FSP has announced two new mid-tower cases: the FSP CMT330 and the FSP CMT520. The two new cases feature FSP’s “halo cover” mirrored floor plate which sits on top of the power supply cover, and the same interior, but are styled quite different on the exterior. The CMT520 has the more premium look of the two and includes glass front and side panels as well as an integrated LED and fan controller. The CMT330 uses an acrylic side panel, no glass front, and adds support for 5.25-inch drives. Both mid-tower chassis are targeted gamers and enthusiasts who would like a premium look at an affordable price point.

The exterior of the CMT520 does have a more premium appearance to it with its glass side and front panels allowing an unfettered view of the hardware inside the case. Though there isn't as much glass as the CMT510 with three glass panels, the CMT520 offers a full view of the parts many want to show off. The 520’s I/O panel is also at an angle between the top and front of the case. Both of the chassis use upgraded front I/O panel that consists of two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, a power button, and microphone and headphone jacks (no USB 3.1 Type-C or Type-A). The front of the 520 holds three RGB LED fans as well as another on the back panel (all four included) sending air through the interior and out the back and top. The fans and RGB can be controlled through an integrated controller and is compatible with existing RGB LED ecosystems from major board partners.
