New Cooler Master houses for wet people
Cooler Master has unveiled the new N series mainstream houses. The interesting thing about the houses is that the manufacturer also prepared them for liquid-cooled use.
When designing the N-series housings, the goal was specifically to improve cooling. Up to eight 120-millimeter fans can be built into the new nooks, but as mentioned in the introduction, liquid cooling is not an enemy, and up to 240-millimeter heat sinks can be placed under the enclosure.
The two models just announced are the N300 and N500. There is also a difference in size between them. In addition to 300 8 vents, we can also use a 120 mm heat emitter in the smaller N240 housing, which can accommodate two more fans.
The larger N500 can accommodate up to 9 nine 120 fans, and even a 240mm heat sink can be used here, but up to four additional air fans can be installed.
Nor will those with a larger video card or SSD be disappointed. The Cooler Master has prepared the houses to accept cards like the HD7990. According to factory data, the maximum card length can be 320 millimeters for the N300 and 400 millimeters for the N500.
You can use two optical drives in the N300 and three in the N500. Eight pieces of hard drive space can be placed, but the N500 even provides space for an SSD. Hard disks and SSDs are cooled by front panel fans.
The housings are depending on the configuration with either two USB 3.0 or 1 USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 connectors on the front panel. USB 3.0 connectors not only excel at high data transfer rates, but are also suitable for fast charging of mobile devices.
The houses are expected to be available in Europe as early as this month.
