CM Storm Trooper Case Review |
|
We usually don’t like to recommend cases above USD 150 simply because we think this is the maximum price users must pay for a case with all the features possible. The CM Storm Trooper, however, has so many outstanding features that we think that it brings a good value for the enthusiast looking for a full-tower case to build the ultimate high-end gaming system. For the average user, however, there are more affordable options on the market.

Cooler Master Storm Trooper (SGC-5000-KKN1) Full Tower Case Review |
|
I will not only recommend, but I will be putting this chassis on a pedestal as I gloat about everything it has to offer anyone looking for a large case with aggressive looks and styling to match its tough Trooper name. As I mentioned earlier, I wish you could just run out and buy one now to see and admire everything I am seeing first hand, but you will have to wait as stock is currently being shipped for release that will be here very soon. For everything Cooler Master delivered in the Storm Trooper chassis, the MSRP of $189.99 is a true bargain for this super solid design! |

Cooler Master Storm Trooper Case Review |
|
Firstly, the outward appearance of the case is exceptional as it manages to nicely combine a clean look (through the side panels) with a more aggressive and rugged visual style seen with the top and front bezels. Traditionally I tend to prefer a cleaner looking case, but I have to admit the Storm Trooper really transcends the standard design and should appeal not to gamers and enthusiasts, but just about any type of DIY system builder. Along with the aesthetics, the Storm Trooper also includes a very robust feature set. The most unique is the two top mounted handles which serve to make the already big case easier to carry. This is going to make it easier to either haul the Storm Trooper to LAN events, or just carry it over to a friend's house. The handles are reinforced to the chassis and can support up to 95lbs. Since most cases equipped with all high-end hardware will still fall well under the maximum weight threshold, the handles should be usable regardless of the type of hardware installed inside the Storm Trooper. In addition, the Storm Trooper has ample room for high-end components. This is going to allow the user to install and transport all their extreme gaming gear, which could give them the advantage over gamers that choose to sacrifice hardware performance for a smaller and more portable rig. To be sure, while the handles are going make transporting the case easier, they are not going reduce the weight of the case; they're simply a means to give users a better grip on the case. A heavy case is still going to be a heavy case regardless of handles, and if you have a hard time carrying around heavy equipment the Strom Trooper is still going to be hard to lug around. On top of portability, the Cooler Master Storm also includes features such as damage resistant rubberized outer surfaces, an impressive top mounted control panel, support for up to 14 SSDs, ample room for all of today's largest components and accommodation for multiple water-cooling configurations. All of this makes the Storm Troop an ideal case for any gamer, and at $189 it is well below the price of other high-end cases such as the Corsair 800D or Thermaltake Level 10 GT. |

Cooler Master Storm Trooper Full-Tower Case |
|
The Cooler Master Storm Trooper is a pleasure to work with. It's a very solid and high quality case, and it provides options that only $200+ cases provide in this category of cases. We can definitely see lots of creative water cooling setups and modding projects with the Trooper, and with the XL-ATX motherboard support, we wouldn't be surprised if many enthusiast gamers would use it for extreme 3 or 4-way SLI and CrossFireX systems. The CM Storm Trooper is very customizable, so it should be quite |
