Review on Cooler Master MasterBox E500L MCB-E500L-KN5N-S00 by Kirana ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Everything is fine, I liked the product, I bought it for a reason.

I wanted to assemble a relatively productive config in a compact package, the choice fell on this one. Specs: a hot ryzen 3800x is cooled by a scythe mugen 5 tower (everything fits perfectly, height is around 155mm). Installed 120mm coolers for blowing / blowing: Noctua NF-P12 actually for blowing (due to the excellent static pressure) and Noctua NF-S12B for blowing. The temperature inside the case was thus able to stabilize without the appearance of unnecessary noise. As advised below - it is better to use a modular PSU - this will give extra room for maneuver with cable management and layout. A hefty palit rtx 2060 super jetstream fit into the same case (not to be confused with the usual 2060, the sizes are fundamentally different), I believe that almost any video card will fit. In general, you can take it for relatively productive configs, the main thing is to calculate everything :) UPD: One significant point was discovered: when using an overall video card, it is impossible to fix the PSU so that it does not interfere with the frontal airflow of the processor. Those. cpu fan looks into the wall of this very PSU, and it will no longer be possible to move it down. I temporarily solved the problem with a powerful blowing fan mounted on the top wall of the case between the processor and the PSU. The solution does not seem to be optimal.

Pros
  • Compactness, layout of the internal space, ease of assembly, spaciousness.
Cons
  • I didn’t really like the materials (thin metal, plastic glass), there are some difficulties with blowing, a limitation on the height of the tower, the most dull regular cooler.

After assembling all the systems, the case became more rigid, the processor does not overheat under load.
