Cooler Master MasterCase Pro 5 Chassis Review

Complete System
The accessory kit certainly comes in handy, with all the screws and fittings you will need to saturate the available mounts within the chassis. It’s also neatly laid out in a small box, so it should be easy to store between uses.
Working on the build was an absolute blast and getting tight and tidy cable management proved no issue here.
One thing that was interesting, there’s no bars between each of the expansion slots. That’s not an issue at all, it just looks a bit different to most other chassis’.
With everything in place, the Master Case Pro 5 is certainly a stunning looking chassis. The build went very smoothly and I ran into no issues while working with it.
Cable management is stellar, with no excess cables on show, at least not in any places they shouldn’t be and that’s great for those who want to show off their build through that massive side panel window.
The rear expansion slots look odd without the cross bars, but that just means there’s less in the way of my GPU fans exhaust.
The rear PSU bracket, giving our Seasonic PSU a nice and snug fit.
A cavernous amount of space above the motherboard, so you’ll have no issues fitting a thick radiator in the top!
The GPUs are making good use of those rubber grommets in the PSU shroud and they prevent the dreaded “cables trailing across the top of the GPU” scenario.
You can barely see it, but there is a 2.5″ drive tucked in there!
One of the few changes I had to make is the hard drive bays, I moved them up one notch to clear some space for our rather sizable Sapphire R9 270X graphics cards.
I also removed the bottom hard drive bays. I didn’t need to, but it’s nice to tinker around with what can be done.
The side panel window back in place and the Master Case Pro 5 is complete! A stunning looking build, with neat and tidy cable management, clean exterior looks and more!
A great chassis for those who love to show off their handy-work.
