[ThaiPredator]

does this fit a gtx 570?

[jasontvnd]

@ThaiPredator it will take any graphics cards currently on the market , you can remove the lower hard drive bays and fit graphics cards upto about 16-17 inch in lengh

[rubix63]

is this the cm 690 ii or just the cm 690?

[kmanderson619]

Nice review, and a sexy case ^_^

[danker8]

Is this loud? Otherwise I might buy it.

[kmanderson619]

@danker8 Depends on your fans

[MrAlexmihai1996]

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupeeee­eeerrrr

[ionut452]

quick question ... I have a corsair A70 and is placed on an AMD Cpu .. and fans are one up one down, and wondering if it fits in addition to the two top fans

[notfound01]

i just bought it, its great, i'm wating for the processor and the graphic card and it's ready to use

[hassleholmstreetaren]

I did buy a 80 mm green led by zalman but i cant make it fit how do i put in the 80 mm in the back ??? PLz help i think its to fat the fan what inches its need to be to fit in the back

[hassleholmstreetaren]

I did buy a 80 mm green led by zalman but i cant make it fit how do i put in the 80 mm in the back ??? PLz help

[rabbit0087]

how much did it cost you to do all that??

[madbab00n]

my standard came with the window but clear...

[MummRa88]

Very good, I have standard edition and I'll open it this week for an annual cleaning and install a fan controller

[XuMpZ]

i am going to buy a new rig, i wounder if i need to buy extra fans or does the original fans do the job?

[damillionmalania]

@XuMpZ It probably depends a lot on what parts you want to put in the case. Some components get hotter than others. If you're going for a standard computer with "regular" parts (right now I'd say for example a Geforce GTX460, AMD Phenom II X4 965), and if you don't want to overclock anything 2-3 fans will do the job (I think I'll actually get mine with 3*120mm fans). If you're going for a Radeon 5970 and an intel i7-980 for example I'd definately get more fans though.

[Embalador]

Very good video! Congratulations!!!

[ajd2511]

very nice review

[TheProCarbon]

this is my dream case :D

[hakera19973]

This is very cool case but I want ATI version :)

[neonzion7]

@hakera19973 oh shit not that would be a sexy case. like the same thing but red themed =00000! lol

[GaminGBlinK]

its a shame that u build such a sheaty pc in that case it deserves more men.

[EddieLolz3r]

they should make a ati edition

[Au1594]

i think watching it being made was a cool effect

[VengeanceCo]

Pretty awesome review. Subscribed!

[LandB2312]

thanks for a detailed review. =]

[wiggygfe]

@QGamez if you want to get a 690 get the 690 II Advanced, if you like the Cosmos 1000 have a look at the Cosmos S. It really depends on if you want a full or mid tower

[bvabhi]

beatiful case

[aramistech]

Yes it is and it keeps all your computer hardware cool with all the fans.

[MrKontrol90]

@aramistech if ur using can u tell me the temps :D

[mitsostsagka]

That's an awesome Case!

[aramistech]

Yes it is really nice and it looks really cool if you change out the fans and put them to light up in green.

[mitsostsagka]

@aramistech Yeah, I know...

[worthyofgod1]

nice. i had a cm690 but destroyed it. so waiting till new one comes out :)

[aramistech]

Thanks. This is my personal case and it sure looks great. It is a solid case.

[dbugnet]

you look weird, but get my 5 star, help a lot on deciding to buy this version of case

[aramistech]

LOL. Some of us can't be as good looking as you. Thanks anyways for the 5 stars. You will love the case, it looks really nice.

[dbugnet]

just got mine today, against all the others said about tool-less expansion card fix, wich is plastic and may broke, case has screw holes so any broken can be easily subst with screws as usual on other std cases, thanks!

[aramistech]

You're welcome, glad you got it. I changed all the fans inside to light up green. Looks really cool.

[blastowner]

hey man, nice review and guide

i'm about to buy this case, because i love the looks of it. the only problem is that i am going to buy a motherboard with 1 chassis fan connector on it, do you think it wil work with the 3 fans inside the case. hope you can help me out ( i don't have much experience with building such PC's).

greetings

[LLOYD19851012]

case fans can connect to the power supply

[blastowner]

@LLOYD19851012 thx, for you reply, it really helped me out, now i'm going to buy this case.

thx very much for your help. (srry for if my english is bad i'm from the netherlands).

[aramistech]

Thank you, I appreciate it. Before you buy the case wait a few days. I will be showing you another which is my new favorite, it is also from coolermaster. Remember to subscribe to be notified when the video is released.

By the way, yes you can connect all the fans they use an adaptor to connect it to the power supply instead of the motherboard.

[aramistech]

Sorry I have taken long to respond. Thank you for your comment I appreciate it. By now you probably bought the case, you can connect the fans directly to the power supply connectors since the fans have their own adapter. Best of luck.

[RacerSTYX]

Awesome video!

I just got this case yesterday but i was curious to know what size fan did u use behind the motherboard? In the manual it says it only fits an 80x15mm fan but it looks like you used an 80x25mm fan.

Thanks =)

[aramistech]

Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. It is a nice case, I'm glad you got it. Once you put all the fans in you will see how cool everything stays inside. It is a little noisy with all the fans but it looks so damm cool. By the way, yes the fan is an 80x25 fits just right. Best of luck.

