Cooler Master is well respected for their computer cases, and Bigbruin.com has recently had the chance to enjoy a selection of their latest offerings in reviews. The most recent review conducted was of the
Centurion 532, and now we are back with another case from Cooler Master, the Centurion 534.
I have been using a Cooler Master Centurion 532 that I purchased on my gaming computer for about a month now. I figure the Centurion 534 would be an improvement on what I consider to be a really nice case. For this review I will be moving a different test system from its ancient eyesore of a tower case, into the Centurion 534.
Before diving into the heart of the review, let's look at some published data on the Centurion 534, taken from the

Packaging:
The
Cooler Master Centurion 534 came boxed with the standard Cooler Master & Centurion logos and full color image of the case with a glossy finish. Although the outside of the box had some wear from shipping, the case was in great shape. Removing the cardboard box reveals the standard packaging of plastic wrapped around the case with Styrofoam on the top and bottom.
