The HAF series from Cooler master is pretty successful, and the XM is a perfect example of why. The case is feature rich, lives up to its high airflow name and bears the HAF series’ signature styling. It can get a bit loud, though this is the sacrifice gamers make for great airflow. Overall, the HAF XM is a fantastic case that comes highly recommended.

Wow, don't know whether this is karma, but here goes.

http://mygaming.co.za/news/hardware/...se-review.html (Original isn't it :p)

I'm still the proud owner of the ancient Cooler Master Stacker which I have had since 2005. Just last night I was trying to swap my gfx card with my fiancé so she could join in on BF3, and I had one hell of a time trying to open the case since it just jammed for some reason and nearly ended up having to break the side panel open. :( With this I figured it might be time for a new case some time soon, and then I saw the new Cooler Master HAF XM PC case in all it's glory when I opened the MyGaming Competitions and Giveaways thread.

Since my CM Stacker is so ancient, I find the following features which the CM HAF XM offers to be exceptional.

- Front Panel USB3
- High Airflow Design
- Water Cooling Support
- 90° Rotated, latched right side panel for easy access
- Sliding PSU cable cover for improved cable management. (Great since I don't sport a modular PSU)

The most appealing feature is the High Airflow Design which should help me a lot with the cooling of my i7 2600K since I am still on a stock cooler and constantly have to deal with overheating.

Thnx for the review and all the informative specifications covered in this review! This surely looks the part and style I love.

Coolermaster, Once again you failed to disappoint me. :cool:

SSD Pricing Compared

Getting an SSD is becoming more affordable each day... This article (and similar SSD articles) keep me thinking that I may soon have one too!

I never knew you could OC your monitor O_o.

Also as an enthusiast myself, running Eyefinity should of been in the article :D

This is pretty awesome! one day when I'm rich I'll have to invest in one, seeing as I run all my games on a separate drive, this would be ideal

While i may not upgrade any time soon,this was a good read.

My rig is pretty much high end and just lacks a good GPU and SSD.

The ''Hardware enthusiast must haves'' page was also interesting and i definitely want to try overclocking my screen after buying a new one just for testing/curiosity sake.

Well done Derrick on a very entertaining article. It was informative and made me laugh (although I cringed at the part about the end of the high-end graphics card snapping off, that must've sucked... big time...)

http://mygaming.co.za/news/news/3974...confirmed.html

This pricing makes me a sad panda. :(

http://mygaming.co.za/news/hardware/...-detailed.html

Lots and lots of information; very well written article.

http://mygaming.co.za/news/news/4316...tx-660-ti.html

I have to admit, it's amazing how a new mid level card like the 660ti outperforms my current 570.
My only issue with the 660 is that it seems to have taken quite a step up in price as well.
