Cooler Master CM Storm Stryker Computer Case Review

Cases & PSU/Cases by stefan @ 2012-11-26

The CM Storm Stryker is a revised version of the previously launched Trooper, now coming in a white color and a nice side window. The air cooling performance is quite impressive even in the default configuration, the HDD cages position can be switched on our liking and the case also supports multiple fan configurations. A small accessory box can be found at the bottom of the enclosure, X-DOCK allows quick installation of 2.5'' drives in the front and the included fan controller can drive up to 4x120mm fans.

The exhaust fan opening on the back features holes for both 120mm and 140mm fans:

 

 

 

On the top there are 3 holes for water cooling:

 

 

 

Near them we can observe the third removable filter:

 

 

 

 

The side panels are kept securely closed with two thumb screws each:

 

 

 

 

When looking from the top, we can see that the case features a very "sporty" design and a central rubber handle, to carry around the case much easier:
