Tech Arkade Jan 18, 2010 English Cooler Master Sniper
The Cooler Master Sniper really doesn't seem like a mid-tower. It's more like a small full-tower case that has almost an endless amount of features. When building my rig into this case I ran into 0 problems. It's big enough that I didn't have to try hard at all when putting the TRUE on, which can sometimes be a very laborious task.
Airflow in this case is very surprising when take into consideration the amount of noise it doesn't make. With the fans turned all the way down, my loudest component is the Sapphire HD5870. With the fans turned on high, the cases noise is still a bit quiter than my 5870 at idle fans of 21%. With 2 exhause fans and 1 intake fan practically right on the CPU, the TRUE keeps my CPU @ 3.4GHz topping out at 48 degrees C, which is very nice since I have 2 low profile Noctua fans on it. Another nice feature relating to the fans is the lighting. At night, the case doesn't punch you in the face with light, but instead it maintains a nice looking glow, and if you really don't like lights in your case, you can turn them off with just the touch of a button.

Benchmarkreviews.com Dec 14, 2009 English Benchmark Reviews Editors Choice Awards 2009 The mid-tower ATX computer case category is the most fiercely competitive market segment in the aftermarket industry, with literally hundreds of enclosures available to builders. Benchmark Reviews originally tested the CM Storm Sniper in January of 2009, and in the months that followed Cooler Master added several more names to the CM Storm series of mid-tower computer cases (such as the CM Storm Scout Gaming Case SGC-2000-KKN1-GP and CM Storm Sniper Black Edition). The CM Sniper SGC-6000-KXN1-GP model sells for $159.99, and delivers a wealth of premium-level components to the middle-market price segment. The cooling performance alone was enough to win our Golden Tachometer Award, and the added features at a reduced price all come together nicely in this gaming case to earn the Benchmark Reviews Editor's Choice Award for 2009.
