I'd like to comment on the last thing, the fact that it is flat packed means the material thickness was increased and the handling costs are higher than traditional cases since it takes longer time to "assemble" it on the production line. So funnily enough a flat packed case that is this rigid and well built costs more than a traditional case even though the general conception is that this would be cheaper.
I think this is a fantastic idea. It opens up new options for modular designs and case modding. Custom paint jobs, 3D printed parts, etc., are much easier to accomplish when all panels can be individually manipulated. Price-wise, if it came assembled on a store shelf I'd expect a $120 price-tag, so $90 seems fair to me for what they're saving in manufacturing and shipping.
Personally i think it’s a good idea shipping wise does it help the environment? Decent size case at a decent price that due to it flat pack design can or could be modded further with 3d printing…
I think you truly have to be the target audience for this pc! Maybe it’s because im a relatively short and semi weak woman that this case really calls to me! Im always on the go and a laptop simply cant do the things i want it to do without costing me a fortune, but this case looks wise (cute ass colors, im literally a baker ofc im gonna want a macaron color themed case), size/weight wise, and customizability wise is all i need. I especially love how I can build the case inverted since on my desks i can never see into my case due to the glass always being on the other side. Also as a studying marine biology major I appreciate them cutting down on packaging waste. Back to my point earlier, i have a massive corsair 4000X case and I truly cant stand it, its too big I can’t even really move it to clean it and it has so much empty space inside to the point where it irks me. Over half of my valuable lefty arm space is taken up by my pc case alone on my desk so this case not only being girly cute colors attracts me but the fact that it even has a convenient carry handle so i can bring it around with me and clean it easier makes all the difference. The price really isn’t that bad given you can still do all full components and you get a usb type C. 99 dollars is perfect for the customization and not having to get rid of components from my normal PC to use it. You can literally mount hard-drives onto the radiator bracket! Like this is the perfect case for me! It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but i think i will be purchasing this, this December! I have a Noctua nh D-15 so realistically i do not think my temps will change much even in such a smaller case. But even if I’d have to switched to an AIO that wouldn’t matter either. Thanks for the video review it always helps to get these second opinions! ❤
I feel the only down side is the side panel that either blocks the air flow or provides a mesh panel without glass view. Felt a alternative option could have been effective there
Been thinking about building my newest creator PC in this and was so happy to see you reviewed this. Planning on putting a i9-13900k + 4080 inside! A big thing for me is those handles, I work a hybrid schedule and Laptops are not keeping up long term for me so have been looking for something portable. Love that you can fit a full size motherboard!
The concept is good, and its a nice looking case but the customer shouldn't have to pay full price and still build the case themselves, while Coolermaster saves money on labour from not building it, and shipping because its flat pack. It would have to be half the price when there are so many budget cases on the market at the £50 range.
Paying for design and thought that went into this(special sourcing they have to do…the $50 generic case you mentioned all came from one factory). Come on, man, appreciate the effort.
@@d-katalyst3732 they have a very similar looking pre built case from cooler master (Q300L), for £50 this version is just a different colour and not built for you, for twice the price.
FYI for anyone wanting to build in this case: -a top mounted aio may not fit with some motherboards. i have a asus z690i, and it barely fits. i had to angle my cpu power cable to the side rather than looping up if that makes sense. -you can mount the power supply on the bottom assuming you have an itx motherboard and you gpu does not go past the 3rd position. This allows you to have a front mounted aio up to 280mm.
In my opinion, the price is reasonable, specifically a few MATX cube shapes cases that can fit +350 mm GPU. I wonder if there will be an ITX for this that can fit 3 to 4 slots 350 mm GPU without riser at a price 100 USD or less, such as Cougar QBX that can fit 2 slots 350 mm GPU.
I'm getting one to put "Athlon II Vista PC" with HD6850 video card :-) Motherboard is a full ATX and i was looking for something small (as this is my "toy PC"). Yes, i'd prefer to have lower price for (lower shipping) but i think it's ok.
Awesome case i think if the transport thing was a real thing they would've come up with a better solution for transporting all of the parts of the pc and not just the case, with that said modularity in pc cases are a necessary subject today cause that's the whole point of building your own pc it is a step in the right direction and i do want to see this case with an a6000 if you could get one with a sponsor or something or 4090 water cooled like msi, and maybe a more efficient cpu and see what we can do in a smaller box, and stuff it with t30's, and 32-64gb ram and maybe an aero motherboard for the flare and aesthetic bright colors of the case
Interesting, but the styling triggered my "PTSD" from having tried a "Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L TUF Gaming Alliance Edition" nearly 3 years ago. I am a fan of Cooler Master for many things, but those Q300L's are terrible. I may try one of these as I like the modularity, and it has some features that remind me of the NR200P, which is great to build in. I call the NR200P my "laptop build," because I can easily hold it in my lap while I mess around with things.
Ventilation looks pretty bad, very similar situation to the q300l v2 and v1 that got a bad reviews poor airflow. Something low power could be used there but wouldn't recommend high-power components if they are going to be used heavily.
since there is only 5 commnets we should get a heart ...love your content and love you and dont know why i did not subscribe ..i have been watching for months
With a case like this, you can be creative and make it yours. It is not for me, unfortunately, most likely because I feel claustrophobic looking at you squeezing the GPU in there. When you make a video about a creator machine, I think a healthy budget is 2500, but I want to make a small challenge for you. Talk about the business side of creators, we can all go on pcpartsbuilder and put something together. Part of being a creator is being creative, which is somewhat understood by most of us. What about the write-off of the PCs you use, the backups and retention of the business. What happens if you just don't feel well for a few days and cannot create, what is the impact and so on. You don't need to use your own business, be creative. I am sure glamour cost money, do you have an agent for instance? Cost of power, you can't tell me power to all these machines and lights and camera's can not be cheap. As a creator, who do you look most up to, and who actually was your mentor?
Really bad airflow and sound. Cooler master really screwed up and yet they keep comming out with new Q model, to get back some of the machining cost, but why won't they at least change the patern where the case fan are! Too bad it would be a best seller for people who want small case but want to build a bare bone pc.
There is no difference between a 'creator' PC and and 'gaming' PC. It's all marketing nonsense. Good video though. This case should cost between $65 and $70 max. You didn't really mention the build quality so maybe less.

