Great cooling easy set up lots of room

Pros: My pc Ryzen 5 2600x 1070 runs nearly 20* cooler than it did with the cooler master case I had been using, extremely happy have never been happy with the cooler master case. Tons of room to build in using a 360mm AIO currently wanting to do a custom loop in the future Set up in it was quick and painless

Cons: Only con is that there is not vertical GPU mount, only say this because it is pictured with a vertical mounted GPU and was hoping it would come with the option. I guess I would also say it doesn't come with any fans but I'd assume if you are buying this case if it came with 2 cheap fans it would do you no good but something to be aware of.

Overall Review: I'd highly recommend this case for the money it would be hard to beat, its the case I've been looking for.

Most Critical Review

Looks Great but Runs Hot

Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 ATX Mid-Tower with Front DarkMirror Panel, 3 Customize Color Trims, Tempered Glass Side Panel, Three 120mm ARGB Lighting Fans
Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 ATX Mid-Tower with Front DarkMirror Panel, 3 Customize Color Trims, Tempered Glass Side Panel, Three 120mm ARGB Lighting Fans

Pros: Looks Great Cools Decent when Front Cover is off Easy to build

Cons: Runs hotter than my cheap $30 case I replaced No Air flow coming from the front even with 3 fans Hot at idle and under stress not able to cool itself

Overall Review: Wish coolermaster would redesign the front cover so it doesn't completely block air flow pretty disappointed in this case. With the front cover off my 8320 oced runs at 64 degrees. With front cover on goes right to 74+ degrees, my old cheapo case would sit at 71-72 degrees.

Perfect for getting into sff building

SAMA IM01 Black Steel Micro ATX Tower Computer Case

Pros: Easy to build in. Decent options. Sturdy construction with all tool less panels. Able to fit larger PSU, GPU, and cooler Decent airflow.

Cons: This is on me but there are better looking cases that show off the build better, I was planning to have to hide cables and what not so was avoiding a glass side panel. But build turned out much cleaner than I expected.

Overall Review: This was my first step into a smaller form factor build, ended up being fairly cheap and decent. Have a full size 750w PSU, 3 fan 1080ti, and running a china server CPU MB combo. As I mentioned in the cons part I did not expect the build to end up this clean so I avoided a glass side panel but kind of wish I had glass now to show off the build. GPU benchmark fully closed up reached 75 degrees, side panel off 68-70 degrees. I'm only running 1 intake 1 exhaust fan at the moment will probably up that to get a bit more air flowing. Over all very happy with the build.

Decent compact case

Pros: Girlfriend loves the pink, decent to build in, fairly good construction, good air flow options, and aio cooling options

Cons: This kind of falls on me but a decent size GPU doesn't allow the fitment of the middle fan up front, I thought the fans would fit outside the case under the front cover but they do not. Construction is fine for a $50 case but not something I would consider premium. Hd ssd mounting is mehh but it works.

Overall Review: Case works well for what it is, would be perfect for someone with a smaller GPU. Looks sharp nice to build in but be aware it's slightly more compact than a standard case.
