Cooler Master TD300 Review w/ Timelapse build

[@petarpartaloski8889]

2:30 - You can actually install 3 fans in the front on the outside!!! I just did this with mine, it's a bit tight but it works!

[@Bobibobski]

Thanks. I've tried it. But I notice that the airflow for GPU isn't so good right? I have ASUS TUF RX6800 and it reach 80 C in full load.

[@petarpartaloski8889]

@@Bobibobski It's alright - AMD GPUs are a bit toasty, just make sure to adjust the fan curve of the GPU and CPU :)!

[@Bobibobski]

@@petarpartaloski8889 I have set the fan curve and yet the temperature is higher than my previous case for GPU. 😄. And how about the TD500. Is the airflow better? I consider buying it actually

[@Weezedog]

Big selling point is mesh front, removable top panel, and that it can fit a 280mm radiator in the top. You would be surprised how many matx cases only support a 240mm in the top. Very few support 280mm.

[@KitGuruJames]

280mm top AIO is a good feature to have. Even some mid tower ATX case struggle to fit in top 280mm AIO support.

[@markdavenportjr5129]

I just recently got this case AND WOW what a difference in cooling performance coming from a stock Ibuypower pre built system. I even upgraded the stock cpu cooler to a 212 evo black edition the performance is just pure amazing now. :)

[@5181year]

I was going to build my next pc into this case going from a ATX size to a ITX case but since the Evolv Shift XT just came out that case will be my next pc build

[@QuentinStephens]

Goodwork That dismountable top would have ben areal boon when I had a fan header fail.

[@KitGuruTech]

​James will be here 12th 12.00 UK time to chat with you all about system building, and this case of course too!

[@coolness2373]

Specs?

[@tthbeige3332]

Good of you to point out that some matx motherboards push down the gpu a slot, I have seen some people blaming sub-par gpu thermals on the case in those situations. I am not a huge fan of CM products overall but this case looks quite good, only beaten IMO by the FD meshify mini C.

[@shaun3133]

Anyone thinking of building in this case and plans on putting in fat cards, make sure your micro ATX boards pcie slot is parallel with the middle left side motherboard screw, if it’s below it like the board he’s using in the video it will reduce the slot size cards you can use by an entire slot. MSI and ASrock both make B550m boards that will be a good choice for this board.

[@Edoneer]

Thank you kind sir

[@toomuchradiation99]

Man I got a XFX Swft RX 6800. Huge card but the specs said it would fit that case. It barely fits tho, but at least it does. Loved the video.

[@warking4257]

smashing vid thankyou

[@KitGuruJames]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@nlvassassin]

Music reminds me of tron or a sega genesis game. Mos def 80's and 90's video games 8-bit music. Good build

[@rodneyhobbs6507]

Back in the day I would have gone with darkflash dlm21 mesh but I don't think they are very available now.

[@Belznis]

Nicely done with the color combination. Not a bad case, but the lack of usb- c is a bit disappointing. Even though some motherboards have the usb C on the backside, it is not practical. I think that the price is a bit high, but when you see the build and when you know it is going to serve you for a while, maybe not that bad.

[@ibizenco]

I have the TD300 for three days now (with my Ryzen 3 3200G and its "onboard" video). Just like with the TD500 a pleasure to work with. I did have a small issue to get the front RGB fans to "blink" properly (they were flashing with only green colour, which was quite annoying) with my ASRock B450M-Pro4 motherboard (ASRock's "Polychrome" program did some update...). And I installed a 120 mm BeQuiet fan at the back. A computer case I can recommend. Good work, CoolerMaster.

[@KLIMIXRD]

360mm front?

[@mayah4430]

Love the video! Im using this video as a template for my upcoming build when GPU prices go down but I do have a question though, I have never tried aio coolers before, would it be fine to use the same aio you used for a 12400f? I worry alot of about temperatures because I live in a tropical country and I'd appreciate yours or anyones help answering this question. Cheers from the Philippines!

[@KitGuruJames]

The cooler I used in this video should be fine for a 12400F but according to the Cooler Master website the LGA1700 socket needs an additional accessory pack from Cooler Master fir the ML240 Illusion. The PL240 Flux might be a better choice as it includes LGA1700 socket support out of the box.

[@user-sj4tk1nq5l]

20:37 so which mobo should i buy?

[@henrycrevoisier2200]

does the rgb hedder come pre installed or do you have to put it in yourself?

[@anonymoususer7985]

These cases are not bad but the only way I would be happy to use this case is to use a aio gpu to the front because the choke on the gpu would scare me to much and aio cpu up top like you did (if length is longer enough you could swap them) The only issue is I don’t think you could vertical mount the gpu to show it off

[@KitGuruJames]

I don't think you could get a vertical mount in this case, not easily anyway.

[@anonymoususer7985]

@@KitGuruJames yep maybe it’s a cooler master design team request but doubt it would be worth the development to them, 3D printer a 4 slot mount maybe Edited Stand corrected EZDIY-FAB Vertical Graphics Mount apparently fits matx cases, probably give air cooled gpu’s more breathing room too just need to check cpu aio clearance I believe

[@VasuPatel2511]

Can i apply wifi card under graphics card (3060) in this cabinet?

[@d_neksd]

can you use 360 radiator front panel?

[@kalitvenec]

cool

[@Deviantsoundz]

If they didnt ruin the white case with a tinted glass i would of bought it.

[@boicungcamap4313]

how to install 2.5 SSD sir?

[@fedeugu5410]

My fans are on breathe mode, idk why, anyone knows how can they be on static mode without breathing. Im using the argb case controller

[@Bobibobski]

if you want th fan to be controlable. try removing the ARGB cable and 4 pin fan from the fan hub. Use the fan splitter instead and directly connect to motherboard.

[@6wings688]

Those in Vedic ads are obtrusive at best

[@g4gaming737]

For me mAtx doesn't matter. But, need one suggestion between this and Lancool 205 mesh. Can anyone tell me?

[@aerosw1ft]

The space underneath the GPU on this case seems a little to tight especially on higher end ones. I'd take the 205 mesh if were to upgrade to a beefy GPU in the future

[@motherflerkentannhauser8152]

Why is this now costing more than Lian Li O11 D mini😂

[@danielstormy3660]

White version is much prettier.

[@Dmwntkp99]

Front Fascia adds unneeded length bad design.

[@basshead.]

[@ares23dc]

I am a bit dissapointed with CM for selling such low quality cases, as this one. There are brands, which people call 'no name' with better cases for cheaper. Great video as always, cheers.

[@danielstormy3660]

I have white TD500 version and there nothing low quality in it.

[@ares23dc]

@@danielstormy3660 Maybe you never had quality cases. The price of this case does not reflect the quality. Should be much cheaper.

[@MarkoVuckovic32]

And what case would you recommend that is similar in size and also has mesh panel in the front?

[@ares23dc]

@@MarkoVuckovic32 Not sure if you are trolling or not, but for £87 there are more than 50 cases with mesh available.

[@MarkoVuckovic32]

@@ares23dc No, I am not trolling, I just started looking for a decent mATX mesh case and this is the first one I managed to find, I am open to suggestions if there is anything better in the similar price range.

[@cybercript2193]

Would this case support Zotac rtx 4090, pls?