[BioDioxyde]

That was a good review, cheers man.

[aramistech]

Thank you. I appreciate it. Best of luck.

[TearsOfWar1]

Ima get this case it looks sweet :) also a big Nvidia fan.

[aramistech]

The NVIDIA case is the nicest, I mentioned before that I changed out the fans and put them all to light up in green so it looks really cool.

[orlanwer]

i have one , i love it>>>>> :D

[aramistech]

Yes it is a great case.

[EdvinDzafcic]

Very nice case I just got it for a second back up system, but that is by far one of the worst cable management jobs I have seen on youtube.

[aramistech]

The cabling is like that because the power supply I had did not have a sleeve on the cables. You can get one that has the sleeve and it will look nicer.

[henik9]

I have the regular CM-690 and I wish the LEDS were green instead of blue/ I want that see thru panel on the side as well.

[aramistech]

I bought fans with lights on it so now everything lights up green. You can do the same.

[Elmqviisten]

GREAT review!! Getting a new system with the normal CM690, can't wait :)

[aramistech]

Thank you, You will love this case. It looks awesome once you put everything together. Best of luck.

[WhiteHawk137]

This is a really helpful video, I've ordered a CM690 as well, and I know much more about this case now. Thanks!

[aramistech]

Thank you, I appreciate your comment. I glad the video helped you out. This is a nice solid case.

[TikiShootah]

at 03:30 Thank you!

just got my case and i was wondering how in the hell I was gonna pull this off using the sata connectors

[TikiShootah]

I already liked this feature but when you added a complete system build vid with this case I HAD to vote you.

great job

[aramistech]

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it. I'm glad you liked the video. I'm happy to say that this case is awesome. Best of luck.

[aramistech]

You're welcome. Best of luck.

[vegnagunSX]

hey i like tat casing , ready to hunt for the casing :DD . so do u know which motherboard is the best to fit in ? isit any motherboard can fit in ? or need to have certain motherboard to fit in ? can u name me list which motherboard can perfectly fit in ? thanks !!

[username112256]

its pretty big, I have an i7 motherboard and it fits perfectly, always read first but the case is big, really big.

[bobo51a]

perfect video

[redbullbiker1]

can a motherboard micro atx fit in it ^

[cdseatpizza]

yeh its form factore is mirco atx / ATX

[RyanK733]

Thanks for the fan info.

You learn something new about airflow everyday :)

[Colemanchea]

i was thinking of putting LED fans on the top,

does the mesh restrict the view of them much or?

[Panzerbataillon]

great video

[rajchowtee]

Great case building guide. I finally realise how to install the fans now. Who knows what I was doing previously. lol.. Cheers

[aramistech]

Lol. Yes the fans can be tricky but when used the right way you can create a great airflow to keep your rig cool. Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it.

[aramistech]

You're welcome. I glad you like it. Thanks for your comment.

[pillopants]

thank u man i really appreciate this vid. this has just help me solve my problem of bad cable/wire management OMG i LUV U..... no homo bro

[aramistech]

Hey thanks for the comment. When I see a comment like yours it reminds me everytime of why I started doing this. I also left people comments like that and I felt I wanted to do something in return so I started sharing info with others just as you would share it with a buddy of yours. Thanks again and no, no homo :-). Best of luck.

I wanted to mention that the power supply I used was not as nice, they sell some that have all the cables in sleeves which looks nicer and easier to put together.

[airjamin8tor]

Hey Excellent vid I have this case with a 790i mobo. Building it 1 piece at a time, with a few pieces still to go. Most informative on the vid

Thanks!!

[aramistech]

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. One other tip I wanted to let you know is that for the side panel fan you can buy a 120mm fan with a green LED on it and it will light up the inside of the case and make it cooler.

The fan will cost you on the internet about $10.00. I did it on my case and it looks great. Anyway thanks for your comment. Best of luck.

[firion03]

hey this was a great video the only thing that i would of like to say is how you put in the motherboard and how you wired the wires in the back i just brought this case going to be my first computer that i build i hope it goes will.

[aramistech]

Thank you for your comment. Building it will take some time if you want things to look good. But don't worry with a little patience and attention to detail you will be able to get it done. Best of luck.

[airjamin8tor]

I've also heard that the fan that goes behind the cpu needs to be 80 X 15 otherwise it binds...what did you use? curious

[aramistech]

Yes the fan is an 80mm fan which I show you in the video.

[blue98jettavr6t]

I just build my system may 06 and I cannot wait to build my next. Thats a sweet case.

[aramistech]

I'm pretty sure you will love it. This case is very solid in construction and the design for the fans is great. The Nvidia Edition also looks really nice.

The only complaint that I have about this case is WHY DIDN'T I GET IT BEFORE. :-)

[ChopperX]

I have this case and its amazing. I have 6 120mm fans. I didnt put one in the bottom but i love it.

[aramistech]

I bought 120mm fans but I realized after installing them that it also supports 140mm fans on top and at the bottom. The green light in the front fan adds an extra nvidia touch.

The plain cm690 lights up in blue in the front.

[aramistech]

Thanks, once you have all the fans running in the case you won't believe how cool it keeps all the components inside. It is a very nice case.

[everybodykillerz]

very nice case!!!