it should since it is a very niche product not many people will buy it, thats like free market 101
usb c in 50$ case ?

To be honest: I love the idea. And having something to build together is a plus for a case.
FYI for anyone wanting to build in this case:
-a top mounted aio may not fit with some motherboards. i have a asus z690i, and it barely fits. i had to angle my cpu power cable to the side rather than looping up if that makes sense.

THANK YOU FOR SWAPPING THE SIDE PANELS! I have been wondering about this but no other video showed it.
In my opinion, the price is reasonable, specifically a few MATX cube shapes cases that can fit +350 mm GPU. I wonder if there will be an ITX for this that can fit 3 to 4 slots 350 mm GPU without riser at a price 100 USD or less, such as Cougar QBX that can fit 2 slots 350 mm GPU.
Wish the front could mount a 200mm fan
I think a 14700k would be perfect in that size. This reminds me of o11 air mini. It can fit even the largest 4090.
Mannnn I'm needing a high quality video like yours for creators monitors (specially designer)
the ship is not with size but kg , moreover compact size : will not be destroy by transport
I'm getting one to put "Athlon II Vista PC" with HD6850 video card :-) Motherboard is a full ATX and i was looking for something small (as this is my "toy PC"). Yes, i'd prefer to have lower price for (lower shipping) but i think it's ok.
I love the open air pc frames. They take forever to get but If you change things often they are awesome. Plus they look cool.
i just need to know about temperature on this case
some reviewer said it's just another Oven like Q300L
Awesome case i think if the transport thing was a real thing they would've come up with a better solution for transporting all of the parts of the pc and not just the case, with that said modularity in pc cases are a necessary subject today cause that's the whole point of building your own pc it is a step in the right direction and i do want to see this case with an a6000 if you could get one with a sponsor or something or 4090 water cooled like msi, and maybe a more efficient cpu and see what we can do in a smaller box, and stuff it with t30's, and 32-64gb ram and maybe an aero motherboard for the flare and aesthetic bright colors of the case
Bottom intake possibility blocket by GPU and front intake possibility blocket by PSU. Will AIO ventilation be sufficient for build?
I bought a black one. I look forward to discovering this case. I chose it over a lian li but this will be a very basic build. It should be fun.
Hey bro can I know the difference between Cooler Master Qube 500 Flatpack and Regular Qube 500 Version !
This is awesome! I wanna see more of this on the market!
$50 and I would buy this case in a heart beat lol
3 SSD brackets and 4 3.5 HDD brackets! (one behind the MB, one on the radiator bracket, one at the bottom, one at the top)
But when can I buy one?
Interesting, but the styling triggered my "PTSD" from having tried a "Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L TUF Gaming Alliance Edition" nearly 3 years ago. I am a fan of Cooler Master for many things, but those Q300L's are terrible.

Can you do the FormD T1 next?
Can you use a power supply with C20 connector?
On sale at Newegg for $99. Can’t be that!
based on the form factor and the prices of cases like this, it is less expensive. quite a bit actually,
Ventilation looks pretty bad, very similar situation to the q300l v2 and v1 that got a bad reviews poor airflow. Something low power could be used there but wouldn't recommend high-power components if they are going to be used heavily.
All of the leading YT reviewers - like you - are drooling over that case!!! They should just ship it in pieces and call it the "Ikea Case" 🤣🤣🤣
Make a CPU tier list
And explain
Is the CPU good for 1080p videos
Or 1440p videos
Hello ! does it fit the noctua d15?
cooler master wanted us to experience ultimate pc building experience lol
since there is only 5 commnets we should get a heart ...love your content and love you and dont know why i did not subscribe ..i have been watching for months
Like a Lego set! Fantastic!
That glass panel is for me a no buy

The video had a picture of a different case!
I like the case. The price and shipping, nope, not at all, especially since I have to put it together.
It's too small. Going to be loud. Forget about OC.
for the quality of the case, This is really cheap for at least in India
Really bad airflow and sound.

Did you say Test Bench !!!!
Yes
Why does no one build these as the name suggests.... AS A CUBE
Catblender mode. LOL!
🎉🎉🎉
Last
damn im early.

Oh, there's a huge difference! :)
