Cooler Master MasterCase H500P Mesh ARGB - PC Case with Dual 200mm Fans for High-Volume Airflow, Builder-Focused Chassis Panels, Liquid Cooling Ready

Before I built my current computer, I used CoolerMaster's HAF X case and I was looking for a comparable case. I was always happy with the HAF X, but it was time to move on to something new for the new build. I did a lot of research on cases, knowing I wanted to stay with CoolerMaster. The H500P came up on a lot of review sites and had negative reviews, due to the plastic part at the front restricting airflow. The H500M had much better reviews, but was twice the price. Then I saw this case, the H500, which was a good combination of airflow (thanks to the mesh, although it does come with an optional plastic panel as well) and price. I usually prefer full tower cases so I have lots of room to work, but this case was roomy enough for me to get everything I needed in without too much discomfort. The case comes with 2 RGB front fans and fan controller, which I used to set mine to green, as shown in the first photo. I must put a disclaimer, though, that the case DOES NOT come with 2 top fans or the light strip as seen in the second photo. I ordered and installed those separately. The top part of the case has a magnetic dust filter which is easily removed and cleaned. The bottom part of the case has a dust filter for the PSU that can be easily removed and cleaned as well. The glass side panel makes for a nice view at the components. Overall, I'm really happy with this purchase and would recommend this case to anyone looking to build a new PC. PS: As a side note, I have to add that I was looking up whether a Noctua NH-D15 would fit in this case, but found no reviews on any site that would help me, so I thought I'd post it here. CoolerMaster says the CPU cooler clearing is 167mm and Noctua says their cooler is 165mm with both fans attached. 2mm is not a lot of space to gamble on, but I took the risk and can safely say that mine fits like a glove. The Noctua does not touch the glass side panel of the case whatsoever. If you're looking into doing this type of setup, make SURE you have the Noctua's fans mounted as close to the motherboard as you can without touching any components (RAM, etc.). Any higher and they WILL touch the glass panel, so adjust them as needed until it fits correctly.

I have wanted this case since it released :D The second I saw it, I knew I wanted it in my dream build! The amazing ventilation and the variety of water cooling support it gives if you wanna go down that route is really generous. Since I'm not doing water cooling, it meant I had room to personalize the interior with a few lego figures The opportunity to swap out the front mesh for glass is really nice, I'm gonna keep it mesh myself as I prefer airflow and there are still three glass windows on the sides and top which gives your system the chance to be pretty and eye-catching! The only drawback is baring finger-prints in mind Harddrive space is really generous too, given how more and more people are moving to SSDs over mechanicals. It makes sense for only 2 HDD slots but 7 SSD mounts, hell you could even use one of them for any third-party RGB devices (which I intend to do!) I also wanna say that there is plenty of room in the case for cable tidy providing you know what you're doing. As someone who has never built in a full-size case like this, it was a new challenge but one I was very happy to take on! So with all that in mind, I am gonna wrap this review and just say that this case is amazing. Worth the money! Definitely is the best version of this case from CoolerMaster, I know they released two prior versions which are nice but for me, this one is so sleek, fun to build in, looks sexy and just has the right balance to between function and form! 10/10!

This case was my first build and it really helped. Great for cable management, although a tad tight at the back but plenty of options for cable routing. Brilliant selection of mounts, power shroud good. Loads of screws, velcro and normal ties included. The flexibility is awesome as you can mount radiators top or front, will take all sizes. I just mounted 240mm radiator CPU water cooler to front fans and the 2x120mm to top (from water cooler). Front RGB fans are great and sync with MB. Easy to plug in once you suss out the cables from the case (took me a while!). Good selection of ports (2xUSB 3.0, 2x2.0 etc). It runs fantastically cool and quiet. Major airflow (don't use the plastic panel!) and looks great. It's also easy to carry due to handle at the top on the front end. The full window smoked panel is perfect for viewing. For the price I found this the best option, and I did look at a lot of cases!

Great build quality, good balance between minimalism and with a bit of RGB. I love the two big front fans. Found the instructions very difficult to follow at times as to wiring of fans/rgb. Easy cable management with good access points. Brilliant airflow options.

Purchased as a replacement case for an existing i7 build to improve airflow and future proof for a planned upgrade later in the year. Moving the existing components into the case was an easy process, and there is plenty of space to work in and to get a nice tidy finish. Noise levels are fine with the 200mm fans and a tower air cooler on the CPU. If you are replacing an existing PC/case just check the overall dimensions as it's on the larger side compared to a lot of old pre-built systems, make sure it will fit where you plan to put it! The mesh front is working well to keep dust and pet hair out and is easy to clean off as it's flat and there are no bars or fancy details to get in the way. Very pleased with this and would recommend. Just need more RGB to go inside when I do the upgrade later in the year.

Very nice case, plenty of space inside and on back panel for cable management. I had an NZXT S340, which is also a very good case, but the H500 is far superior in my opinion and well worth the money. Pros: - Plenty of space inside for motherboard and GPU. - PSU shroud is a nice touch. - Good room for cable management. - Fans are quiet (at least compared to stock NZXT S350's) - Good airflow (provided you use the mesh front panel and not the acrylic window FP) - Looks pretty nice too! Cons: - PSU shroud has to be removed to install PSU (not really that much of a con, just takes time to remove and screw back in etc) So all in all, this is a very nice case for the money (I spent €120, or just over £100) Definitely recommend!

Absolutely love this Case. First PC Build in 8 plus years. Loads of space inside to easily get to installed Motherboard and entry of room behind for hiding cables. Also being a Coolermaster Case it was easy to add an extra two CM case fans and led strips for more Bling Factor! I bought a semi modular PSU, so even easier to keep things looking clean. Not using the included Platic front panel as I prefer max cooling but the Mesh looks the Dogs. Had to wait a while for delivery but well worth it. Now i have an AMD 2700k and MSI Tomahawk Max paired with a GIgabyte GTX1660 looking very cool and well lit up in this beaut. No negatives so far but I'll see how it fairs over time and amend if necessary?

Decent case when it first started off. But once your pc is running for about 2 weeks the tiny amount of dust it collects clogs up the limited airflow mesh. Had to clean it every 2 weeks to keep my pc from overheating and i didn’t even have high end parts. Also the front and top panel are acrylic and, they scratch very easy (H500P) 3/10 The h500m is the better case, I also bought this item and it fixes all the problems mentioned above. Glass front and top panel, mesh front panel no dust build up ! This item is 10/10
