COOLER MASTER ATCS 840 RC-840-KKN1-GP Black Computer Case

Comment:
So significantly space! This case is just awsome! Decided to go full size to enable with the future acquire of video card and cooling technique. Extremely massive fans but really quiet! Keeps all the tough drives cool inside the case. Case finish truly sucks but this shouldn't hurt the more than all practical use of the case. You virtually need to have a mircofiber glove just to handle it without having finding un-important white marks all over it which could rub off!

I researched this case prior to purchasing it mainly because from what it offered to see it below 200 dollars and 30 dollars more affordable on Newegg, there had to be a catch. No catch at all, the only downsides i have heard are that its flimsy and the panels dont match right. Certain its not as powerful as steel but plenty tough. The only way you will have a dilemma with the panels is if you make the issue and your not cautious, or if the delivery guy dropped it off the truck and ran more than it then utilized it for target practice at a shooting range. Excellent case effortless for constructing and tons of space to function with. Only point i didnt like is that i had to sacrifice a single of the big fans on best to install my liquid cooling which is a shame trigger these fans are excellent. This case is close to ideal its a builders/modders dream. Also its super quiet, and if your like me and like major circumstances this case wont shock you its not substantially larger than the case i had before it.

Quite good case, most likely the greatest I have ever owned. Incredibly quiet. Front fan was broken, broken blade and out of balance. Sent Cooler Master an email about a replacement fan, they asked me to upload pictures and fill out an ERMA. Completed the ERMA, very disappointed that it is still in "part request is pending". Thanks Cooler Master for not sending out a replacement part but, its a ผ fan. Customer service sucks, really disappointed that they people have not replaced my fan, its been a couple of days. Manufacturer Response:Dear Valued Buyer,We apologize for any inconvenience. Please get in touch with us with your usrma number in hand to check status/ to see what the hold up is. Its possible the fan is out of stock. The fan's msrp is essentially ย.99.

This case is nearly excellent, for starters the motherboard pins are taller than the average standoffs providing improved airflow beneath the Mobo also enabling for cables to run beneath for a neat clean build. The Mobo tray is removable and has brackets to reinforce it as so its not flemsey and slides out with ease.( A+++++) A tooless design and style on the 5.25 CD/DVD bays make installing DVD drives a breeze. I noticed other reviewers complain about the drive bays becoming also tight and not enabling for the drive bay to be installed but I feel they just didn't unlock the bay before attempting to instal the drive. I thought with three - 230mm fans it was gonna sound like a C-130 but its not, to my suprise its incredibly slient. The three.five in tough drive bays are tooless also with rubber groments to eradicate vibration and noise.(excellent design) A++++ The massive size of this case makes it possible for for uncomplicated cable management with plenty of elbow space to perform with and lots of airflow to help keep the cpu good n cool. The only con I can think of (for me anyhow) is it didn't come with a window on the door but it can be ordered from cooler master direct for ฮ.00. I only wish it was taller so it could fit eight - 3.5 difficult drives. But as we all know.... these Really are NOT cons..... just a want. I honestly can't assume of 1 CON. To continue the PRO's of this case ..... it also has an external 120mm fan that can be connected to the back of the Graphics cards to aid help in removing the heat from the GPU's . A+++ No sharp edges inside the case like in most of the affordable cases and a Attractive brushed aluminum exterior. The case is watercooling ready for an straightforward cooling upgrade and also has plenty of room for those extra substantial cpu coolers. (ever purchase an air cpu cooler and your case be too smaller?) This is a uncomplicated , well made case, aimed at the enthusiast.

Case is enormous. Plenty of space for the newest graphics cards. Quiet fans. Mounts for further fans pulling air more than the challenging drives (recommend you use them). Fairly good cable management holes. Sleek searching and sturdy. Case arrived with a negative upper fan and Cooler Master has not responded to an eRMA request I made on Jan 29, 2010. Not a peep from them. Incredibly disappointed with their "customer service". As for the case itself: external drive retension system requirements work. Drives need screwing in to protect against movement, negating the "tool free" setup.Decrease PSU mounting can be problematic with some energy supplies. I had to extend my 12v connector to reach the motherboard. Other than the NON-Existent Client support from Cooler Master. This is a excellent case. A lot of space to grow. Plenty of room for water cooling setups. I will not hold it against NewEgg for the negative fan nor the lack of assistance, but Cooler Master really should at least return a get in touch with specially when it requires a ฤ fan in a 赨 dollar case. I've contacted the Egg about the difficulty, hopefully they can light a match under Cooler Master's rump. Would I get it once again? Most definately. I only took off an egg due to the Total lack of support from Cooler Master.

