Review on 🖥️ Cooler Master Q500L Black MasterBox by Michal Cedronski ᠌

I took it for a non-trivial task: to transplant the contents of a full tower with most components > 10 years ago into a more compact case. In the end, everything worked out, but rather lucky, what you should pay attention to: 1. My atx PSU is 180mm long, installed at the very edge, it blocks the ability to install a video card over 270mm in the top pci-express slot. My video card is 280mm, but I was lucky that the motherboard had a second pci-express slot for sli. According to the PSU documentation, less than 160mm will allow you to install video cards up to 360mm, but it seems that the wires that stick out of the PSU are not taken into account here, they can greatly interfere 2. It’s not clear from the description, someone wrote in the reviews, but I repeat once again that you can install either two 3.5 hard drives, or four 2.5, or two 2.5 + one 3.5 hard drives (my version) as much as possible. At the same time, my old straight and L-shaped sata cables were very inconveniently connected to 2.5 (I put them in the upper section), I barely stuffed the power cables from the power supply too. The very idea of ​​​​arranging the disks near the back wall is ok, but for 2.5 they obviously haven’t been thought through to the end 3. Beautiful panels with photos are actually attached to the body with magnets. I have not yet understood whether this is good or bad, but carrying a block from place to place is not very convenient, that's for sure In general, the impressions are good for this price, I got rid of a huge clumsy tower and at the same time I did not have to change the filling to a more modern / compact
