Guys, thinking to upgrade from CM690 pure to other casing. Budget below RM250. Any recommend? Prefer with nice cable management.

Depends on Mobo. Some like Asus/MSI have it built in but you have to turn it on for it to work. Asrock usually works by default and so does ECS

top up a lil bit and get HAF 912 Adv.

ic.. so just need to turn it on? i assume u do it in bios?

my gigabyte 870A-UD3 has 2 front panel usb sockets, 1 is for normal, another 1 is the power on even u shutdown the pc. so depending on your mobo. go read your mobo manual or the most easiest solution is turn off the power supply switch. i always did tat when i m out.

Even my pc turn off my PC Asus P6T SE usb 2, I still can charge my SE X10, ipod touch 4(with Asus Ai charger) and usb mini fan blade rotating .

hey guys, just wanna share this,

Cooler Master, an industry leading chassis, thermal solution, power supply, peripheral, and accessory manufacturer, today adds a new sibling to the Silencio 550, the Silencio 450.

The Silencio Series represents the best solution for sound absorption with system builds of all levels. Sound silencing foam padding seeks to severely reduce system noises produced by hard drives, numerous cooling fans, and other devices. Combine this with a solid-steel frame, vibration inhibiting rubber feet, two Cooler Master quiet-spinning fans and the Silencio 450 nearly becomes completely silent. Those that value a quiet computing space will immensely appreciate the Silencio Series.



Intelligent Interior
Look beyond the modest exterior of the Silencio 450 to find a clean, intuitive, and spacious interior. Three 5.25”, six 3.5”, and one 2.5” hard drive bay are set inside a solid steel frame. An easily-removable hard drive cage allows users to mix and match various hard drives for maximum flexibility and drive space. Removal of the included hard drive cage opens the door for the possibility of installing high-end graphics cards such as the AMD Radeon HD 6990 or NVIDIA GTX 590. Super Speed, backwards-compatible USB 3.0 and a versatile SD card reader provides users with several ways to connect data on-the-fly. A surprisingly efficient intake-exhaust cooling system throughout the interior provides for maximum airflow. Dust filters protect precious system components from potentially dangerous dust build-up over time. These can be accessed quickly for easy maintenance. Users taking the next step in silent cooling may opt for a custom watercooling setup. The Silencio 450 includes rear retaining holes that support optional water cooling radiator installations.



A switchable door hinge creates an added level of convenience as well. A clean exterior design, brimming with features and reasonable price make the Silencio 450 the perfect silent partner for any enthusiast.

nice info

very fast to have new model...i wonder when they will update cm690ii

when cm690 III ?

Is it possible to find rubber grommet for CM690 II?

I like the rubber grommet in Corsair carbide 400r
Looks very neat and superb for cable management. Anyone here know whr can buy the rubber grommet?

Really unknown for now...

Cause it really fits the budget case and little improvement could be made.

I used rubber screws on my CM690II. got it at garage sales from niclasteoh. Now lingloong also sells them.

I think what he meant is this...



For cable routing...

Do you mean rubber grommet? If it is..Then it's neither holes nor screws.

AFAIK they dont sell this. have to wait until cm690III, that is if they ever did put it.

or you could DIY it. (need to find someone who sells those black rubber sheets)
