Nice case - very quiet

COOLER MASTER Elite 110 RC-110-KKN2 Midnight Black Steel / Plastic Mini-ITX Tower Computer Case
COOLER MASTER Elite 110 RC-110-KKN2 Midnight Black Steel / Plastic Mini-ITX Tower Computer Case

Pros: Well built. Solid. Easy access from almost all sides. A lot of room to put your MB in place despite its small size. Room for a full ATX power supply as well as room for multiple 3.5 HDD and 2.5 HDD/SDD although they do hang off the side and top of the case, which for me, was a little strange.

Cons: The case leads for the lights, power and reset buttons are well marked as what they are but they are NOT marked with + - polarization. Not sure if that really matters but for me connecting those to the MB was iffy but luckily I got it right the first time. YAY!

Overall Review: This case is a SMALL case. So know what you are getting into. This was my first computer build in years so I was a little nervous doing this again. So, if you do not like tight spaces, this case is not for you. And, for beginning builders, make sure you put as much together and plug as many things in as possible before installing your power supply. You need to remove the power supply to have room to change out most parts and reconnect leads to the MB for the most part. Not really a con but something to consider.

Most Critical Review

Nice MB but horrible wi-fi connectors

Pros: Solid motherboard. It is performing as well as I expected. Well built.

Cons: Documentation sucks for the most part. The documentation on how to plug in the case headers is terrible. The graphics shows that the headers should be plugged in one way but then reading down later on it says to plug them in perpendicular to how the graphic showed. Not misleading but confusing. The other issue I had was with the wireless card. The leads that go onto the card itself are worthless. I would connect them, apply pressure, hear a welcoming click and then barely touch the wire, falls off. Annoying as hades. Spent more time on that then anything else by far!
