CoolerMaster has been a heavy hitter in the computer case industry for quite some time. They continually bring out cases that not only have an enormous amount of functionality, but carry with them that certain sex appeal that CoolerMaster has become known for. From the WaveMaster series to the Stacker series, many have attempted to follow but few have stood up to these great cases. CoolerMaster cases are a tribute to outstanding design, functionality, and craftsmanship.

Today, I bring to you yet another case from CoolerMaster. This one is designed with the LAN gamer in mind. Let's find out what today's LAN gamer can expect to receive when they purchase the CoolerMaster Ammo 533.


Intial Reaction & Packaging
The packaging is your standard computer case packaging. The exterior was a glossed cardboard with images and specifications of the products. Inside, the case was in a plastic bag securely tucked between two pieces of form-fitted Styrofoam. When I opened the box, the first thing I noticed was the handle on the top of the case. I grabbed a hold of it to lift the case out. The plastic removed, the case stood all shiny and new with a number of features on the exterior of the case that were particularly interesting.
