Cons: No USB 3, I hope that they do a revision of this Case as it is the best bang for the buck case on the market in my opinion.
Pros: Cheap, Decent Build Quality, Has quite a lot of room. Comment:
I enjoyed building in this case, it has a lot of the features that a higher priced case would have, with decent amount of space for cable management and longer video cards. I recommend this case for almost all of my tight budget builds as I believe this case has a ton of features for the price, generally around $50. I would love to see this case get a new revision where they make minor changes like adding on board USB 3, etc. |

Cons: None
Pros: Great low priceSimple to buildLots of room and options to the case Comment:
I just can not complain about this case. It may not be flashy, but I like the placement of everything inside. I like that I was able to remove some of the drive bays and relocate the 2.5 inch drive bay there. That gave ample room for the cables and everything came together nicely. |

Cons: Wish it had 2 more USB ports in the front (very minor)
Pros: Lots of room to work inReally enjoy the high airflowLots of places to put fansLove having power supply on the bottom (was my first case with that) Comment:
Overall this case was a great buy. I don't have anything bad to say about it at all. It's a great price, it has lots of room, air flow etc. as I've mentioned above. I probably won't buy another case unless of course something breaks on this one (as in I break it) or I choose to go full out with a massive case. It has lots of hard drive slots so that's a non issue as well. |

Cons: None I can tell
Pros: Built tough, side loading hard drives, clips instead of screws for HDs, hole for power supply, lots of potential fan mounting for high airflow Comment:
Owned one for 4 years now, bought a second one recently. Love the design and all the features it has. Didn't realize how useful the side loading + clip-on for the hard drives were until I built an htpc without one. Lots of room for a tall heatsink and long video card, and filters on the front and power supply so your system doesn't get clogged (obviously you need to clean them periodically). I have no idea about USB 3 on the front panel but I don't ever use it doesn't matter to me. |

Cons: comes with 1 front 120mm fan 1 back 120mm fan both non lit or have no speed controlrather heavy for its small size especially when your parts are in there with those it gets up to about 36-46 ibs
Pros: fairly good at coolingi personally like the industrial rugged look (its not for everyone)looks and feels rather durable i didnt have any issues with accidently bending or cracking the case while installing partshas quite a few clips for hdds etc Comment:
good case overall i enjoy it was a pleasure to work with dont let the price point fool you to much cause if you want your case to look really sharp your also going to go fan shopping what i personally did was move the 120mm to the side panel bought 2 120mm cooler master led light fans to put at front and a 200mm cooler master red led fan to put at the top so that was around a extra $40 bucks including taxes so overall solid case but if you really want it to be its best you need to invest a few more dollars in it |

Cons: Not a fan of the styling
Pros: Low PriceSpaciousWell laid out and easy to work inQuietExcellent Air Flow Comment:
This is not the end all and be all case, but it is a very good all around case and amazing for the price. I originally bought one when building a system for my son primarily because it was on sale and included a decent set of fans already. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it's also well laid out, easy to work in, and the stock fans are both MUCH quieter than I was expecting and quite effective.I've built 2 more systems since and chosen the HAF 912 for both of them as well. I'm not wild about the aesthetic of the case but functionally I have zero complaints and even at normal pricing you will be hard pressed to find something better value wise.If I could give half stars I would, this is not a 5 star case, but given the price point I think it's a solid 4.5! |

Cons: no GPU bracket
Pros: beautiful with LED fans and cheap! also great for a rig Comment:
Everything you need except a GPU bracket, other than that no complaints, it houses a ASUS direct CU II GTX 770 with room to spare for good airflow. has good cable organization route even without a modular PSU. |

Cons: no usb 3 on front panel but who cares for the price
Pros: Price, good looking,removable drive cage for long video cards, 2 fans, both are quiet, able to put rad or 2 120mmfans or 200mm fan on top, extra card slot in back. Lots of room in back for hiding cables. Removable ssd tray near power supply. Comment:
Have purchased many cases over the years and this is on of the best for a budget build. Very easy to install parts, especially with the removable drive cage. Lots of room for fans and great airflow. You can't go wrong with this one. |

