Ends today. Newegg has the Cooler Master HAF 912 RC-912-KKN1 ATX Mid Tower Case for $50 - $10 rebate [Exp 2/11] = $40 with free shipping. Features flexible cable management, water cooling support, and enough room for super long graphics cards.

    This case is extremely cheap and poor quality, like most Cooler Master cases. If you expect quality, look elsewhere.

    I wouldn't stack them 3 high like I could with cases from pre~2003 era but they seem about average sturdiness to me, for a 0.8mm sheet metal construction that is. Cheaper cases these days tend to be 0.6mm with the metal itself flexing more, though some of the fancy plastic on them does tend to be added failure points.

    Weight is listed as 17.8 lbs, most of that being the weight of the metal. Here's a $40 Antec weighing only 11 lbs,

    or a $65 Antec weighing only 15.9 lbs,

    I have this case. Not top of the line in features but better built than a no name case. It doesn't look like a teenager's computer/LED light show an no window so you can hide your components. It would look nice sitting next to Dave's desk.

    I loved my last CoolerMaster case. I went with my first NZXT for my new build because I got a great deal on it. It has better airflow than the CoolerMaster, but is built much more cheaply, the mechanism they use to secure drives is cheap and flimsy, and most screws have to be torqued pretty hard to get them in. The CoolerMaster was solid metal, the layout was better, and the drives were held firmly in place.
