Every detail has been updated!

There's been a lot of speculation in forums that this revision of the very popular CM 690 is just a minor update with some black paint inside. Nothing could be further from the truth. I upgraded my wife's PC a year ago, and used the CM 690. It was perfectly nice, for a mid-tower. My own PC is in the Cooler Master ATCS 840 -- the best case I've ever seen -- but my wife's PC is in a location where a huge full tower case just won't go. The single feature that caught my eye in the initial announcements of this new version was full dust filters. We have a cat, and cat hair is the most evil thing that can happen to a PC. A co-worker was about to try his first PC build, so I offered him the CM 690 case and used that as an excuse to get the new model. With both cases side-by-side and opened up, I was amazed at the differences. Every piece, and every detail, has been rethought and upgraded. Some of the improvements are too little for the ads to even mention, but show Cooler Master's attention to detail. As one tiny example, two of the motherboard standoffs have a little protrusion. You use them for the back corners of the motherboard. When you fit the motherboard in place, the protrusions go up into the mounting holes and hold the motherboard exactly in position with all the mounting holes exactly lined up over their standoffs. You don't have to hold the motherboard in position with one hand while getting the initial screws in. A minor little enhancement, but really neat and something I've never seen before and never heard of. The tool-less harddrive carriers have been changed from the previous version, and are now just like the ones in the ATCS 840. There's a special carrier for 2.5" drives (e.g. SSDs) in one of them. Another minor tweak is a switch to turn the blue leds on the front fan on or off. Have it whichever way you prefer. With the previous version, a little surgery would have been necessary to turn it off. The built-in dock on the top is another very nice little feature. The CM 690 was a nice mid-tower case that's proven very popular. The CM 690 II Advanced is far better. I recommend it highly.

Excellent case, few minor tweaks would make it perfect

Ok, this case is the closest thing to perfect in a mid tower (well big mid) I've used. I've got this case and only using Cooler Master fans within it.
The airflow through this case using the default side panel is amazing.
One minor complaint is that the edges for the mesh used were not always tamped down and so are sharp and catchy at some points, and even block better design use of the case (as on of my suggestions will elaborate on).

One review mentioned that the XDock is not hot-swap. Technically incorrect. Since the XDock is really a direct connection to your motherboards SATA ports it depends on the settings you have configured in the BIOS of your motherboard for the chipset you connect it to. Use AHCI mode and hotswap works just fine on the ports. This is something that they should have covered in the manual for the case but did not.

I wish that it had been 1 inch taller to accommodate having the motherboard high enough to use 3 Dual Slot sized video cards in a triple SLI configuration. Unfortunately the last slot due to PSU and motherboard placement is really restricted to only a single slot card (oh well guess I'll only go dual SLI and use a third single slot card for PhysX).

Another area that could have used improvement was the 3.5" drive trays. The pins fit fine in WD drives, are a bit tight but workable in hitachi drives, but in Seagate drives you'll be twisting the rubber if you go straight for putting the drives into the trays. Instead remove one of the pins and push it all the way in the 4 holes that would align with the mount on each Seagate drive you plan to put in this case to wear down a bit of the screw thread so they'll fit better.
While on the subject of the 3.5 trays, it would have been nice if a backboard had been included for making it so the drives could just slde right into the system and be connected. Instead both sides of the case must be opened so the wiring for power and SATA can be accessed (unless you happen to leave long air blocking tangled messes).
The bottom 4 of the 3.5" trays come out to allow mounting of an additional bottom intake fan or water cooling radiator. It would have been nice if the 4 bay and 2 bay 3.5" segments were interchangeable allowing one to remove only 2 bays and have the 4 bay hang from the 5.25" if one chose to do so.

On to the 5.25" bays, it would be nice if the bottom one had been given a gap between the face and the main bay hanger such that instead of a single front 140mm a dual front 140mm fan configuration could have been used.

The top exhaust fan area could use some slight improvement. If the top of the case mesh were bent more cleanly for the securing parts through the plastic then 2 140mm fans can actually be mounted underneath the top plastic instead of within the main case proper. Unfortunately the current design does not have screw mount holes to support this configuration even though the exhausted air comes out much better (I've actually just rested the fans on top of the case proper, cleanly bent the mesh mount point and it clips on just fine with 2 140mm fans there).

Fan mount screws, should have come with enough in black to mount every possible fan within the system. If not the fans that come premounted should use the standard silver that ships with nearly every fan including the Cooler Master fans. Instead the case comes with 4 pushpin fan mounts that match nothing used anywhere else on the case. Perhaps they should consider switching to using them on the pre-installed fans and providing enough of them to mount all the possible fans.

The odd 80x80x15mm instead of standard 80x80x25mm fans should either be included or adjustments made to support a more standard size.

As others have mentioned a bit more room behind the motherboard would be welcome. I was able to fit all my wiring on that side but it was kind of tight.

Dust filtering mesh stuff should have been included for all fan points. Admittedly a good step up from the previous version of this came which had no filtering the current version still leaves some nothing for the side panel intakes.

Overall due to the excellent airflow this case is great. Fits nicely under a desk and yet allows for great cooling. The XDock is immensely useful as long as the BIOS/Controller card is configured correctly to support hot swapping and Windows "Safely remove hardware".

Definitely one of the better cases I've used in my years of PC building.

Cooler Master CM 690 Modification for non-stock coolers on Intel Boards

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2011

Verified Purchase

This is a terrific case, especially if you intend on building a "Power" system. The construction is excellent and solid. I'm not fussy about bling, and the debonair sophistated look of this case struck me as more Sinatra than Sonita.

My previous case, a dinosaur now, was devoid of case fans and resulted in me leaving the side panel off permanently to allow for the heat generated by the CPU and GPUs. The fans that come with theis case are three charmers, one of them is a real shiner. I am putting an i7 CPU (O/C to 4.3mhz) and a chunky NVidia GPU on a Z68 Motherboard into the new case. This will probably top-out at around 1 KW (should keep me warm during the winter).

The final cherry on the cake as it were, is a Noctura 240 CPU Cooler. This is a real deep freezer in its class but comes with the penalty of being large enough to house a couple of gerbils. The case just loves it, giving it a far from a snug fit (although the gerbils suffer from real bed-head when to fans are running full pelt). Oh, by the way, the installed motherboard is an extended ATX form factor, bigger than the average, and the case, once again, was more than accomodating.

My reason for holding back from the five star award for the case is this: the non-stock cooler that I am installing, comes with a backplate which is common with most good (non-water cooled) high efficiency coolers. This back plate sits behind the mobo and bolts through it, but it is too thick to fit between the mobo and the internal case wall. There is a manufacturers hole in the wall which is intended to provide access for mounting such a backplate, but it is partially in the wrong position for my intended build. This has resulted in me needing to take tin-snips too extend the hole. Not a problem for me, but if anyone out there intends to build a similar system, then they might want to check out the Amazon hardware shop and order a pair with this case if they don't already own some.

Anyway, if you fancy a slightly sinister looking, cool(both temperature and ergonomics) Midi Tower Case and you have silly money to throw around, well this is your baby. I say that knowing that if you have read this far, then you are slightly freaky and money is the last thing on your mind. (if, in fact, you have a mind!)

So, in conlclusion, my therapist tells me that it doesn't matter how many psychiatrists you have available to change a light-bulb, the light-bulb has got to want to change!!!!!

PS, I bought a second one of these from Amazon for my son - he uses it to keep his beer in!
