After having built in my Corsair Carbide Spec-01, which looks freaking bad ass, I've noticed some flaws. The two main ones being that there's little room behind the motherboard tray for cable management, and it doesn't have official support for a 240mm AIO. -.-

When I saw the LTT video on the Cooler Master Mastercase, I fell in love.

Anybody got any idea when it might be coming out? I couldn't find anything.

It will be $170+, so If you have a spec 01 now, it's probably out of your price range

$170+

WHAT!? Sweet baby Jesus, that's a lot of dough.

I may be looking to build a custom loop sometime in the future, so a case upgrade will be necessary. I just don't really like the look of most cases, but the Mastercase looks bad ass.

Big nice cases come with a premium, that not unheard of though. A lot of cases cost the much, like mine. If you want some expensive stuff look at Caselabs, $600+

I suppose $170 isn't TOO unreasonable. However, even after conversion, it's still a whole lot more than my Spec-01, which cost a mere £43.

What's your specs? It's not worth it to get an expensive case, with a low end build

room behind the motherboard tray for cable management (...) official support for a 240mm AIO

 

Pretty much any decent full tower will offer that. They don't come very cheap, but you can still get very good ones for quite a bit less than $170.-

Full towers are massive though.  Not everyone is into that.  I'm actually really looking forward to the mastercase 5's release so I can replace my HAF X with it.  HAF X was cool 5 years ago, but now it's just old, ugly, and unnecessarily huge.

Thrive on change. Embrace volatility.
