Let's look at the standalone case first. The case's built quality is pretty good and having two handles makes it easy to move the case around. The removable top panel frame is good to easy maintenance and installation though I really wish Cooler Master di...

Around back we find seven expansion slots, a 140mm exhaust fan, and a removable power supply support plate. Slot-style screw holes allow the fan to be slid up and down to make room for radiator tanks and fittings, and a second set of screw slots are space...
High quality materials, modular interior, secondary 2x 120mm radiator mount on front, strong carrying handles.
Primary (top panel) radiator mount, which is standard on the Pro 5, must be purchased separately for the lowermodel MasterCase 5. Designed for radiators, the mesh front panel lets too much noise escape from fancooled internal components. Both version lack...

While the overall design of the case might not grab your attention right away the fit and finish is really what surprised me about this case. The SECC steel seemed to be some of the highest quality that I've seen lately. Nothing about this case is cheap...

Cooler Master has big plans for its products of tomorrow. Chief among them is modularity: as the company told us a couple months ago, its future product catalog will contain fewer items with more customization options. That customizability will be achieve...
The MasterCase 5 is a big, hefty case with some equally big ideas behind it—and they mostly work. The FreeForm system is more flexible than competing modular setups from Fractal Design, for example, especially for 3.5" storage. I found the family of add-...

& ANALYSIS The MasterCase 5 is as cool as they come and if you splurge on the PRO you definitely will not be disappointed. Excellent cable management and great being modular makes the price tag of $140 and $175 for the Pro a little more justifiable. The...

It's fair to say that when we looked at the MasterCase 5 and Pro 5 back in August of 2015 we were more than a little disappointed. Not because it was a bad case, but because it was marketed as a modular case that then hit the shelves without any of the ad...
As i'm writing this review we're a few days away from the NDA being lifted and at present we don't actually have the RRP for either the case or any of the accessories that will enable you to make a Maker 5 from either the Mastercase 5 or the Pro 5. As we...

We're in a day and age where most cases look the same, perform the same, and are generally either plain black boxes or over the top “gameresque” colorful light shows. As a result it's become difficult to stand out and create something unique in the case m...
I have to say this is the first case that has left me with a “What can I do next?” sense of curiosity that I've never experienced before. But, unless they bring more additional parts to the market, it may just feel like I've met an unfinished bridge with...

The MasterCase 5 is the base model of two new Cooler Master cases. These cases, from the MasterCase line, use their new “FreeForm Modular System”. Which seems to be all about accessories to modify both internal layout and the exterior of the case. The oth...
When I first saw pictures of the MasterCase 5, I had very mixed feelings about it. I liked that Cooler Master went with a more muted design, but I felt like maybe they went too far, as nothing about it really stood out to me. Seeing it in person, I certai...

Strap yourself in, this is going to be a rough one! Ok, first the good stuff. The CoolerMaster MasterCase 5 and Pro 5 are both very well made cases, in fact, and we don't mean this in a bad way, they are much better built than a lot of stuff we've seen fr...
