"It's been a while since we last reviewed a Cooler Master case (actually two). Since then, they have taken their cases to a new, simple direction. They would now have towers and desktops clearly marketed for different segments. They planned to release only a few models at a time; at most 2 for each segment (this simplification is what caused some employees to leave and start their own company, which has had great results so far).
Since we reviewed those wonderfully simple, tasteful designs, we've been reviewing cases aimed at "gamers" which ranged from the outlandish, to the evil, to the completely distasteful.
Every time we reviewed such a case, we loved the functionality, but left the looks up to each individual to decide upon. Some people love those Alienware-inspired plastic bezels, but others find them to be complete eyesores. More often than not, the feedback has been "why do you keep reviewing these expensive, ugly premods?". Well we heard you guys loud and clear! I sought out to find a case that offers tasteful design that can stand on its own, or be a perfect basis for a case mod."
