Cooler Master MasterBox E500L

The case came complete, including small hardware. In my opinion everything was included that would be needed for any combination of components. Edges are nicely finished to avoid small cuts, and there was no difficulty getting components into and out of the case. The cooling flow is front and bottom in, back and top out. Supplied cabling all worked OK. I like the front panel that slides up and down: up to provide best cooling; down to expose the two USB 3 ports. I purchased a top rated CPU cooler, and the temp barely rises even after being on a long time. The included fans are quiet. The power button/light is on top, so the computer can be started without sliding the front panel. The front fan has RGB lighting, but it is not obtrusive and can be turned off. The size is just a bit smaller than my old case, but is just right for an ATX build. Would recommend or buy again. However, the instructions are small pix-only, so this may not be the best choice for a brand new builder.

This case is almost perfect. I wanted to replace my 15 year old case. I had upgraded my internals a few years ago, but kept the same ole case. I wanted something new. let me preface by saying I am old school and need a optical drive. I did not want to give up my blu-ray drive. I could not believe how hard it was to find what I needed (windows, a few lights, certain dimensions to fit on a shelf) with an optical drive mount. I stumbled upon this one and it instantly became my favorite.This case is almost perfect, as I said above, and will dock it one star. It came with two fans, one of them blue, sweet!! However, they were 3-pin fans. Come on now, it's not 2000 anymore. My fairly new motherboard has 4-pin fan connections. No big deal right? Well, I still had to buy some adapters. The instructions could have been a little better. I was able to get through them, but I can see how others would have had issues (other website reviews). The side window is nice, but I do feel like it will probably scratch easy.All in all, I have had this functional for 3 days now and I couldn't be more pleased. My fan adapters will be in next week, so I will break it down, replace my old school adapters for more modern ones, and go to town from there. I highly recommend this case. I will update my review if that changes. Coolermaster, update your fans!!

im gonna start with the positives:-easy to build in-fits most mobo form factors-comes with everything youd expect a PC case to come with-matches the Asrock x570 Phantom Gaming 4 im currently using aesthetic.-the front mesh is fine enough that it helps keep larger dust particles out-even with an ATX mobo in it, there is still LOTS of room-i couldnt find any sharp edges anywhere, and i intentionally tried to find some sharp edges-the two fans it comes with up front are RGB and can be changed to pretty much whatever you want and can do several patterns-the RGB isnt "over the top"negatives:honestly, ive been really trying to find some bad things about it and the only thing i can come up with is that the hard drive bay isnt adjustable in the sense that you cant move the cage forward or backward to make more room for cables, so i do recommend using a fully modular power supply. there is room for a power supply that isnt fully modular, but you really have to "mash" the cords in, which could cause a short, but really, that is okay because at the time of purchase, i only paid $60usd (usd = US Dollar) and at that price, im surprised that is the only bad thing i can come up with about this case.the only other thing i wish is that the seller didnt use UPS to ship as it took two weeks to get to me. that isnt the sellers fault, really. that has more to do with the delivery service, however i wish there was an option to use a different delivery service entirely during checkout because UPS where i live is absolutely terrible. i was lucky i was standing outside my apt when they came because the UPS driver was going to drop it off at a wrong address, as usual. ive had thousands of dollars worth of stuff get stolen because UPS has a habit of dropping things off at the wrong address every time. again, that isnt the sellers fault i just wish i could have selected USPS as an alternate delivery service during checkout.

There are no instructions at all... just some b/w pictures and thats it. Luckys looks really good and the quality is also very nice. But it’s a headache finding what goes where.
