I have been given the chance to review the mid sized CM690 from CoolerMaster, and I have to admit, I'm not quite sure if this case will hold everything inside my rig. I am skeptical because even in my full sized tower my 8800GTX barely fit at all. Skepticism aside, I'm going to take what I have and
Mike checks out a well priced mid-tower chassis from Cooler Master today which certainly isn't short on features. Today's article will take a look at one of their recent entries into the mid-tower market, the CM690. It takes some of their tried and true features and mixes it with a liberal dose of
This sleek, black enclosure sports a black mesh front and top with chrome dividers, tool-less installation, internal cable management system, and enough fan openings to create your own hovercraft. A bunch of other neat, little options are included, but I will mention those in the review - no need to
Pros
Did someone say fans?, Water cooling possibilities, Wire management, Tool-less installation
Cons
Cheap build quality, Flimsy front panel,
Poor port and button placement

Overall it is a nice case with enough room inside and decent fans included with it. But the cheap feel of some of the parts are a downside. I would expect more from 80+ dollar case. Does the job, but a 20$ beige case would have been just as good.

Overall, this is a good case. Make sure you have lots of room to put it. The front LED fan is a nice add-on. Recommended

This is a great case for under $100 in my opinion. It looks rather nice and it's easy to work in. The front panel is a pain to remove though.

This case is amazing. The airflow is great and this case never gets hot and it doesnt look ugly. It has enough space for my huge xfx 4850. Highly Recommended.

This is a very good case for the money. With 7 (possibly 8, if you buy something else) fan slots in the case, the case definitely lived up to the brand name. The inclusion of cable holders in the case also is a benefit, considering it helps with airflow as well with a neat cable setting. The tool-less latches for the hard drives and pci/pci-e cards are also quite sturdy. Also, for those who are using liquid cooling, this has two areas where the pipes can be fed into the case as well, which makes for a convenient benefit for those looking into water cooling. All in all, I am very happy with this case, and would definitely recommend it.

I bought this case when it is on sale for 65, for that price it is really a great case. It provides a lot of room, it has 6 case fan spots, I run with 5 fans, they cools my system really well. Someone complains it is hard to pull off the front panel, you just need to use more power. It is solid and it won't break. Just do it.

To pull the front panel off you need to use a lot of force. Other than that this case is very good especially at this price point.
