The Cooler Master gamers department aka Storm send us one of it's latest creations : The Trooper case. We were impressed with the Enforcer case, being manufactured in typical Cooler Master style. Excellent craftsmanship, no rough edges at all. Packed with innovative design features like the removable Hard Drive cage. Excellent cooling out of the box and loads of room to upgrade. An ideal gamers case, as even with all the features it retailed at a price that was still very affordable. The Trooper case continues on the same pace. This time being a full tower design, it might have some extra cards down it's sleeve. Could it make your PC stand out from the crowd at your favorite LAN party ? Let's open up the box and see what the engineers of the Storm team came up with...
After losing many countless hours to a particular Elder Scrolls game, it is time to review another computer chassis. The Cooler Master Storm Trooper isn't a case that should be taken 'lightly'. First thing that comes to mind when I hear the words 'Storm Trooper' is Star Wars, but I guess that is what you would expect in this modern age. However, a quick history lesson would reveal that the term comes from Germany in World War I. Also known as a "shock troop", they are special solders that were trained specifically for breaching enemy defenses by skipping enemy strong points. While this might sound pretty logical to us, it was a revolutionary idea at the time. In fact, using infiltration tactics became a standard tactic towards the end of the First World War. Of course, like any tactic, the enemies learned how to defend against this type of attack as it became more common. Then, to top it all off, you have trench warfare, where the gains of an attack were typically minimal, and even successful attacks were not always truly successful. This is because newly acquired locations were often very difficult to defend from rear-facing attacks by the second enemy line. Got that? Meanwhile on my desk, the Cooler Master Storm Trooper is not what I would call a small, lightly equipped computer case. Considering it is a full tower chassis, supports quad SLI/CrossFire and XL-ATX motherboards, this case is what I would call heavy duty. The real question is whether or not it is effective enough for modern day hardware? Read on to find out.
When I first saw the Cooler Master Storm Trooper computer case I was very impressed by the aesthetics and had high hopes for it. With the system install completed I am very pleased with how things look and fit, and how neat the inside of the case looks, but the process of getting there was just more difficult than I would have expected.
Today we look at the newest addition to the Cooler Master Storm Line, the Storm Trooper. The Cooler Master Storm Trooper is a full tower case that has everything that has come to be associated with the Storm line, but Cooler Master has kicked it up a notch with customizable drive cages, room for dual internal mounted radiators, and other nice features. Join us as we look over the Storm Trooper and see just what Cooler Master has been up to.
We're going to make a bold statement and say that the CM Storm Trooper is the best looking case we have ever seen. The overall styling has perfect lines to complement the features and yet allows them to blend in with exceptional balance. A great example of this is the carrying handles.
Many manufacturers follow a generic trend when releasing a new computer case, but Cooler Master have caused quite a stir with the recent release of their Storm trooper chassis. Kitguru Lite takes a look at the chassis that looks custom made for Darth Vaders next gaming rig. Is the force really with Cooler Master?
In just over two years of reviewing I have seen many cases come and go, loads of ideas and implementations of some really creative solutions. I am pleased to say I have had the pleasure of working with some of the more expensive models as well as the majority of midrange and budget models. Rarely do I run across cases that cross those borders, but every once in a while you find that deal that you just can't pass up. It may be an offer of an unbelievable price, or it might just be exactly what you are looking for at the time. Either way, you just cannot keep yourself from adding it to your cart.
When you buy a case from CoolerMaster, you expect nothing but the best. This includes the overall build quality, the design, and even the performance. This case is no different giving us exceptional build quality whilst keeping the essence of CoolerMaster with fantastic design properties and amazing performance too.
Cooler Master is a name that's synonymous with high quality PC cases and superb PC cooling. The 690 II Advanced is a recent addition to Cooler Master's range of mid-towers, complimenting it's predecessors the 690 and 690II; or so they say. Let's see if it lives up to its expectations.
