Already got a usb hub on the very top bay, looking for a card reader next.

How should I connect them with the ARGB controller of the HAF 700 EVO ? I mean i want to control them with the cooler master software. Thanks for your answer.

[@Starfals]

I'm currently still using the HAF-X and its a wonderful case. I love it, and it does lower the GPU temps by quite a bit. Great airflow. Only problem is.. its kind of heavy, and the ports are all ancient USB2 and 3.

[@Amfibios]

getting a front 5.25 bay with USB type C is the easiest thing. The HAF X will never get old because of this, whereas the new ones will be obsolete as soon as there's a new port in the market. On the other hand, i find myself using less and less cables so port count is becoming less relevant. Nowadays i do almost all data transfers through network/cloud, my headset is wireless etc.

[@Falangist]

@@Amfibios Agreed. I've installed USB-C, SD card readers, and myriad other bays on my HAF-X that keeps it modern and relevant to my needs. Plus adding an additional 200mm fan on the top of the case, coupled with GPU brace/fan makes it that I'm getting crazy airflow through the thing. I think it was a good idea that Cooler Master added wheels to the thing, because it's seriously a big boy. This HAF 700 would've benefited with the same, or at least make it an optional choice for owners.

[@Fumferknuckle]

Pretty crazy case! Crazy price, capabilities, and looks. One of my only gripes would be the lack of 5.25" bays cause I'm old school like that, but the aesthetics and fan possibilities is the trade off. Love seeing big fans, and lots of places to put normal sized ones. That cable management cover and the fan space next to the motherboard IO are definite cool points in my book. Undecided on the tool-less nature of the case, I always question the longevity of the mechanisms used; unsure if the ease of use outweighs the reliability of traditional methods. Other than the price, props to Cooler Master for taking the risk and making a case I'd totally consider if it weren't for the cost being more than the current value of my used build lol.

[@j377yb33n]

yeah, it'd be nice seeing some 5.25" bays fitting in where the basement in most cases sit. offset the fans to the top so the airflow stays there

[@RaynmanPlays]

Yeah. 5.25" bays are actually pretty fantastic for expanding case functionality. You don't need to buy a new case when your front panel I/O needs change or technology improves. Just add in what you need.

[@pandemicneetbux2110]

>them bays Ah a man of taste and refinement as well I see. Honestly that's the actual reason why I went with my Phanteks, because you'll pry those optical drives from my cold dead hands and plus I also wanted to just mount a card reader in the front. No, I am not wasting a USB port on some messy looking external drive, and I've been charging my vape pens and plugging my HOTAS into that exact extra port I got with the 5.25 card reader anyway. I think if I had a 4th slot I'd probably be considering one of those old manual fan tuners at this point. You remember those? WIth the dials and shit in the front and some had the LCD panel showing you fan power?

[@howardmarkert8150]

For this price I would expect more modularity, such as being being able to do horizontal builds and a full flip left/right build or at least a option to build a mini-ITX build in the power supply compartment. I could see making a desk out of one of these in a horizontal build and a slaved second front panel mirrored on the other side of the desk; this would give the look of a car or trucks tail lights, or the engines of a space craft.

@@Robbaz Only has 9 x 3.5 bays but its a start. What RAID config would be best?

[@matasa7463]

This is a really cool and industrial feel case. I like the direction Cooler Master is going. Oh, and if you get the VRAM on that GPU that hot, it will die very quickly...

[@oldfrend]

i have an old HAF 920 case from like 2010. cost me like $100 at the time and still came with two 200mm fans with enough expandability to install radiators for my 2017 watercooled cpu/gpu build. phenomenal value back when a decent case cost like $50. $650 seems a lot until you consider it might be the last case you'll ever buy.

[@CarlosAlexandreRossini]

Would be great see the 5.1 audio tests... using analog 5.1 spdif, and hdmi from gtx series to rtx and some kind coverters...

[@blindsay]

Neat case, I would definitely consider doing a mega watercooling build in it. Unfortunate about the tarrifs though. $500USD seems about right but $650 is a bit much and also the Corsair 1000D can be had for $500 still

[@haoyuchi2034]

The latest MSRP from Corsair official site shows $529 without tax for 1000D. But don’t forget the fact that the 1000D doesn’t come with any pre-installed fans while this new HAF is shipped with 2x200mm + 3x120mm ARGB, not to mention a Gen 4 Riser cable.

[@sparkypvp2167]

That tarrifs tho. Me no feel good.

[@blindsay]

@@haoyuchi2034 Yeah I mean if you need those items then they are of value to you, I never end up using pre-installed fans though lol. I can get the 1000D for $515 with free prime shipping on amazon

[@dickkallerhan2412]

clearly they decided to wait for a production unit to do the watercooled build ;)

[@thioga1]

The 1000d is just plain better, from finishing to features the price for this one SUCKS.

[@Diodudexo]

I’ve been noticing recently in videos they’ve been using like, business lingo or whatever and then putting what it means in subtitles on the screen I really like that lol keep doing it!

O11 XL Dynamic owner here, been rocking 13 fans for long while now. It's definitely a big help, you can feel the hot air blasting out of the case when I'm going full load.

[@dronedoutrc5970]

I have an 011D XL as well and love the case. I have the top exhaust and side intake rads in push and pull while the bottom intake rad in pull and then the rear exhaust fan. So total 16 120mm fans. Most are EK Vardar DRGB but I do have 6 Bitspower Touchaqua Njords as well. They are solid fans.