The motherboard tray is amazing. The hard drive bay is amazing. There are a lot of capabilities about the construction that make this an absolute joy to work with. I can't stress adequate how significantly much easier my build was this time about, thanks to the usability capabilities of this case. 1 minor issue I had with build quality was the energy connectors for the constructed in fan. The prongs inside the connector were drop.. essentially each and every prong moving around individually. This made it Really really hard to connect the power cable to the fan. It's a smaller stupid issue that detracted from an otherwise good unit. You just want to be aware that this case is Big. That's going to give you plenty of room to operate, and plenty of room for airflow. But please appear at the measurements and make certain this will in fact fit in your space.

This issue is huge, so there's no need to have to worry about room to develop. The slide out motherboard tray is also a very good feature. The top rated mounted USB ports that can be hidden away gets a lot of oohs and ahhs from my close friends. Tool less installation of drives is nice as well. Provisions for water cooling, which I honestly believe was the accurate idea behind this case. New Egg shipping was leading notch as usual. My only compliant about this case is the case fan sizes. You can't discover aftermarket fans to fit these odd fan openings that have great airflow. It expense this case an egg since it lacked the capacity to customize the case and strengthen airflow. Not absolutely everyone has the funds to upgrade to a water cooling set up appropriate away. Running 930 I7 overclocked, ATI 5870, six gb of ram, X-FI titanium fatlaty, two hard drives and a few other points :)

This case is outstanding:- unbelievable for cable management- slide out motherboard tray on ball bearings with a hole for installing CPU heatsink back plates.- several mounting choices for PSU (top or bottom)- LOADS of space- very good and uncomplicated to use really hard drive setup.- sleek and clean design. Constructed for the "professional enthusiast".- comes with every part you could ever will need for setting up a computer (brackets, screws, and so on.). This case is Massive, heavy and there's absolutely nothing to grab onto when you want to move it.My pc doesn't require to move a lot luckily but I constantly will need aid when I go to move it.Seriously, do NOT underestimate it's size. It's bigger than any other complete tower case I have owned in nearly each way. The sides are Large and I cut a custom window into mine that appears lovely. Thanks to the complete aluminum side panels it's a good blank slate for any modders.When I say Large I imply it. I was able to match a full liquid cooling method inside the thing which includes 9 fans, TWO radiators (one 3x120 and a single 2x120), the pump, a reservoir and all the tubing.I have 3 graphics cards and an more than-sized PSU as effectively.

This case is heavy..I do squats, bicep curls and I bench press this case a handful of times just for a warm-up. It's gigantic, Had to sit it atop my desk, much to huge to match underneath. The pop-up I/O panel is excellent. I really like the removable Mobo tray, tends to make the set up really uncomplicated good airflow with all the fans. I hooked up two much more fans on the HDD cage, that was seriously simple I assume the mounting of the 5.25 drives could be a little better, the push-button program was a little tricky and it's not really sturdy. This case also shows off my major greasy fingerprints.

Genuinely Nice SearchingRelatively Light WeightEnormous and Fairly Fans Study prior 1 star evaluations. Mine arrived brand new, even so had the precise very same dilemma...The case arrived devoid of the screw bag ྴ stand off screws, 30 Ť-32 screw, 20 M3 screw, two Thumb Screw for air duct), and three out of 9 "Stand-Off" screws essential to mount the motherboard onto the base.An additional severe defect is that the five.25" drive bay will not match my five.25" DVD-RW. What the heck, took me another hour trying to expand the space inbetween the five.25" drive bay for me to stuff my dvd-rw drive in... Massive hassle.The three.five" adapter is screw mounted onto the chase, and wants to be removed initially to be attached to the three.five" devices. So initially you have to remove that tool-significantly less plastic thingy on 3.5" drive bay to have the screws exposed. But the freaking plastic thiny essential some brutal force to eliminate, when you need to set up any three.five" device like card readers or floppy disc. Ahead of purchase I had Cooler Master 590 case, and it was such a pleasure to use and configure. I don't comprehend why such a far better quality and hugely priced case have such significant defects prior to it was shipped out of the factory.So Purchaser Beware.

