Cooler Master HAF 932 Chassis

On the eave of purchasing a new case for my PC, I ran across the new Cooler Master HAF(High Air Flow) 932. This case sports three 23cm fans, one each on the top, side and rear panels all running at just 700rpm. Even at the lower rpm there is plenty of airflow through this case. The case is made of steel, so ruggedness is definite. This case supports ATX, E-ATX and M-ATX motherboards, six 5.25-inch devices, five hard drives and if you have a need, two power supply’s.
It seems to be a combination of previous Cooler Master cases, like the infamous Cosmos case with its push-button locking mechanism. Also the case includes a similar PCI retention clip as the 690 chassis.
The front of this case sports an eSATA, Firewire, and four USB slots. However the USB and Firewire ports are relatively close together. But, for me at least, this is not a problem. Seeing as most of the things I plug into my front panel connections are only done so one at a time. Now as for the water cooling elements of this case. Well if after the immense air flow this case provides, you still feel as if you want/need water cooling, there is plenty of room to do so. This case, while designed around airflow, doesn’t seem to leave out any of the water cooling options. There are retaining holes built onto the rear panel for tubing, the top of the case sports a hole on the top of the case for refilling the reservoir whenever necessary, and if your choose not to have dual-PSU’s then the extra space inside the case is plenty to sport the reservoir itself.
