This is a rather interesting case. It's a cube, but it accepts even oversized ATX boards like the 990FXA-UD7. The HAF (High Air Flow) name is lived up to I think, because while it only has two 120 mm fans, they are perfectly situated to push air over al...
Unusual, visually interesting design, Exceptional air flow across the full width of the motherboard, Hot swap bays for two 3.5" drives, Easier to build a neat system, Very sturdy construction, Actually can be used both as LAN box and test bed, Excellent price/performance,

Solid build in a small stature, Great cooling and easy cable routing, It's kinda CUTE, but makes for a hell of LAN rig, Cost for the quality can't be beat...
Strange shape, Front fans are LOUD without a fan controller...
the HAF XB brings back the BluePanda "Gold" award. I choose to give few gold awards here on OCC and reserve them for the products that really deserve them by going above and beyond expectations in a product. To be honest the HAF XB is cheap as hell fo...
So, what do we think about the Cooler Master HAF XB? All things considered, we believe that this casing is perfect for individuals in the gaming community. It's compact and light, weighing at only 8.2kg, you actually don't feel the weight even after all t...
LAN Box Transforming Test BenchCooler Master definitely did its homework and brought a lot of features with the HAF XB. With the mainstream vertically-oriented cases, the horizontal orientation found in this case is definitely one that catches attention...