Outstanding fit and finish. Removable M/B tray involves full I/O region so all cards can be intstalled as effectively ahead of you slide it in. Outstanding cable management. Not as numerous "cutouts" as the Corsair Obsidian but highly functional. Enormous 230mm fans move a lot of air. Super quiet. Loads of area. Effortlessly accomodates all the newest video cards in SLI/Crossfire with lots of room to spare. None! Only concern would be some PSUs may possibly not have extended adequate cables if PSU is mounted in bottom of case. I opted for the Coolermaster Silent Pro RS850. Cable length was best and this modular PSU was a great addtion for cable management.CM ATCS 840CM Silent Pro RS850CM Hyper 212 PlusAsus P6X58D PremiumCorsair Dominator Ɠ x 2GB)WD Caviar Black 1TB 1002FAEX SATA IIIXFX Radeon 5870

-The removable MB tray created for a quite hassle totally free construct-Cable management is excellent--plenty of space to hide cables behind the PSU and HDDǛ.25 bays, and the tray cutouts are well placed-Appears gorgeous, and is quite quiet-Price is extremely affordable None. I adore this case. It was genuinely a joy to operate in and will likely last me numerous builds. If you're hunting for a very good case without having the flashy or strange looks, you'll in all probability like this 1.

Definitely enourmous, which I like. Good cable managementReally wide, can match all CPU coolers.I appreciate the 230mm fans, good flow for tiny noise.Greatest motherboard tray design and style Ive ever utilized, such an simple motherboard/cpu fan install (corsair H50)Very uncomplicated to operate withAppears Fantastic, minus the conAmazing on the notion for the two extra case fans sucking air away from the drives (and also increasing the airflow coming from the front of the case)Filters! Why couldnt CM design some filters for the HAF 932? (I own 1 of these as well)Mind you, the top 230mm have none as they are exhaust fans. The Really hard drive LED is horrible. I disabled it entirely, FAR as well vibrant. Shockingly, the side panels really feel kind of flimsy, but they do their job just fine. The case is somewhat a finger print magnet.I'm presently working with this case as a massive household server, so all challenging drive bays are filled. This case keeps them cool with the front fan. The case keeps issues quite quiet, maintaining in thoughts that all three 230mm fans are spinning, as well as 3 120mm fans. Incredibly strong feeling case when totally assembled.

Comment:
Excellent PS, installed with a snap and it's modularity is nice. No issues. Would be good if they challenging really hard energy connectors that were on 90 degree connectors as an alternative of straight, but I'm really becoming hypercrtical here. I like turtles

Comment:
Roomy :)Sophisticated and sleekNot several LED'sVery good Cooling The main con for me is the drive bay system... You are necessary to use these trays to mount your drives, nevertheless you can't access the cables from one particular side alone, if I want to change the drives about you have to open each sides of the case. Which defeats the objective of the tray method. I don't assume this was quite effectively believed out. Not to mention the side where the cables go doesn't permit for considerably cable space. So my 6 challenging drives have cables mashed into the side wall... I'm always afraid they may possibly get disconnected when putting on the other side panel. Aside from the lack of thought behind the drive bay technique its in fact a good case.

