Cooler Master Storm Sniper Case Review

Packaging & Accessories


The Cooler Master Storm Sniper ships in a fairly large and colourful box. Some of the product’s key features are listed alongside some exterior shots of the case. To be honest, we had a very strong desire to play a few rounds of Counter Strike after staring at the box for a few minutes.


Although the box was fairly large, it was not terribly wide, which concerned us since the last thing anyone wants to see if their latest purchase damaged during shipping. Online part vendors do not package these behemoth boxes within other boxes for shipping purposes, so it is understandably important to have a well padded and spaced package.


Thankfully, our sample arrived in good condition, but the small amount of Styrofoam protects only the top and bottom of the case. This means that there is only a thin spacing between the sides of the case and the cardboard exterior. The entire case is enclosed in a plastic bag to keep the dust out.


Not a lot is included with the Sniper in the way of accessories. Four rubber feet, two water cooling grommets, a bag of screws and some 3.5 inch drive bay rails are included. Cooler Master includes a thorough manual with many diagrams. Any installation issues will likely be addressed there. For anyone interested, the manual is also available online.