This point is Large! I purchased it to replace my old desktop personal computer and to start building my personal, and in comparison to my old case...this point could actually match the old case completely inside of it. That shows how huge this truly is taking into consideration they are each mid-towers. This case feels truly strong, and it's just really quite to look at even with out obtaining all of the components inside of it but. I was expecting the front mesh to feel actually brittle and plastic-y, but it didn't. It feels as solid as the rest of the case. Yet another nice factor is that it came with a ton of added screws and stand-offs, which immediately came in handy when I went to place in my power provide. Totally nothing at all that I can tell so far is wrong with this case. It's the best I've ever had, in particular for the quality you get regardless of the low value! If you would rather commit additional of your funds on the elements inside than on useless, flashy LED lights that would typically come with the 赨 situations, I totally advocate this case. It's amazing looking, massive and spacious, solid in its style and building, and it does the job of defending your internal components. |

Its a modest HAF case what else to say, Cable management (check) , great airflow (check) strong construction (check) Want it was the 912 Advance with the painted interior. UPS sucks when they leave your equipment on the porch at five in the afternoon. |

Wonderful searching exterior. Tends to make a definite statement to those who see it that your machine indicates buisiness. A lot of area for high end elements. Supports the longest graphics card with HD cage removal. Awesome in each and every way. For 60.00 any individual with troubles with this case must be insane. Ok I wish it was painted black inside!!! I have 6 x 120mm Coolermaster fans installed. two front, two best, 1 side & 1 rear. Q9550 @ 3.2ghz with a Coolermaster TX3 with 2x 92mm Push-Pull fans . 8 gig OCZ DDR2 Ram @ 905mhz. EVGA GTX 275 Gpu. four x Seagate 1TB HD and anything runs very cool. |

1-Plenty of fan alternatives2-Fan filtersthree-Cable management is excellentfour-The value, seriously the best low cost case I've ever boughtfive-side expansion slot and removable hdd cage with selections 1-Only came with two 120mm fans, I need to obtain 2 200mm fans eventually2-The fan filters are just metal meshthree-USB headers will trigger BSOD if you dare insert improperly or even look at it strangelyfour-You have to remove both side panels to take away the front panel, and there is a noticeable crack involving it and the side panels exactly where you can see the gray interior. It's even worse if you're operating leds/ccfl.5-Left side panel needs a "fan filter" too Be careful with the front panel USB ports! I've currently BSOD 4 times working with them, requiring me to shutdown and energy cycle to get my other USB devices to function properly. It almost seems I have to use both hands to plug in a flash drive just as well insure it isn't going in crooked... |

I've been constructing computers for 20 years and this is the best "lower priced" case I have ever owned! Excellent quality metal, fantastic good quality components! Fantastic top quality fans! Very good cable management! Solid case, packaged effectively! Cooler Master rocks with this case! Much more fans would be nice, but given that I'm wise adequate to study the description I can't knock any eggs for it ;) Fantastic bang for the buck! Really nice! I was seriously impressed with this case, didn't expect this excellent! |

Plenty of space for what you want and of course the price tag. Obtaining at the front screens can be a discomfort and the inside could have been painted for those of us who mod their circumstances. If you are in the marketplace for a low cost, but very great case, look no additional then this a single |

The case is basic 2 Points and 1 is genuinely nothing. But the large point is consumer help from Cooler Master SUCKS!!! 1st off there is no number on there web page, rather you do a reside chat and Marvin...sorry brotha you are worse than a bag of bricks for Christmas. Everytime I asked him a question about something that confused me, I located the answer just before he even replied.The 2nd point is I kinda wish the LED on this case wasn't red. This is my 2nd create and my initial 1, the case I got had the clear side and the light up fans and and so forth. I grew up and actually this case is great. It is a grown man case. |