Comment:
Amazing.It's totally enormous - bigger than you may consider. TITANIC. It's also Mostly open (see cons) so in common it tends to make performing points a breeze. Cable routing was easy (though I just ended up smashing them all on the backside of the spot exactly where the drives mount).Which, speaking of, mounting drives was (again, largely) really easy.Lastly, this issue moves air. Like, a lot of it. And tends to make no noise although carrying out it. Fans that are as major as my head will do that. To leading it off, I replaced the 120mm fan with a silent 1 and place rubber screws in it. Not genuinely a con, but the case is SO major, it was not possible for my PSU (Corsair 1200W Gold) to attain the top drive slot for SATA energy. Had to place the DVD drive in bay 2.Style-sensible, only a single genuine issue. When you have the principal side open, there's a Incredibly huge metal piece towards the back (you can see it in the images). Image where you would generally screw in a PCI card... this makes putting the motherboard screws in really hard, as well as plugging in energy connectors for fans and the like.Now... the worst component - you have to be some sort of wizard to install a 3.five" drive. Initial unscrew the 3.five" bracket and pray you don't round out the screwheads due to the fact Hercules himself place them in. Then take off the plastic mounting factor. Then go come across the springs that shot out when you did that. Then trial-and-error how to put the brackets on the 3" device, place the plastic clip back on, attempt to place the screws in By means of the clip's insufficiently tiny holes, and you're done.WORST 3.five" MOUNTING The 3.5" drive slot is 'just' a 5.25" drive bay with a funny bracket in it (that can be removed, which means it's still a 5.25" drive bay), and a five.25" cover panel with a removable 3.5" panel in it. What this indicates is that when you only have 1 3.five" drive bay, there's NO Explanation why they couldn't have just made all the panels like that. This is just silly. Yeah, yeah, 3.five" drives or whatever you have are out of style, but contemplating all they Genuinely require to do to have more 3.5" drive slots is to put in some extra brackets.Granted, it's the most irritating way of installing a 3.five" drive I've EVER noticed, but I seriously wanted at least two. Only a single. Unfortunate.

Fair cost for an all aluminum complete tower caseThe hdd cages are simple to attach and call for no screwsCase is pretty quiet considering the amount of air flow from all the fansThe motherboard tray is stiffer and superior created than I anticipatedComponents run incredibly cool due to the excellent air circulationDecent cable management The case in common is substantially more flimsy than my Lian Li v2100. The hdd trays really feel flimsy at very best, the side panels are possibly much less than 1ǘ the thickness of my Lian Li. In fairness it was about ๖ significantly less than my Lian Li although.The case is quite quiet, but the fans have a noticeable but not overly annoying growl to them. I assume it comes from the really substantial top rated fans. It is tight up against my desk, and I can really feel the vibrations through my desk.I wish they employed thumbscrews in spot of all the philips head screws. The screwless hdd trays and drive bays are diminished if you nevertheless have to use a screwdriver elsewhere I want I could have observed the Corsair 700D in individual prior to acquire. My choice was among this 1 and the Corsair, and the Cooler Master won due to the less expensive cost tag. I may be willing to spend the further โ on the Corsair if the construction is superior, and it has greater fans.I want it had noise dampening material installed, although I am not confident it makes that substantially of a distinction.

Fanastic caseMassiveLots of airflowSufficient mounts and possibilities to meet any of your cooling mixture or desires.Removable motherboard tray Once I mounted my CORSAIR Cooling Hydro Series CWCH50 with a push pull approach on the fans, the removable motherboard tray seemed to start off to bow a little, of course this is most likely simply because of the aluminum and the cooler gets kinda heavy, this wasn't a large challenge for me even though mainly because as soon as I had assembled the side panel, it forces it to straighten out. This is the most costly and seriously the first case I have ever dumped some income into, and on the flip side I have under no circumstances been a lot more satisfied in a case in all my life, Great case, if you have the dollars get it, you won't be disappointed.

I personal three 820뫖 Stackers, appreciate them. What I dislike about the 820뫖's.-I use 1KW Pc Energy & Cooling PS, it prevents me from placing a prime fan in.-The large side fan solves the difficulties I have with the herd of fans in the side panel.-The two prime fans, in my view will insure a good strong exhaust of hot air and insure a cooler case, soon after all, heat does rise.-The controls on the prime front of the case collect dust and dirt, gets in the USB ports, they now have a panel that can be closed and protect them and it is in a vertical plane so, an additional concern solved-it seems to be hugh, this is an asset in my view.-Power provide is in the bottom. I will be acquire one particular of these in the next couple of months

Appears to have amazing airflow capability, especially with the two 120mm fans that you can mount behind the tough drives to pull air more than them. They left out what is arguably the most important aspect of a laptop case; the bag of screws and standoffs. Now, I'm not a n00b when it comes to developing, so I had some standoffs and screws lying around, but due to the fact the case requires a special threading, I only had 6 of the 9 I required. I was offered a credit to locate the standoffs locally, but to my dismay, there are none. Now I'm left with a case that I can't use until I uncover mentioned standoffs. Needless to say, I'm really disappointed, specifically simply because this was going to be my weekend project. Now I'm going to have to wait till Monday to even get in speak to with CM, as they didn't answer their phones earlier nowadays.
