CoolerMaster CM690 ATX Mid-Tower Case

Comment:
Buying this case was one of the few times in my life that I feel I got MORE than I paid for. Easy assembly, Great cooling (which was the reason for the new case) and good looking too! Thanks for another great item!

keeps everything cool, i almost want to keep my soda in it. I like how the stuff i use most (USB, Mic, headset) are on the top for easy use. Its the perfect case. not to mention it looks stunning

This case looks amazing and the install is easier then a breeze. This case keeps the CPU and one of my video cards VERY cool compared to my old one. With summertime coming my house gets extremely hot during the day so that helps to keep them from roasting. my big issue with the case is its ability to cool my second video card, the one closest to the power supply. I ordered 2 new 120mm fans about ten minutes ago so when they arrive and if they help ill try and edit this review.

I've used Thermaltake and Inwin cases before and I've got to say this Cooler Master is one of the nicest. It's strong, roomy and well designed and priced right. There's enough room and bays for building a serious system. Some of the panels are stiff. Especially the front bezel. Instructions are limited and the cable management could be more positive. The plastic holders don't do a very good job. No complaints!

It is a grate case, good size and very comfortable in the inside. A manufacturer forgot to add a speaker for the motherboard. The front cover is a litter tricky to remove. I love the seven fan facilities. The on switch has is acceptable,I hope they improve the design in the future. I also miss the usb and audio connectors in the front. I am berry happy with this case.

great product!

This is the easiest case to build on that costs less than a hundred bucks. If you are looking for a great case with lots of room for cheap, look no further. The documentation, however, leaves much to be desired. Actually, it's pretty non-existent. It's still pretty easy to figure out, though.

This is the first case I've bought in a few years and what appealed to me was the rotated HDD drive bays. The chassis worked well for the system I put together. Outside of the lower chassis fan mount, things went together very easily. The value vs features of the case were what appealed to me the most.

have had my cm690 for about 5 months and cant say anything bad about it! keeps my core i5 and Msi GD80 system nice and cool and has a lot of room. front and top panel is a pain to take off and wish there was some more cable management holes but other than that very nice case looks awesome too!!!

amateur builder here, but the case was awesome came with all the bells and whistles, great ventilation, many options for fans. just be careful it is very large, which made it easy to install everything, but i forget about my desk space, lol.

Plenty of room to fit in the big cpu coolers and graphics cards. i have the Cooler Master V8 in mine.. it does block one side fan but that's not a big deal.looks great...good ventilation..easy setup.

The is a poor choice for anyone building their own system. The case has a proprietary system that connects the PCI cards to the motherboard. It is plastic and very flimsey. You can't fix it or corrected -- if broken. I would stay away from this case for that reason.

Great case. Everything pops in place without the need for screws. There is a ton of room. The top ports are a great feature

Used this for a new PC. There's loads of space and everything running nice and cool. Only downside is the manual, it sucks.

Comment:
Great case! To be picky: 1. Manual is very sketchy with only pictorial directions. 2. There is a bit of a learning curve on removing top panel and front panel is less friendly to remove. The PCI slot fixation is a little quirky but works great once you get the hang of it, push a little, pull a little. I wanted to put in a second ''tray'' for card reader in addition to the floppy and emailed them for parts. Haven't heard back yet. I bought a second one. Overall very impressed with quality and cooling.

I am totally impressed with this case. It is very sturdy made of heavey steel but with a mesh top and front for colling. All the other cases I have ever seen are cheap and tinny by comparison. It included three cooling fans and does not require tools to install hard drives. These were being sold off for 49 dollars, if I new how good it was going to be I would have bought at least two. This will last a lifetime.

This case is so easy to work with and has so much room,and it came with 3 fans. Was thinking of adding additional fans but it runs cool the way it is. Great case, good directions.

It's a great case for that price(I bought it for $50). There is meshes in front and upper side, which ensure the great cooling performance yet a little more noises. You may find the noises made by the fan on side panel abnormally loud. That is why I rate the Quality to be 4. Because the fan is mounted too close to the panel. You can reduce the noise by 1) removing the fan on the side. Or 2) put some paddings between the fan and the panel so that the fan can be fixed a little bit far away from the panel. This is my method. Overall, I love this case for its wire management and tools free install feature.

how can a case be Sli ready, without a power supply?

A great case for even twice the cost... but this one is cheap. Plenty of fans, great air flow and a design that ensures cool operation of your mobo. Built like a tank and plenty of slots for HD's or optical drives. A great RAID box. This is the only ATX case you should consider.
