Can you hear it?

Conclusion

In a nutshell, the Cooler Master HAF XM is an excellent chassis that offers everything you expect in this price class. You get excellent cooling capabilities, enough frontal connectors, lots of internal space and it's very user-friendly.

In addition you get some nice extras, such as an on-button for the fan illumination, room for a very large water cooling fan, two 3.5-inch hot-swap slots and a cable duct for the power supply. The stand-out quality of this chassis is the low noise production you get with the efficient cooling performance.

There are a few minor points of criticism as well. The hard disk trays are a bit flimsy, and the plastic on the top of the chassis could be of higher quality. That being said, this is really an ideal choice if you're looking for a chassis that cools well but doesn't generate a lot of noise at the same time. That is why the Cooler Master HAF XM earns the Hardware.Info Silver Award.
