Very good
Item meets the requirements. Plenty of room to fit the equipment. The ventilation of the case is very well thought out. Can accommodate watercooling. Think to reserve a big place to him all the same.

Its generous interior space allows for the installation of a Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX or ATX motherboard coupled with a graphics card of up to 410mm in length.

The acrylic side window will allow you to keep an eye on all your components and will, for example, showcase your RGB fans.
With its DarkMirror front panel, the Cooler MasterBox MB520 has a good air intake to cool the system. In addition, this case has 6 slots for 120mm (or 5 x 140mm) fans, one of which is pre-installed at the back to allow you to choose your most optimized cooling solution for your configuration. Watercooling can also be installed on the front (120/140/240/280/360 mm), on the top (120/240 mm) or on the back with a 120 mm.

I bought this case for my son as I already have one of the brand for myself.
I bought this box for my son as I already have one of this brand for myself. The box itself is very good and would have deserved 5 stars, but I withdraw 2 stars for 2 defects:
-The power supply rests on 4 studs with dampers, but on the box I received there are only 3 dampers, so on one point of support, the power supply rests on nothing.
The power supply rests on 4 pads with shock absorbers, but on the case I received there are only 3 shock absorbers, so on one point the power supply does not rest on anything. -In the case there are 8 flexible pads for mounting ssd disks, but of the 8, one was unusable.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's not a good idea to turn the case upside down, but it's annoying when you start to mount the computer and realize that you're going to have to fiddle with it.
Very good case, easy to mount your PC with its smart design
Only 1 fan included
A lot of ventilation in this case, which is unfortunately too light.
The components of the PC are too heavy for the case, and this creates a mismatch between the side of the case that holds the motherboard, and the rest, which creates vibrations that make a LOT of noise.
I have to put the pc down to avoid this noise.
I clearly don't recommend it.
I love the transparent but dark front panel, which looks great with my LED fan! Perfect for a visible installation, but not too much! be careful not to put a CD/DVD player!
