for a decent gaming rig. One of my difficult drive trays arrived broken. This is no huge deal as a replacement can be obtained. I wonder how this occurred when the rest of the item was in great condition, though. Also, the case does not come with an adapter for mounting 3.5" card readers/floppy drives like the Advanced version does. You can get 1 of those from a different manufacturer, although, so I'm not knocking any points off for that. The cable management inside this case is good. Everything inside is clean and neat. The case is huge enough to fit all my hardware and every thing runs cool even with just two case fans.

Purchased this case for a budget PC and I have to say that I am thoroughly impressed now that I got it together. Quite straightforward to assemble if you don't feel about it and just do it and a really organized interior. The ability to turn the case light on and off with a switch is a neat feature. I also appreciate that Cooler Master made it simpler to keep things cool. Loads of additional fan slots and a water cooling ability. Appears to be well built and sturdy. Putting the hard drives in with the supplied slots was a tad awkward. When I put the tough drives into their slots, I was very afraid that I was going to snap them in half, but they held alright. When the "holsters" are then slid into location in the case, there is absolutely nothing that secures them which appears a small dumb. When you go to put the difficult drives in, it appears as although they are going in backwards (which they are). You just have to go with it. It keeps the cables out of the way and makes the inside look rather neat and organized. I spent very a bit of time trying to figure out yet another way, but if you want to save your self some time, just roll with it. It will make sense when all is carried out.

This case makes it uncomplicated to preform a multitude of tasks: clean layout to permit better air flow, effortless removal of the front panel for cleaning and instalation of fans, etc. There's a "white glove" feeling that you get when you start to look by means of the vast quantity of accessories that Cooler Master includes with the case such as zip ties, black screws and so on. The most great feature is the capacity to mount a fan on the "bottom" of the motherboard to increase CPU cooling. The space given in between the back of the mobo and case wall to mount the fan for the back side of the CPU portion of the motherboard barely accomodates fans with a 25mm thickness. I would very suggest critical buyers to buy a slimmer fan for ease of instalation This is my first case with side pannels that enable for the mounting of fans, so i'm wondering why there's no incorporation of a wiring method that accomodates the fans that would mount on the case's side pannels eliminating the require for the customer to buy fan "extention cords"

C'est l'un des meilleurs boitiers avec lesquels j'ai eu la chance de travailler. Il a un beau look, il est très bien fait, il a une excellente ventilation, filtration et est malgré tout très silencieux. Il est un peu massif et a une bonne dimension, mais cela montre qu'il est résistant et qu'il peut loger toutes les composantes que vous voudrez y placer... particulièrement les cartes vidéos les plus longues du marché. J'acheterais encore et encore ce boitier.

Quite well engineered case. I adore the tool-much less challenging drive and 5.25 bays (only two are tool-much less). Really spacious; solid construction; rubber feet. This case is very easy to work with. A pleasure.Even although not as big as the full tower it replaces, this is a Much better case and with the excellent design, can actually hold much more items. It was a discomfort just to get the tough drives mounted inside my old case. They would make get in touch with with the significant heat-sinks on my memory. I had to use three.5" --> 5.25" mounting brackets and place them on the five.25" bays.Case consists of two fans which ought to be adequate but you can mount a lot of much more (which I most most likely will). Wise thought to contain a fan switch - turns the front fan light on and off. The instruction book could have been a bit much better (but I didn't want it). two tool-much less 5.25 bays - not a large deal but having all 4 as tool-less would have been a bit much better. I must mention that this case calls for SATA cables with a 90 degree bend on the drive side. Otherwise, you will squish the ends of the SATA cables when mounting the side door. Not a big deal actually, SATA cables are cheep if you happen to damage one (unlikely).

Excellent build high qualityRoomyLooks great My cats hair is already beginning to plug up the holes for ventilation. Luckily, it is very easily wiped away and there are a lot of holes on this case.

I have owned this case for a year now and the only complaint I have is the room between the side panel and motherboard tray. With all the cables I have running through the back it is somewhat difficult to get the panel back on. Other than that I have no complaints. This case has lots of fan support.

I have the older brother (RC690), soon after seeing this I thought what an awsome case. Built incredibly properly coolermaster cut no corners on these RC series cases. Plenty of room, thick steel, many possibilities for storage, cooling, and upgrades. You will be tempted to install as quite a few fans as feasible I have had many different circumstances and for the money these Coolermasters are the ticket

I own the CM690 I and I love it. I used the II version recently for one of my friend' build and I can say I'm really jealous. The newer version is a great improvement. Easy mounting of all the parts, and great cable management system. Possibly the greatest price-quality ratio of all time!!

An exceptionally well layed out case designed with cooling in mind. The front panel cables/wires will reach any reasonably layed out motherboard headers - even a far-reaching HD Audio. It is nice to see that one can turn off the front (fan) LED - or just don't plug it in. This review was modfied by poster @ 07-26-11 09:07 PM

Great design, fans are good, good air. would recommend this case

Comment:
Great construct excellent and style. A lot of room for my three additional 120mm fans and 4 tough drives. Getting able to turn off the forward facing fan LED is key. All the additional stuff like the twist ties and the preloaded case fans and screws are also very good top quality, thumbs up CM. It doesn't slice bread. 1 day shipping, go newegg.
