Coolermaster 690 III launches!

The CM 690 III is much like it's predecessor, sharing many of the features, such as the front IO. However a lot has changed inside the case, up to 10 3.5" bays with adjustable size so smaller and larger drives can be mounted. Included are two fans, one 200mm in the front of the case and one 120mm fan in the back of the case, acting as an intake and an exhaust respectively. There are multiple places to mount SSD's behind the motherboard tray. This case should cost roughly $126. I would have personally liked a bigger window, but you can't win every battle.

I think that case looks pretty cool :)

 

I'm a fan of coolermaster cases because I am obsessed with ventilation.

I see where you're coming from, but I don't like it. It seems too chubby.

true, luckily I am not looking for a new case!

It looks ok but at $125 it's too much.

Looks pretty cool. The only thing that drove me away from Coolermaster cases was the Coolermaster logo though. It's really ugly and I don't think I'd be able to live with it on my case. :P
