Coolermaster @ PaxWest 2016 - All About the Customization

2016-09-04
I guess we're at the cooler master booth here and I am joined by Kevin he has got a lot of cool things to talk about from coolermaster so how are you Kevin I'm doing Greg we just actually ran through this interview once but the camera just somehow you know bricked itself but we're to talk about the cooler master's cases first up which they're making a big push in the market with customization not only that's some other things yeah so with with our cases we got a lot of we actually got a new case coming out which be the master case pro 3 it's launching September six and we're thinking that is more of like the little brother of the master case five so it is a micro ATX case whereas master you know the match case five is a standard a HX case a lot of cool cool features and what kind of ties these two together would be the freeform modular system and so with the freeform mods modular system that's basically full customization not only inside the case where you know where you can switch around all the drive bays take out a lot of stuff but also external as well so all the panels the front doors I don't know if you guys can see that probably not but the top covers like if I could just take that off get it on beer all get it up here all day so yeah a lot of like a lot of cool stuff a lot of customization like you said it's all backed up also by acessories that you can purchase directly through either amazon newegg or the CM store directly from us so a lot of good customization there yes so making a big push not only in the products but also the customer service and the availability of the products as well now one thing I've noticed being here is well they got the keyboards as well the new master keys pro so you want to get a little bit about that as well with the different sizes and the whole fatter LED thing is you're explaining before you exactly fatter LED know so yeah we have a basically the master keys series and we're trying to really simplify the purchasing some having a bunch of different keyboards with a bunch of different names like we have in the past we're saying okay keyboards the master and basically we end up separating it by small medium large or small would be the 10 key less meat medium would be where you have the tankiez combined with the arrow keys then largely the full standard sized keyboard and so after you know you kind of pick your size which type you want then you can end up just saying all right now do I want our RGB or a kind of a pure white color that's one that you know like the RGB you can't really get through that or no colors because some people for work or something you know and so with that being said what you will just alluded to the fat LEDs we looked around you know the mark we've seen it what a lot of people are doing and as cool and master you know we like to innovate well let's come up with new things I me where the company of that invented heat pipes for Christ's sake you know and so I was like all right what can we do and the keyboards to make a different stand out so we basically ended up reinventing the PCB we ended up taking the we took the board and we drilled holes in individual holes through efforts behind every single key to and really let the LED pop and shine right through so we're able to use a bigger LED and it has a real nice pastel look to it I think I think our keyboards especially the RG B's look really nice a real nice solid perky bat backlighting and another thing that makes a standout is I know a lot of competitors to you have to use a lot of software you know it's a program all of it well with our keywords you can use the software too but what's also great about ours is it's all one hundred percent on the fly so you can so you can program it from the keyboard itself on the save your hardware profiles as well all the hardware profiles all the perky backlighting different modes we also have online we have a lot of people in the community there are uploading a lot of their own lighting modes that you can then go on and download so a lot of cool stuff with our keyboards going on so awesome with those fata lights as well I guess Christmas is going to look a lot better with one of these keyboards around the house yeah definitely definitely you heard it from Kevin himself so keyboards looking good I know a lot of you guys want to know an update as well on the cooler master 212 evo 10 cooler master's most populous if not the most popular cooler of all time for the cpus any update we're going to expect some may be fresh products on the market yeah um as I said we're gonna we've been uh yeah we've been coming out with a whole product line this year we have a lot of products in fact we've been very tired over a cooler master because a starting i think in july basically from july to the end of the year we're launching like 78 new products so every week we're coming out with two or three new products were just pumping them out and so with that being said of course with air coolers we got a whole new line coming out we released early in the year the master air maker 8 and so that's the real beastly big our flagship air cooling

best that you can get so really cool stuff look about it'll be and it just like with our with our master key series they'll all be called master air great we heard that so all those new products coming hopefully one of those products is a mini ITX case though we can uh no word on that no official word I was just seeing all this beautiful tempered glass now one could only imagine if one were to get a mini ITX case with tempered glass that would be really cool sign me up uh yeah no comment on the mini ITX case as I said we got a lot also like so with the mat with the master case going in the completely opposite direction of the busy I texts so we have like the match case pro 3 which is you know the micro we have the match case five standard HX everywhere coming out with the master
