Kitguru Says
We really like this case but it just needs to have a little more to justify the price tag
When reviewing, one of the first things we look at, or rather get a feel for is the quality of a product. There are certain manufacturers who stand that little bit taller than the others in this field and Cooler Master is one of them. From the top of t...
Overall the chassis is great, internals too as by removing the upper drive cage even the most lengthy graphics card will fit, heck even two of them if your motherboard allows it. Then there's place for liquid cooling, the really nice motherboard cutout a...
I know for a fact that Cooler Master has good cases in their repertoire, and they offer them at all price points. I actually quite like Cooler Master's hardware; the sheer amount of hit and miss in their line is something I chalk up largely to the breadth...
When it's all said and done and we look back at all of our testing. There was one major issue that still bothers me. The original Scout had two 140mm fans and one 120mm fan. This time around the Scout 2 only comes with a single 120mm LED fan. Sure it doe...
The Cooler Master CM Storm Scout 2 arrived some three years after the original CM Storm Scout hit the market, however, I think it was worth the wait. I feel that the case is more refined than the original and is currently at a price point that most LAN pa...

More attractive than the original Scout, slightly improved internals, USB 3.0 connectivity.
Loss of eSATA from the original design, weak stock cooling set up for a $90 enthusiast case.
Having released the CM Storm Scout three and a half years ago, Cooler Master has had plenty of time to update its design, and when it comes to aesthetics, we think the company has greatly improved the original product. The Scout 2's smooth lines and detai...
Heavy duty carrying handle, Room for up to 7 hard drives, Support for long video cards, Side panel window, Easy installation
Only a single 120mm fan included
Looking at the CM Storm Scout 2 nothing really jumps out to me, but with that said I do like this case. It would be a case I would recommend to anyone looking for a case in this price range especially a gamer who would be taking their machine to LAN p...
Cooler Master's Scout 2 possesses a lot of potential, however it will need additional cooling options to reach that point. It is extremely easy to overload a single fan when you pack in all the heat generating hardware. In a perfect configuration, the Sco...

Strong carrying handle, USB 3.0 internal connection, Cable routing holes in motherboard tray, CPU backplate installation cutout in motherboard tray, Fan LED on/off, Power supply filter easily cleaned, Many fan options
Only 1 included fan, Please drop by the Bigbruin.com Forum and feel free to post any comments or questions
With Cooler Master's reputation of producing high quality cases, the Scout 2 does not fail to impress. It is a nice update to the original Scout, which is 2 years old and starting to show its age. Integrating USB 3.0, a refined style with more curves, a s...
Easy to build in, Nice looking, Comfortable handle, Good price
No front fan included, Back fan is fairly loud
This is a very nice case, we had no issues installing our test setup in this case, and there is still plenty of space for example for watercooling. The only flaw that I could find is that there is no front fan and the fan that is mounted in the back c...
