Re: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
Looks good. CoolerMaster really makes a lot of good stuff.
The only noticeable thing is that with the graphics card right next to the edge of the case and with that grill there, you will need a quiet graphics card.

Re: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
Its a great case very solid and very quiet,with three fans running at stock settings I could not hear it unless I was right on top of it. and the vents on the sides are necessary for good air flow.Originally Posted by realneil

Re: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
It would only be a problem with a loud card installed,......I used to have a 4870 that sounded like a vaccuum cleaner when it was powered up.
It does look like a damn nice case though,....

Re: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
Yep they did a good job on the inside with the layout, and its half the height of the Prodigy, and more apt to fit on an equipment rack as an HTPC.
The Prodigy would be a bit better as a gaming case. The CM Elite 120 is more suited to do HTPC. but can do either or.

Re: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
For 50 bucks, that is incredible. Just too bad the front is ugly as sin. If they could fix that, Id be all over it for a living room PC.
