CoolerMaster launched the Storm brand at CES 2009. While we were there, one of our meetings was with the CoolerMaster marketing team.  The Storm series is built for gamers by gamers. CoolerMaster teamed up with cyber athletes and other eSport prodigies to bring The Storm Sniper to life.

 
This is the first case in the Storm series and the second, The Storm Scout, is soon to follow. CoolerMaster boasts excellent cooling capabilities with minimal noise with the design. The case is large enough to accommodate most hardware set ups including some water cooling with out being too intrusive. With its outward appearance resembling that of most military weapons, the sniper perhaps takes it''s namesake deservingly or is it just a shot in the dark.

CoolerMaster is an industry veteran with plenty of cases under their belt and competition over the last few years has lead to some fairly innovative design changes and integrated features that enthusiast's desire. The quest for quieter operations while maintaining similar cooling performance has prompted most manufactures to use 200+ cm fans. Larger fan blades can move large amounts of air at a lower RPM thus reducing noise. Most manufactures are including access ports for water cooling setups allowing consumers to set up custom cooling solutions easier.
