Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced Mini-ITX Case Review

Unboxing the Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced

The Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced comes packaged in a fairly plain brown cardboard box with black ink used for the images and text. This side shows a picture of the case and gives a few basic specifications. Youll also notice that they offer the Elite 120 Advanced with a PSU as well as denoted by the checkboxes on the bottom.

The opposite side of the box lists the specifications of the enclosed case.

Each end of the box is identical and lists a few specifications in several different languages.

The case itself is wrapped in a plastic bag then enclosed in a pair of Styrofoam end caps to prevent damage during transit. This is pretty much the norm for 99% of cases these days.

Once the case is shed of its packing we finally get to take a look at it. The case is clean and simply styled. It looks nice without being too over the top or flashy. Lets take a closer look at it now.

The Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced comes with a black and white owners manual and a small bag filled with accessories that is located inside the case.

The accessories bag contains a pair of tool-free HDD rails (the other
4 rails come pre-installed in the case with the 2 included 3.5 to 2.5
drive adapters), a bunch of small zip-ties, chassis speaker, 4
push-pins for installing a second 120mm fan on the inside of the HDD
cage (makes trying to squeeze in a large Phillips head screwdriver
unnecessary), 32 small screws for securing the 5.25 device, 4 brass
motherboard standoffs with Cooler Masters standoff installation tool
and finally 8 coarse-thread screws 4 for installing the motherboard
and the other 4 for installing the PSU.
