Hi all,

We have just published a review of *Cooler Master's Sniper** chassis*.
If you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

*/At ?120 the Sniper is competing with a big portion of the enthusiast
case market, not to mention other Cooler Master products in the form of
the HAF 932, that is now outstanding value at just ?92. The RC-1000
version of the Cosmos, is also now available for just over ?130,
essentially making Cooler Master compete with itself!

At this price there¡¯s also competition from Akasa in the form of its
Omega, although like the Sniper you¡¯ll need to add a pair of your own
120mm cooling fans to get the best out of it and there¡¯s also the ever
present competition of the Antec P182.

It¡¯s a shame really as while the Sniper is clearly very well put
together, well thought out and packs some exclusive and very attractive
features, it¡¯s been slightly let down by some obvious cost cutting
attempts and a price tag that¡¯s ?20 too high (we realise the oxymoron).
That 240mm side panel fan alone would have gone a long way to improve
thermal performance and would have helped to justify the price tag.

For the most part Cooler Master has another great case to add to its
ever increasing big brand line-up, but while it¡¯s exhibited a great deal
of good ideas and a lot of potential, we can¡¯t help but wonder how much
better the Sniper could have been if the designers hadn¡¯t been held back
quite so much./
