Cooler Master HAF 912 Advanced Computer Case 'ATX, microATX, USB 3.0, Mesh Side Panel' RC-912A-KKN1

I highly recommend this case to anyone with a mid or high-end set of PC components in need of a case with adequate airflow and room for expansion. This case is astoundingly quiet and very roomy. 2 x 230mm intake at the side and front near the bottom mean intuitive air flow (i.e. ambient intake at bottom, exhausts at roof and rear where the hot air of components rises to) along with 1 rear exhaust 140/180mm fan (it's one of those) and 1 top exhaust. I installed an extra roof exhaust fan, the Cooler Master MegaFlow 200 with LED for its impressive cooling and sound properties. All in all, the setup work very well. On top of the HAF X, my upgrade also encompassed buying a new CPU and motherboard and RAM. The CPU is an i7-4770k with a Corsair H100i water-cooling kit and the temperatures are the lowest I've ever seen on a CPU (pretty much ambient temperatures across all cores) when not under intensive load. This is surely a testament not only to the CPU cooler but also the case itself. The H100i radiator block fits very nicely in the case on the roof and the dual 200mm exhausts help it do its job very well. Installation-wise, this case made things very easy. It is very roomy and even includes features I was not aware of prior to recieving the case, like the graphic card cooling duct which allows a single 140mm fan to be installed in a graphics card cooling role, taking in air from the front 230mm fan. On the topic of the front 230mm fan, it is a very nicely placed fan in that it cool any drives you might install in the ironically named 'hotswap' (because drives there basically won't even begin to get hot) bays down below, keeping drives at a very desirable temperature. Cable management is made easy in this case thanks to various features like gaps in the motherboard tray made specifically for the purpose of feeding cables through. These helped a lot during installation. The front panel is a nice design also, with a cover for the on/off, reset, and fan LED buttons which comes in handy. The plethora of available ports on the front end is also convenient. All in all I highly recommend this case and wouldn't want any other. For a decent PC you want a decent case, and this looks the part as well as doing great justice to the components it houses with its unrivalled cooling performance.

UPDATE. This case fits a ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 in it. With the front facia off, put the 2 140mm fans on the outside of the case with the radiator on the inside and screw them together. The facia doesn't fit exactly flush as the fans are 27mm depth so I replaced with 2 Noctua140mm x 25mm fans. Or you could put both fans and radiator on the inside of the case, which is ok but reduces the the max length of the GPU by 27mm For some reason this case is not available from UK vendors which is a shame as there is nothing I dislike about it. I had reservations about ordering from abroad but it arrived in pristine condition, several days earlier than expected. I was kept informed at every stage of the delivery and even got a text on the day giving me the hour in which it would arrive. For a Ryzen build I needed an ATX case that would fit in my modified TV stand and accommodate a Noctua NH-D15 with 2 fans. This fits the bill perfectly. With plenty of clearance above the cooler. The build quality is top notch and it looks fantastic IMO Because this case is also a test bench, installation is a breeze. The top, sides and front panels can be removed in seconds, giving you easy access to your motherboard from every angle. No more trying to fit your hand and a connector into a tiny space. The MB tray can also be removed for easier installation. Swapping fans or installing a radiator is simple. Because all six sides of this case are ventilated, cooling is also a breeze ( literally ). All the messy stuff like the PSU , HDDs and cables are in the basement so good air flow is assured. You could fit 2 reasonably sized GPU's in it and because the MB lies flat there's less worry about GPU sag. In summary a brilliant case/test bench.

I have just thrown this purchase into the council recycling skip. It was an Amazon warehouse buy. The 30 return window is gone. It is unsellable on ebay. Never again will I waste my money on Amazon Warehouse. From delivery, the case's plastic side panel was falling off. I spent £10 on black oxide 3.5 bolts and nuts to repair the side panel. OK. Next, I intended to upgrade the cooling. I bought same brand Coolermaster specified size fan to add to the top of the case. It would not fit. It was the right size in theory but you have to saw off the edges, drill holes etc etc. etc. So I went for a "rescued" fan from ebay. This did fit- just, but how geriatric was the "rescue" - my guess is 10+ years - and what if I had to replace the other fans? Then I discovered only 1 of the 5 case fans could be replaced. They just dont make these sizes any more. (I recently discovered that Lian Li have started designing "unique size fan" cases. I will NOT be buying one of those.) So, thinking this was a gaming build, I decided( Screw The Fans!) to do water cooling. Coolermaster says this case is designed for that, right? Wrong! No fitting holes for radiator AND you have to cut out structural portions of the top to get any aio to fit. The case turned into a money pit.

Fantastic case, loads of space which makes cable management very simple and adding new components is easy. It's a good solid build with excellent air flow from several large fans, and so isn't the quietest case in the world but not unreasonably loud. Only giving 4 stars as some of the thumbscrew holes did not line up and I had to bend the panels slightly to make it fit. The PSU cable cover and GPU bracket are useful additions which give a finished tidy appearance.

