The Best Case of Computex 2017 $140: MasterCase H500P

2017-06-03
welcome back to how one box for more Computex coverage and this time I managed to get within shooting distance of the new cooler master H 500 P and cosmos C 700 P all week the coolermaster boots has been packed and even on Friday I still had a hard time getting some good shots thanks to MSA for bringing me to Computex 2017 this year if you're in the market for a new gaming desktop PC then check out msi high-end core i7 systems also right now they are offering a free you play game key for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon wildlands with select purchases it's also possible to score wildlands game code with select msi motherboards check out their new x99 z - 7 th - 70 range i'll provide a link in the video description so finally I had my chance to check out the new Coolermaster products before making my way to the epic cases I paid a visit to the peripheral section of the booth and here I found quite a few new upcoming products on display was a nice new looking mouse and keyboard combo the master set ms 120 the keyboard features the mem chemical tactile switches and the mouse has pro grade switches with on-the-fly dpi switching of course both are RGB lit and as you can see they're very eye-catching also on display was a new gaming headset the master pulse MH 320 the headset features a steel frame construction and Coolermaster says it's built to last it also has ultra soft leather ear cups I have to say they felt great and they should remain comfortable for long gaming sessions Coolermaster also says the boom mic is bi-directional so background noise shouldn't be an issue but obviously I wasn't able to test that on the showroom floor as there was probably just a bit too much background noise as I understand it this is meant to be a reasonably affordable headset and is backed by a two-year warranty also in coming our two new gaming mice spec wise they are both the same using a picsArt pmw 3360 infrared sensor with adjustable dpi switching up to 12,000 dpi it also includes 0 negative acceleration or prediction for true one-to-one input the mm 530 is designed for those who like a palm grip while the mm 5 20 is for claw grip users the peripheral that I was most interested in was the master keys mk7 50 and this keyboard uses Cherry MX which is it boasts a minimalist type design while still looking quite flashy thanks to an RGB light bar okay now it's time for the big boys here we have the cosmos see 700 P and what a beast this thing is the cosmos series has always included big beefy cases and the C 700 P is no exception measuring six hundred and forty millimeters tall six hundred and forty millimeters deep and 305 millimeters wide design wise this in my opinion is the best-looking cosmos case yet the aluminium handles and feet look amazing as does the curved tempered glass that's right this case has curved glass hiding behind the aluminium trimmings is some subtle RGB lighting and again this looks great the i/o panel also features some nice RGB highlights speaking of which you will find a USB 3.1 gen2 type-c port for USB 3.0 ports and a fan controller internally the case can accommodate two five and a quarter inch devices eight three and a half inch drives and two two and a half inch drives something I found a bit disappointing though is the fact that the case only comes with a single 140 millimeter fan pre-installed so that's a big surprise for such a premium case moving on to what is absolutely my favorite case of the entire show the new master case H 500 P the latest installment 1/2 or high airflow series this is without question one of the most unique looking computer cases I've seen in a very long time not only does it look very unique but it also looks very good the design manages to be aggressive but also simplistic and elegant at the same time it has a nice big tempered glass side panel and RGB LED lighting helps give it some Flair as well crammed into the front of the case are two huge 200 millimeter fans which are again RGB lit these fans force a huge amount of air through the case and I really like how they're visible through the front window Coolermaster has done a good job of showing off these fans without inhibiting their ability to work efficiently a clean bill can easily be achieved with the help of a two-part PSU cover and several additional covers at the front and back side of the motherboard tray what's really exciting about this new case is the price the H 500 P should be available in September of this year and it should retail for an unbelievable 140 dollars u.s. Coolermaster had a heap of other gear on display the heat column concept cooler was interesting this reminds me of something we would have seen back in the early days of custom air coolers still it did look good so I'm keen to see how it performs another interesting concept cooler on display was the master air maker 3d Alvie this was a massive vehicle of packing two banks of aluminium fins and three 120 millimeter fans Coolermaster also had a section of the booth which took you for a nice walk down memory lane back in 1999 they released the CH v 5k 11 so product names were no better back then the world's first CPU cooler today advantage of heat pipe technology then we have the ATC 100 which was the world's first all aluminium case released back in 2000 and what a blast from the past was seeing this thing again cool last was busy back in 2004 bringing us the first all-in-one liquid cooler as well as the CM stacker featuring removable parts then in 2005 the world's first laptop cooler the cool pad 2005 also marked the arrival of the real power 550 watt power supply which included a display for showing real-time readout for power consumption the u 2007 was a big one for Coolermaster as this was when they release to the extremely well-known 212 then in 2011 they started making premium gaming keyboards with the release of the trigger 2013 the v8 GTS is still fresh in my mind and Coolermaster says this is when CPU coolers went from ugly to a centerpiece of the bills finally on hand at the booth coolermaster had some models working very hard to create some amazing looking rigs so I'll wrap up the coverage here and take it out with some shots of all the awesome systems on display I'm your host Steve Stig and soon guys you you
