DH Review: Cooler Master Centurion 534
Read the review here
_________________________ As we know Cooler Master have been specializing in cooling for some time now but in recent years they have expanded their product range to appeal to a much wider sector of PC enthusiast. We know about their heatsinks and fans but now they offer great PC cases, power supplies that are SLI certified and anything from computer ducting, cold cathodes to front panel displays, cables and more. Today we get the chance to look at one of their mainstream PC cases, the Centurion 534. |

be forwarned that you'll have to snap the supports between the slots for cards that are a 2 peice slot design such as some of the ati or nvidia cards.
This is not difficult, using a set of a pliers and appling a bit of presure up and down, yo can make a clean snap.... allowing one with a graphics card that takes up 2 slots.. to fit in snug and without issues. this is prevailent in both this case and the Centurion 532 (3 of which i have currently) I really like the quick tooless snaps for each slot.. they are very snug and fit nicely..... unlike other solutions that if you have a double slot video card.. is impossible to secure it properly... or even install it at all without removing the quick clip device and using screws. Foxxcon has a few cases that don't work with the double slot video cards.. (but there rest of teh case is excellent).

no it doesn't matter if your in SLI or crossfire setup mode..
if you have a Double Slot designed Video Card, it will not sit right in the slot enless you break those clips.. if you are running a crossfire/or sli config, and those video cards are double slot design... you'll have to break/snap those supports as well when you install the double slot card into the case, you'll know exactly where and why you gotta break them.  those little supports that stick out a little ways that i have circles.. the top is for the top card.. the next one is if you have a 2ndary card that is also double slotted.. x1900xtx for example is a double slot design, the top for your 2x DVI ports and the bottom for exhaust...
