Cooler Master HAF 932 Case Review

Innovations like three 230mm fans as standard, and a design geared to high airflow, the HAF 932 is worthy of my recommendation and an Editor's Choice award. The only negatives I can find are the lack of a motherboard tray that is removable and the small negative of an all steel construction due to the fact that I prefer aluminum in my cases construction. The case is very solidly built and will likely outlast most of the system components that are put in it. Cooler Master's HAF 932 case has many features found on much pricier cases including the IO area having both four USB 2.0 and external SATA ports. Thrasher2 our resident system builder liked the case so much he took it home to use in a personal system of his, and this over other cases we have here in the lab.

HEH...well, the reason for the hhmmmm...was that I posted something on that case a week ago.

Cooler Master HAF 932

My post then was 4 days after the "linked to post"....same as this one.

Anyway, it looks like Cooler Master has yet another killer case, at a VERY competative price.

Iria more than likely received the email from the source and failed to notice the date of the review when he posted this to the FP..

And with motherboards.org they tend to send them 3 or 4 days after the review hits there FP..

(PS. I seen this review yesterday and the date is the reason i did not post it myself)

And Buzzard, it would be good for your water-cooling too . I'm not sure I like the look as much as that of the Cosmos though...

Yeah I noticed that about the PSU. They just say that it gives you a choice of where to mount your PSU, but I thought the same thing....2 PSU's.

Actually, with my EXOS setup, the CM 690, and RC590's are layed out a bit better. With the space I have available, I have to put the EXOS on top of the case... so the 'stepped' design of the top on the 932 would make that problamatic. Also, the holes they have for routing in the coolant lines are danged close to the top. With the way the hose connectors are on the back of the EXOS, it may be too tight of a bend to get the lines thru there without risking a kink. But, it IS a full tower case, so maybe those diamentions just LOOK deceiving.

I'm so-so about the 'window' side as far as looks. It's OK, but where the 590 and 690 wouldn't be out of place even in an office setting, the 932 might not fit well there The 690 is the good looking, refined babe that you can take to the 5-Star resturant, or the local club, and she'll fit in well. The 932 is the 'club only' party girl.