I scoured newegg and a couple of other locations for the greatest spending budget mid-tower case and IMHO I believe I found it. I got it for 59.99 and mailed in my ten$ rebate nowadays. The two installed coolermaster fans are really quiet and cooled down my cpu three degrees at idle and my gpu 7 degrees. I got a silenx 120mm red led for the front and my coolermaster 200mm for the top rated must be right here tommorow. Following adding both it should be even a lot more. The filter screens is just a second layer of the mesh grill on the cover and will perform, if only a tiny, to help preserve dust out. I thought possibly they have been a lot more like fiberous filters but, not sufficient to deduct an egg. I'm searching into getting the screens, i think by scythe, for my 120s n front and side. If you are prepared to spend just 25 a lot more dollars you can come across instances with a lot more stuff but, you get what you pay for and I'm quite content what i got but, am already wanting to upgrade but, it's not just the case, I'm looking into upgrading my whole method and if I do I will possibly maintain this computer fairly a lot the way it is. Which is aight. |

This will be my 1st case. I have spent the past two weeks looking for the great case. I required : bottom psu, front I/O (not prime), space for 300mm+ graphics card, side fan, and not too tall ླ-20" max) i ended up with these selections:CM haf 912CM haf 922 (big, not placing considerably into it 2od,1hdd)CM Elite 371 (top fans too close to mb, will need slim fans)Zalman Z9plus (no substantial fans, challenging to filter)Raidmax Helios (looks excellent, no top rated fan above ram)Enermax Luxuray (cool vegas fan, no prime fan above ram)I picked the haf 912 because it met all of my desires. This case is the roomiest smaller case on the industry nowadays. It will fit anything that a new builder would want to put into it, to consist of ANY SIZED graphics card.The whole point of this evaluation is this: If you are hunting for the ideal smaller mid tower with the greatest air flow then look no further. This is it. Most of these had been fixed in the sophisticated model* interior not painted* no huge fans incorporated* no bottom fan mount* plastic feet insted of rubber I truly just ordered the Advanced model of this case (can't get it right here).I can't inform you exactly where to get it, mainly because of the rules, but it is a COOLER MASTER solution. And it's a restricted item not distributed to retail Stores. * 2 x 200mm mega flo fans installed* 1 x 120mm fan installed* side window w/mount for 120려mm fan* black painted interior* esata on front I/O port* usb 3. bracket for 3.five" bay ƒ usb 3. ports)This is a wonderful deal. You would pay a lot more just getting a normal 912 and 2 mega flo fans.I was preparing on receiving the regular 912 w/ 2 x 200, 1x140 all red led till newegg ran out of the 200mm,and I was forced to appear at other selections. This when I am glad that Newegg can't look to hold their inventory stocked.I give the CM Haf 912 4 eggs,but the CM Haf 912 Advanced gets all 5.Wonderful job Cooler Master. |

Stylish looks, Built Good quality, Spacious (Tons of airflow), Removable bay for longer video cards, Cable Management slots, Offered accessories, Cost (best case you will uncover for the price tag imo) Only one particular locking mechanism (Not worth docking an egg simply because I only had 1 additional drive to mount.) Excellent vs Price is exceptional with this case. Quite a few have complained about flimsy metal sides, even so they appear sturdy and well created. |

Cons: - only came with one tool-less bracket for the 5" bays- one side panel had two thumbscrews, but the other had generic screws- only came with two 120mm fans, neither of which are very good- paint job is definitely on the cheap side
Pros: - decent room behind the mobo tray for cable management- works well enough for the price (paid $53 for it)- build a PC using this case for my brother and he's happy with this case (he chose it) so I can't complain about that- comes with a good amount of cable ties.- tool-less solution for the HDD bays work well Comment:
Overall, you get what you pay for. This isn't the best case (I have a 650D and I love it), but it does the job well enough with a bit of a rugged, LAN party look. Put some LED fans in there and you've got a not-bad looking case.See above for pros and cons (in my opinion) |
I really like working with this case. There were no issues finding the room to fit everything I bought.Some would like to have the front USB 3.0 and I'll admit that would be a great addition, but for me the USB 2.0 is just fine, as the only thing I plug in there is an Xbox 360 controller.The look of this case is very utilitarian but it has more than some of the more expensive cases on the market. The build quality is very solid and the price can't be beat.
