COOLER MASTER Centurion 541 RC-541-SKN1 Black Aluminum bezel, SECC chassis MicroATX Mini Tower Computer Case

Pros: Dual Rear 80MM Fan Ports, Single Front 120MM Fan Port (Great Cooling), Floppy/MMC Bay is removable so you can fit any sized video card. Motherboard spacers are already set for any sized MATX board. Construction is very high quality, even the front face has filter material behind the metal mesh and has a nice solid weight to it. Overall, It's a wonderful MATX case, well worth the money.

Cons: BTX design prevents having the front fan space line up with the video card (would of had plenty of room), instead removing the Floppy bay was the only alternative (since PCI-E was lined up with that bay). Not the manufactures fault, flaw with BTX and MATX together.

Other Thoughts: Using a ATI 4870X2 with metal bracket. Stills fits in this case nice and easy. Had this computer peiced together on a table in a room with AC, Runs COOLER inside this case, probably because of the small wind tunnel that is created pulls the heat from my chipset and ram pretty nicely.

Very Satisifed, +1 CoolerMaster

Pros: Looks amazing for the price.

Cons: Quality is so so. Fit and finish is poor. Power button could be issue looks like it's going to break.

Other Thoughts: I wish they charged more for it and made it better...

Pros: Small form factor. Easy to add components. No rough or sharp edges within the case. Can use ATX power supplies so one is not power limited. Room for long video cards.

Cons: Should at least ship with the front 120mm populated. The upper 3.25" bays will not work with hardrives without some modifications.

Other Thoughts: All in all a good small, light case that would be great for Lan parties.

Pros: Very solid build. Nice aesthetic. Fairly easy to work in, even with big hands.

Cons: They intend for you to mount your HDD in the bottom front corner, which is the exact opposite side of the case as the PSU. Needless to say, the power cable wouldn't reach, so I had to mount mine in one of the floppy bays.

Other Thoughts: There is some foam in the front panel behind the metal mesh. I'm not sure if you're intended to leave that in or not, but I did and dust gets trapped in it. After I removed it, no more trapped dust, but you could easily see the gray metal case behind it.

Pros: + looks
+ size. Perfect tower for on top of a desk. Holds plenty of drives.
+ ventilation. Option for (2) 80mm fans on back and (1) 92mm or 120mm fans on front. Side panel snorkel for direct air onto CPU heatsink. Side panel vents for fresh air direclty to graphics card/power supply.
+ power and reset buttons are VERY solid
+ excellent tool-less drive locking mechanisms

Cons: - ZERO clearance for power supply, drive data cables, front panel connection lines to go between the motherboard and the upper most drive bays. Due to the inverted motherboard orientation this puts these cables directly over the front panel connection block and the SATA ports. MESSY!
- Tall RAM heat sinks need not apply if you are using tri-channel RAM. There is only a hairs breadth of space between the top of the heat sink on the standard height DIMM module I used when installed into slot A-2 (A-0 and A-1 are totally clear, even B-2 is fine) and the hard drive cage. Dual channel RAM systems should be fine since they generally only have 4 slots at most (A-0, B-0 A-1, B-1).

Other Thoughts: This case appears to be converted from a BTX design. Even the drive locks are labeled with BTX. I used an OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W modular P/S for this build. Like many P/S today it has a bottom mounted 120mm fan. With the inverted mother board arrangement of this case it put the P/S fan face to face with the fan for the GTX450 graphics card. Initially I was concerned about two exhaust fans facing each other creating a low pressure pocket in between thus starving each device of cooling air. Luckily there are ample ventilation holes in the side panel directly above so each device is pulling in cool air from outside the case. Nuff said.

Pros: Very well made (as I've come to know CM for), enough room for a full sized PSU. motherboard standoffs are already installed. Front panel has decent protection from dust with foam filters. Optical drive locking feature works well, seems to hold drives in place well.

Cons: There isn't a removable side panel for the motherboard. This is probably just a limitation of microATX cases. The hard drive placement is very odd. Why not mount it below the CD drive bays? Cable management was quite easy except for running the power to the hard drives at the bottom of the case from the top.
Having the power supply at the top of the case is so 90's.

Other Thoughts: Get the hard drive mounted below the 5.25" bays, and get the power supply mounted at the bottom of the case and you'd have 5 stars. An additional side panel for cable management wouldn't hurt either.

Pros: The case is of sturdy construction. Installing components is, literally, a snap!

Cons: None

Pros: Sturdy
Modular
Tool-less HDD bays and sleds - neat
Telescoping CPU air intake
Really nice plain aesthetic
Smooth finish
No clear panels, nice subdued LEDs on the front
Nothing glows

Cons: Comes with no fans, which I probably should have realized

Other Thoughts: I know that the fans that come with cases are usually junk but I was just looking to build a little nothing midrange tower. Buy fans.

Pros: Perfect subdued compact case for a micro atx
The thumb screws and HDD cage rails make it a breeze to assemble. Enough "natural" ventilation through the sides & back that extra fans are not needed for a low wattage build. Lacks bright and obnoxious lights. Two external 3.5" bays

Cons: Too small for a powerful gaming rig, long PSU cables become a problem. But that is Micro Atx.

Pros: Decent case.

Overall constructed well, decent expandability.

The bottom hard drive cage is removable so if you would like to add more drive you can. Also, the inverted mobo mount works well for many microATX applications.

The intake fan on the side of the case has an interior shroud that encases a decent sized heat sink so you can get directed air flow to your processor/heatsink. Dual 80mm fans at the rear allow for quick exhaust of the CPU heat from the case without it getting to your video card and making matters worse. This case does allow for a decent sized video card as well. You are also able to remove the 3.5" bay at the center of the case to utilize that area for a larger graphics card boards. This way, you could use the bottom mount HDD cage to build a gaming rig.

All and all decent case.

Cons: Two cons for this case and the reason I removed 1 egg.

There is no upper exhaust for the case (which I knew before I purchased.).

The second is the power button on the front of the case. It tends to get sticky after about 6 months of minimal use. I live in a non-smoking, very clean home and I still had issues with it. I had to tear apart the front button assembly after about 8-9 months of minimal use to lubricate the power button so that it wouldn't stick in the "on" position.

Still not a reason to not buy the case.

Other Thoughts: Very versatile case for your money.

Cooler master has yet to steer me wrong and I've purchased 3 cases and probably 40 fans from them.

Keep in mind that the board is oriented on the opposite side of the case when planning for placement of your tower within the home (air-flow is our friend).