Après avoir eu un Zalman Z3 Plus pendant un an et demi, que je déplorais particulièrement vu sa faible solidité (ports USB en façade morts en quelques mois, visserie qui foire au bout de deux ou trois revissage), mais également avec la crainte que mon imposant Noctua NH-U12P-SE2 ne casse ma carte mère en deux malgré les vis serrées à fond car celui ci penchait dangereusement, j'ai opté pour ce boitier HAF XB EVO car celui ci proposait de fixer la carte mère à l'horizontale. Le boitier se démonte de partout, vous pouvez absolument tout enlever, du couvercle jusqu'au plateau où repose la carte mère. Il est également extrêmement bien ventilé, grâce à cela je n'aurais plus peur de jouer cet été. Les deux slots avants pour y mettre des HDD en hotswap est génial, idéal pour brancher des HDD récupérés sur d'autres PC. niveau design, le boitier a de la gueule. il est imposant, mais pas trop non plus, et est facilement transportable avec ses deux poignées latérales. avec ce genre de boitier, je ne suis pas près de racheter un modèle vertical, merci Cooler Master ;)

フルタワーなのでサイズはミドルタワーより少し大きめですが、その分作りはしっかりしていて、パーツ同士の干渉も気にする事が無いくらい空間にゆとりがあり、裏配線なども簡単に出来ます。それに空間にゆとりがある事でエアフローもばっちりで熱がこもるって事もありません。ＰＣの置き場所に余裕があるのならおすすめのＰＣケースです。

-Pontos positivos: *Muito espaço para montagem; *A construção do gabinete facilita a montagem e manutenção. Principalmente a limpeza já que as placas ficam montadas na parte superior do gabinete; *Organização de cabos na parte inferior é um diferencial nesse gabinete, achei perfeito; *HDs na parte fontal com fácil acesso. Na minha opinião, ficariam melhor posicionados na lateral do gabinete por dentro, exatamente igual ao compartimento de SSD/HDs do fundo e com mais ventilação sobre eles; *A espessura das chapas de metal do gabinete são excelentes, são muito rígidas; *Muitas aberturas para ventilação. *Gabinete é modular, tudo pode ser montado e desmontado. Não há partes destacáveis, ou seja, o que for removido pode ser colocado de volta no lugar. Perfeito! -Pontos negativos: *O conector do cabo de energia dos compartimentos frontais dos HDs deveria ser soldado na placa; *A ventilação dos compartimentos frontais dos HDs deveria ser melhor. O encaixe é bonito, mas o problema poderia ser contornado ser todos os HDs ficasse na lateral, semelhante ao compartimento de SSD/HD que existe na lateral esquerda ao fundo do gabinete; *Os furos no alto da ventilação do gabinete não tem uma distância padrão, então não é toda fan/ventoinha de 200mm(20cm) que vai servir. Minha avaliação final: É um excelente gabinete, muito bonito e prático, bem planejado, diferente de tudo que já vi. Acredito que, para quem vai montar um computador com "air cooler pesado" seja uma boa opção pois o cooler fica apoiado sobre a placa mãe, não de lado. Gabinete quase perfeito, gostei.

Good

Es una caja impresionante con unos acabados de alta gama. Se deja trabajar y que le metas una buen sistema para jugar en su interior, que ocultes y dejes todos los cables bien ocultos para que quede un perfecto flujo de aire. Ademas, prácticamente separa fuente, discos duros y demás componentes secundarios, de lo verdaderamente importante y que necesita una buena refrigeración, la gráfica y el procesador. Gracias a su multitud de huecos puedes hacer un trabajo perfecto de cual te puedes sentir muy orgulloso al darte la posibilidad de dejar prácticamente ningún cables a la vista. En mi caso le he metido dos buenos noctua de 14mm delante y uno de 12mm detras dejando un buen sistema de refrigeración. No es que sean malos los 2 de 12mm que trae, pero con 2 de 14mm la ventilación es perfecta. Entran disipadores de procesador muy grandes, lo malo, es que se pierde la posibilidad de meterle un ventilador de 20mm en la parte superior. Yo tengo un disipador noctua en el procesador de 16 cm y por eso me falta un 1 cm para que me entrase un ventilador de 20mm arriba. En cualquier caso no me parece necesario. Mi tarjeta gráfica, una gtx 970 g1 gaming, entra sin ningún problema. Se podrían meter perfectamente 2 mas. Otra cosa muy importante es los sistemas de discos duros y lectores de discos, son todos faciles de colocar y sin herramientas. Lo malo es buscarle un hueco para que quede bien. Lo ideal es meterla en la parte de abajo de una mesa de tv, consiguiendo así el perfecto equipo para jugar y que a su vez quede elegante y discreto. Definitivamente es una caja perfecta que probablemente me dure muchos años gracias a sus infinitas posibilidades de expansión.
