Cooler Master Scout 2 Advanced Case Review

The overall the layout is typical for an ATX chassis, drives are located at the front, power supply at the bottom and motherboard in the upper left.  You will notice an extremely large opening for swapping heatsinks and should accommodate any modern motherboard worthy of a high-end gaming rig.

Turning the case around you'll notice the cable routing area behind the motherboard along with some factory wires for the lighted fans.  There is almost an inch of space behind the motherboard tray giving you plenty of room for just about anything. 

The three external drive bays exit out the front of the case while all of the internal 3.5" drive bays face perpendicular.  This allows for easier cable routing  and really dresses things up.

As with most gaming cases it is really important to support extremely long expansion cards.  To facilitate this the outermost panel of the middle drive bay is removable with a few case screws.   If you happen to need more space for watercooling gear or your stash of vintage VHS tapes then break out the drill and start removing some rivets.  Doing so will remove the entire cage, along with all of the internal drive bays.
