Review on 🌪️ Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh Airflow ATX Mid-Tower: Polygonal Mesh, Tempered Glass, E-ATX with ARGB Lighting Fans by Justin Live

PROS: - Exterior - Mesh front panel - Separate PSU compartment - Plenty of cable entries and feedthroughs - Plenty of hardware included - Price compared to similar designs - 3x 120mm RGB + controller contain. Sturdy and durable for a "budget" case. Great cooling options. Two radiator installation options up to 360mm, 240mm + 360mm can be installed at the same time. CONS: -Only 2 front USB HDD bays, screwed and riveted - should be removable -SSD mounting sleeve + pin - great idea but in practice cables will cause SSD to pop out -Rights/bottom not deep enough for cable management It is a real struggle, it requires a 3rd or 4th hand to install the metal plate properly - the PSU filter clips on dirt and should be the same magnet design. , appearance and price. Was a fairly simple build but I used a Seas onic 650w semi-modular power supply which isn't very deep. This left me some space behind the PSU for cable management and I only needed 1 modular section of it. So it wasn't difficult to install everything and get all the details you see in order. I like the offset top of the duct, which also made it easier to mount the 360mm radar on top. I didn't have any of the issues I often see in reviews such as: B. Transport damage or missing hardware. The biggest problem/difficulty was laying the cables. Case offers great opportunities to make beautiful the area you see. Terrible options to hide/redirect/manage what you want to hide. The hard drive bay's permanently attached "wall" prevents excess power cables from entering. The overall bandage/storage space for an unused length of cable is very, very shallow, and even the smallest cable runs and SSD connectors push against the back/right side of the case, making something like this difficult to close or accidentally detach RGB. 3-pin fan connector. I used braided white extensions and combs to look pretty. But that meant I was actually managing every bit of power cord behind the phone tray, and I just didn't have the space to do it well. About an inch lower on the right for cable routing would be ideal. Can (obviously) be used as is, but if you removed both side panels from my build you would look to one side and say "wow, how neatly put together" and then look to the other side and ask " What happened? ?
