Cooler Master ATCS 840 Case

Introduction

Cooler Master has always been renowned for their classically styled cases and this reputation was born with the first of the ATC (Active Thermal Convection) cases – the ATCS-201. Since then, some of Cooler Master’s styling has wavered somewhat with a seemingly more beefed-up design found in the HAF-932.
Today we have the latest ATCS case released at a similar time to the HAF-932 which returns to the more classical breed of Cooler Master cases. The manufacturer will hope this particular enclosure can match the iconic level of some of their previous designs such as the Cosmos. However, can the ATCS-840 really match up to its predecessors? Let’s take a look…

Cooler Master’s Take on the ATCS-840

“ATCS 840 constitutes a classic all-aluminium design that builds on the legacy of the original ATCS design. The aluminium construction not only allows for a lighter weight but complements the thermal design seamlessly with three 230mm fans, dedicated air duct for graphics card cooling and HDD cooling module for superb cooling.
Extra attention to make sure this elegantly design chassis is easy to install and maintain, which includes: slide-out motherboard tray along with easy CPU cooler-remove slot, tool-free HDD casing, patented finger pressing 5.25″ drive to dust filter.
Lastly, it gives users the freedom to choose any components they desire, as it supports the latest standards such as E-ATX and dual PSUs.”
