Cooler Master MasterCase Maker 5t Computer Case 'ATX, microATX, Mini-ITX, USB 3.0, Tempered Glass Side Panel' MCZ-C5M2T-RW5N

The mastercase pro 3 is what I got. Had it for some time now and delayed doing a review on it so I can now make a fair one. First the drawback, the only drawback that may be a turn off for some people(not me), is that the case is about 10% larger than a conventional matx case. I've put the mastecase pro 3 side by side with the vivo smart case micro atx(model CASE-V06, look it up) and the physical measurments as well as how both look in real life, has the mastercase pro 3 being about 10% larger. It is taller, longer and wider than the vivo smart case though it is not by much. It actually fits in the same space the I had the vivo smart case in. The measurements of the mastercase pro 3 also fall WITHIN the measurement spesifications that all matx cases have so there's that.Now the pros, there's lots, some that i may even overlook so bear with me. This case is quality build, its premium built, the metal framings and panels, the plastic parts and panels are all very sturdy and resistant to rust and scratches. I've had the case for some time now(2 years+) and actually bought a second one for another build I did in december, I opened it many times to clean, swap around parts, rewire etc. There are alot of motherboard screws, pcie plate screws, fan screws, stand off screws etc to the point where there are at least 2 or 3 spares of each screw type. All are black. The screws that hold the side panels on both sides hang on to the panel itself when taking off the panel so u cant lose them. The backplates for the pcie slots are modular as well. You can remove them and put them back easily.The areas where the top and front fans are mounted have brackets, REMOVEABLE brackets with thumb screws that also hang on so you dont lose them. You can remove them, fit in your fans then put the bracket back in with the fans installed on em. The main purpose of these brackets however is to hold radiators snugly without taking up actual case space. You see, these brackets arent just flat frame pieces that hold fans, they have a "protrusion" so to speak which the fans sit on the inside of. Ideally they're for radiators that are used in liquid cooling builds. The prorusions enable the radiator to sit on the inside of the frame's protrusion so it wont take up space in the case when mounted. If you mount an aio anywhere on the top or front of the case, u will not see the radiator if u look though the translucent side panel unless u bend your head down or forward to look up or back. The top, back and front parts can hold 120 and 140 mm fans, 1 behind, 2 on top, 2 in front either 120 or 140 for each. The top an front support radiator sizes of 240mm or 280mm, again the radiators fit snugly on the inside of the fan bracket.Another forte of this case, where it shines also, is cable management. Its well thought out and, again, its what you will find in any premium built case or cases that go for over 100 dollars usd. The gromets(2 gromets) for cabling are thicc rubber, if you have way too much wiring that wont fit neatly through the gromets, you can use the long side plate thats right next to the gromet by running thin wires through the small holes or running fat/flat wires below the plate into the motherboard. The plate blocks the view of the wiring behind it so it still appears neat.There's also a large plate that seperates the inside case creating two seperate spaces. This plate also has a gromet(giving the case have a total of 3 gromets) so u can run the graphics card power cable thought it, directly to the graphics card's pcie pins. This same plate/divider also doubles as an area to mount a maximm of two ssds on top or below the ssd covers. I put both my ssds on top the covers so as to give them better cooling since the air passes over them easily. The psu area and drive cages, which are located BELOW the large plate seperator and are well hidden with a titnted acryllic cover attached on the inside of the side panel, are placed behind and infront of the case respectively, leaving some space in the middle to put the extra cabling from the psu instead of putting all of it in the back sidepanel behind the motherboard. So you can either put some of your extra cabling in that middle space or you can put all of it behind the motherboard on the side panel, pick and choose.Overall this case is future proof, you can do whatever the hell you want in it be it liquid cooling later on, putting an action figure, room for more wiring like rgb stuff AND you can buy accessories later on for form and/or function. There's extra drive cages sold seperately, theres a glass side panel sold seperately, although that will show the bottom area where the psu and stock drive cages are, there's even a large led plate(red blue or white) sold seperately! That also divides the case space but if you use this you lose the ability to mount 2 ssds and the gromet hole which the stock plate has.This case is true to what cooler master advertised it as: Modular case with adjustabe, upgradeable, swappable parts.I paid 50 dollars sale price for the first mastercase pro3 i bought a two plus years ago when it just came out. This one I actually paid more for it, about 70usd equivalent, I cant find it anywhere anymore in the US or UK region for less than 80 usd. This one showed up on amazon for 70 so i bought it. Its an old model, sorta limited run case(2016) so i guess thats why there aren't much for sale again but it does and will stand the test of time. I can already testify to that based on having one for over two years now and bought another one in december 2018.Picture shown is a pc build done in 2016/2017(2 year old pc) which is made up of:AMD R5 1600X @ 4.0ghz 6 core processor(3.6ghz is stock, overclocked to 4.0ghz using wraith prism from new build)XFX RX 480 8GB GTR Black Edition graphics cardCorsair Vengance LED(red) 16gb (8x2 kit) @ 3200mhz RAMMSI Gaming Pro B350m motherboardSan Disk 120gb SSD(two)Western Digital 1tb HDD(two)Thermaltake SMART Series 600W Power Supply(flash from cammera along with white background blurs out branding)

Fantastic case. big. sturdy, pretty. managed to manage all the cables nice and neat and it keeps my system cool for long periods of time on a hot summers day. Plus with the front panel.. its pretty much silent.

one of the best case ever used. Clean construction and easy to install ATX motherboard. Easy to install Hard Drives, Radiators and other computer components.

Great case, good quality, looks good and ROG design, I'm really happy with that.

It looks really great and it is quite functional BUT - it is not a water-cooling friendly . Front and top support only up to 280mm radiators . U may install some 360 rad on the front but that require to remove front drive bay. It is also too expensive. Now I think that In-Win 509 would be a better choice.

A PC case for £200. What a f***ng joke.
