The editors liked

  • Good design
  • Price
  • Enough space for a fairly large GPU
  • Can contain quite a powerful system. Will take a full-sized graphics card. Extra room for long PSUs. Incredibly cheap

The editors didn't like

  • Lack of space for big chip chillers
  • A bit boring as far as looks go
  • Limited flexibility. Cooling options aren't great

  • Here I sit really torn as to which way to go with the Elite 120 Advanced. Its main competition the BitFenix Prodigy is better equipped, and in my opinion, it took the design to the edge, without making things look gross. On the flip side, that chassis...

  • Can contain quite a powerful system. Will take a full-sized graphics card. Extra room for long PSUs. Incredibly cheap
  • Limited flexibility. Cooling options aren't great
  • At AU$59, it's hard to complain too much about the Elite 120 Advanced's lack of flexibility. A mid-ranged system should be perfectly happy inside it. Still, unless you're space challenged, it's worth springing more cash on BitFenix's Prodigy instead....

  • With a painted interior, simple and sleek exterior, and support for extended, high-end hardware the Elite 120 Advanced from Cooler Master is a perfect fit in either the HTPC or LAN party rig. No overly obnoxious lighting or loud fans mean the Elite 120 w...

  • It's apparent that Cooler Master designed the Elite 120 Advanced to be as affordable and compact as possible while offering enough space for housing a fairly powerful mini-ITX system. While it is a rather small case, it's overly large for a basic Atom...

  • Quite affordable Mini-ITX chassis, Very good construction, Simple, but effective interior, External frame, allowing for larger PSUs, Screw-less design for drive bays, Long graphics cards will easily fit, Up to five hard drives may be installed, thanks to
  • Only the most compact CPU coolers will fit, Screw-less system does not work that well for ODDs, No dust filter on some intake fan locations, I/O cables a bit too long, No real dust filter in the top vent for the PSU, Only one USB 3.0 plug. One USB 2.0 plu
  • The Cooler Master Elite 120 chassis may look like most other Mini-ITX form-factor cases out there, but it actually bears no surprises since the hard drive bays are located on the front and the full size ODD is placed above that. Cooler Master managed t...

  • Abstract:  Whenever someone mentions a gaming configuration, what comes to mind is a big-tower chassis, such as one of Cooler Master's HAF models, which has a lot of room and numerous fans for the cooling of all those blazing overclocking components. However, ov...

  • Though our stress testing evidently proved too much for the Elite 120 Advanced to handle effectively, particularly in terms of CPU cooling, we feel it would be unfair to dismiss it entirely based solely on this as there are a number of things that work to...

  • Uses standard ATX power supplies (preferably modular), Full sized 5.25" device bay, Three front USB ports (1 USB 3.0), Excellent ventilation for hard drives, Aggressively priced, Lots of tie down points for cable management,
  • No intake air filters, Very little clearance above motherboard, Limited ventilation for processor and motherboard, No integrated memory card reader
  • The Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced case is the result of solid design with a real sense of what system builders need. The fact that it's a mere $49.99 is a bonus. A min ITX case doesn't have the expansion capability of a full sized case, but a 5.25"...

  • No dust filters
  • If you are looking for a great HTPC or Gaming Rig that small in size but large in stature, The Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced should definitely be on your short list ....
