Cooler Master prepping HAF X case

Posted on Tuesday, January 12 2010 @ 17:13 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck
FUD Zilla met with Cooler Master at CES 2010 and saw a prototype of the upcoming HAF X case. The site published some information about the case, but wasn't allowed to take any pictures because the design of the case isn't finalized yet. They did take a shot of Cooler Master's boothbabes though.
We can tell you that the case comes in black, has 4 exposed 5.25-inch bays, while two of them are HDD bays, really easy to use. You can even plug an SATA HDD on top of the case and mark it work, which is something really useful. There are five 3.5 inch bays and all of them are hidden.

You should be able to fit all mATX, ATX and E-ATX boards inside. If you still not convinced that this is the case for you let us tell you that it comes with a front mounted 230x30mm red LED fan. You’ll find two 200x30mm fans and one 140x25mm in the rear of the case. Side 200x30mm fan comes as an option. Front and top coolers are 19dBA at 700 RPM, while the rear one is a 1200 RPM unit with a nearly inaudibly 17dBA of noise.
