Introduction
We’ve noticed a flood of new cases over the past few months hitting the market by some very big names in the industry, launching new case designs with a variety of aesthetics and features, for all types of consumer needs.  Even smaller companies seem to be getting in on the action as well.  We’re not exactly sure what has spurred the deluge, but we’re very happy to see it happening, as more selection generally means happier consumers (ourselves included), provided that the products are well designed and solidly built.  But that’s always the crux of the issue, isn’t it?

One of those manufacturers who has seen their lineup grow is Cooler Master.  An industry veteran with a wide offering of products, Cooler Master has been very busy of late launching several new cases, and today we’ll be looking at their latest, the Sniper, first in their new CM: Storm series lineup.  As you can probably surmise, the Sniper is a tower that is targeted (no pun intended, honest) toward the gamer crowd, offering several robust features that are typically in demand by this market segment.

Our thanks go to our friends at Cooler Master for supplying the review sample.

Cooler Master was founded with the mission of providing the industry's best thermal solutions. Since its establishment a decade ago, the company has remained faithful to this mission, emerging as a world leader in products and services for companies dealing with devices where heat issues must be resolved.  The cornerstones of Cooler Master's philosophy are innovation, speed, and customer satisfaction. Together, these ensure that Cooler Master is the supplier that the companies around the world rely on to deliver the best thermal solutions, creating a win-win situation both for Cooler Master and the companies that become its customers.


Let’s take a look at the Cooler Master Sniper and see if it comes up bullseye or snake eyes.
