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.

A Closer Look Part IV

The motherboard tray has a small guide printed on it which shows where to place the spacers depending on what type of motherboard we are installing:

On the top we have preinstalled a single 200mm fan; in the same place we can fit in either two 120mm fans or two 140mm:

On the back we have an additional 140mm exhaust fan preinstalled:

In the PSU area, we have multiple rubber bands installed:

All 9 expansion slots are provided with ventilated black covers and thumb screws:

The two fans we have mentioned earlier are 120mm and are meant to cool the HDD/SSD cages:

One extra 2.5'' drive cage is present on the bottom of the case:

The frontal 5.25'' covers can be removed by pressing onto the lateral black plastic clips; these are also fitted with filters:

As we have mentioned before, one of the covers has a 3.5'' adapter included:
