Cooler Master N400 - Mid Tower Computer Case with ATX Motherboard Support, Multiple 240mm Radiator Support, and Ventilated Front Panel

Real nice case to build with. Extremely easy to fit everything in there that I had (nothing fancy, biggest component was the GTX 570 and it fit no problem). Having the power supply at the bottom is real nice, it makes sense and it works perfectly. Plenty of room for proper cable management as well.The first one I was sent was damaged due to shipping (accordion-like box damage), stupid me I forgot to check the case before building and had the motherboard and everything in there mounted and then realized that yeah, the case had a big dent in it causing it to flex and so my video card wasn't able to fully seat down into its slot. It was at this point that I realized the case did have damage.So word of advice, make sure there's no dents in your case before starting your build. Amazon was great as always though with getting the replacement here fast.

Ah, there are a few inherent problems with this case. I really like that front is mesh, as it allows for a lot of airflow. Cooling should not be a problem with this case.However, cable management can be a problem. First of all, the PSU is mounted on the bottom, and the motherboard mounts near the top of the case. So you have thick power cables crossing the middle of the case. Maybe if the PSU is completely modular the cables might not be so bad but my PSU is only partially modular and the main 24 pin and the 12v cables are thick. There is very little clearance between the motherboard and the top of the case, and mounting a radiator or some case fans at the top is very difficult. If you use a large aftermarket CPU cooler, it'll probably be impossible. In my case, the ATX 12v and two fan headers are right at the top of the motherboard, which creates an absolute mess.Also, the filters at the top are somewhat useless, unless you're planning on using that for intake (I'm thinking that it's for exhaust, however).The tool-less SSD frame is somewhat flimsy, but usable. However if you plan to install fans on that door, you cannot use the frame.Other than that, the price is good, and the case itself is solid and it does look nice. I've always liked Coolermaster cases, and despite those few issues, this is a good case for the price. With careful planning the cable management issues can be mitigated, and using a closed loop watercooler may help with the space issues as well (I thought about installing one and mounting the radiator on the right side panel but making it an intake instead of an exhaust).

For the price, this case seems like a pretty good deal. I used it for my first build in a long time, and it seems relatively solid, has good airflow (or at least a lot of grilles through which air can move, and a lot of fan slots), and everything fits easily.My biggest nitpick is that the manual listed one type of screw as being paired with the M/B standoffs (at least, that's how I read it) when in fact that type of screw didn't fit and another type was called for. In fact, the most numerous (by far) included type of screw doesn't seem to be useful for much of anything besides screwing in cards to the back of the case, while I'm running low on the one that's actually useful after installing only the M/B and one drive. Overall this was a bit confusing and frustrating for someone whose PC building skills are, to put it mildly, rusty.Another nitpick is that there aren't really any provisions for cable management, not even any dedicated holes through which I could thread zip-ties. I used a bunch of holes that I'm not using for other purposes (like the radiator mount) but obviously that's not ideal.Besides those minor things, though, I didn't have any issues with the case and the build went well. I expect the case to last a long time, and it doesn't look like it crawled off the set of 2Fast 2Furious (the video card is a different story). Based on those positives, and the low price, I think four stars are warranted.

I really like the layout of this case. The build and material quality seem good. The mesh screens over the fans really help keep dust out. I was having a lot of heat problems with my old case. After moving everything over to this new one - no more problems.The connectors for the 2.5" trays are pretty neat - tool-less clips. The fans are really quiet too.