[@littletweeter1327]

i remember my big old HAF 932 from back in the day. incredible case

[@russellbrazell7671]

I don't usually find cases to be much to write home about but I want one, it looks sweet.

[@Eli-zb2yj]

I am huge fan of this case

[@noredine]

if you're a huge fan of that case Alex will overvolt you

[@Ex0du52169]

I used to own a HAF-X. That thing was a beast. A very noisy but effective beast.

[@rysterstech]

Idea, a 3 slot card with the pcb in the middle with a passive heatsink on the top side to cool those memory chips on 30 series

[@Flywheel2996]

I guess I know what case I’ll pick up when I build my next system. This thing looks awesome

[@MRNOFILTER718]

I'm not going to lie this case is bad ass!! Definitely going to pick this up!!

[@Wintellshorts]

Well that’s a very popular case. Some would say…. It has a lot of fans

[@scottdotjazzman]

Get out.

[@truxima]

Can’t wait to see @GamersNexus go off on this case, especially with their new testing equipment

[@HydrixTheory]

ikr still waiting for that video lol

[@VolrathMTG]

I bought this case. It's glorious.

[@seandowney2338]

I will admit, despite it's price, I am somewhat considering it. It looks great and has (apparently) splendid airflow. And while most pc parts will burn out eventually, the case is forever. And this one is roomy so unless the size of parts blows up dramatically, I'll be able to shove in whatever parts future year brings.

[@DevPorter]

I love how the front display on this tower looks like a nest thermostat lol

[@GODLIKEZ490]

its such a nice case just bought one myself best thing i ever done

[@IWatchedTheVideo2]

Ayy! That looks amazing. Not gonna bother to say first either

[@rfzw]

It looks really cool. They should make a smaller, more practical version of the case with the same styling.

[@ashcash2926]

I haven’t watched LTT in about 5 years the new intro goes hard 🔥

[@sikya73]

Still have my haf x amd edition in my storage room. I've put a phenom 940 and xfire 5850 in it with dual loop ek watercooling. I cant lift it alone. That's how heavy it is when you watercool it. An this new pc case, good luck trying to lift it. Btw, mine comes with a detachable caster wheel, so i could slide it on the floor.

[@PhoeniXfromNL]

really nice looks on that case alright, would love to see a water cooled build in it

[@Odayian420]

I have a cooler master case. It is an oldie but a goodie and unlike a lot of cases out there plenty of room to work in.

[@riccochet704]

CoolerMaster: Here, try out this engineering sample Linus: Thanks! We're gonna fry the fans!

[@Spideryote]

I HAF to have the new LTT screwdriver Seriously, give us some news

[@Perilloux]

They did on a live stream. It’s going to be a bit.

[@RedRingOfDead]

I second this

[@ieasy12]

Yeah, mentioned in a livestream the people they were dealing with got bought out by a competitor so they're working on getting a new deal elsewhere.

[@RandomTheories]

they talk about it on WAN show basically every week

[@RedRingOfDead]

I do follow WANshow and i know that Linus got some problems with a punk ass supplier. That didn't disclose that they got a huge order from a repetitive brand. That's the problem, when you as a newbie find a good supplier every other company knows about it. But I'm still pro FIFO First In First Out Just don't screw people over like this

[@Darkk6969]

I have the Cooler Master HAF 912 with two 200mm fans. One in the front and another on top. All air cooling. Also love having 5.25 drive bays for my Blu-Ray burners.

[@Walhor]

Defintly getting 1000D vibes with this one. But Im happy with my 011D-XL that has 13 120mm fans in it too

[@fralumz]

they're going to wonder why this video was so heavily disliked. @7:35

[@dbadaddy7386]

I used a Coolermaster Storm Trooper case (with 11 5.25 bays and a 4 bay SSD cage) to build The Emperor. Kitted out with a BLuRay, 6 HHDs, 4 SSDs and a bunch of other parts it came out to close to 70 pounds. So if this case is 55 out of the box, that's gonna be impressive. The Storm Trooper had a handle on top, picking it up reminded me of the days of "portable" computers. It had a handle, so it must be portable. When I took the top off to install the water cooler, it looked a bit like the head of the Xenomorph Queen. The Emperor is big and black and the only lights it has is the power button, whatever is on the motherboard, and one LED on the GPU, 'cause the Emperor don't need bling to show who's boss. If I hadn't just built a new machine I would get this case.

[@sanchitswlkr]

It's legit that next gen of cases are here. More space, more RGB, more ridiculous and for a cost.

[@TheWarKeeper]

Coolermaster CEO: I want a new case and it HAF to be wide! Engineering team: How wide do you want it to be? Coolermaster CEO: Yes.

[@devintolliver92]

Yes very nice a cooler master episode after work ❤️

[@YOEL_44]

I hope they add this case to PC Building Simulator ASAP, I cannot afford that much on a box for my computer.

I have an earlier version of the HAF case, what a legendary case. My new Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL has 10 case fans to cool my 12900K and 3080, still very quiet.

[@SEEUENTEE]

I like to see companies going for something out there more or less yoloing ideas and breaking away from the norm if it’s good or bad so what just nice to see something different. this is definitely a power move and I love it 😂
