The Cooler Master MasterBox 3.1 Lite case forms the basis of our Onyx system on test today. The tempered glass side panel and glossy appearance looks fantastic while showing off the internals at the same time.
The glossy front panel has the Cooler Master and Stormforce logos attached, with a small amount of ventilation at the top and bottom. Unfortunately, when we removed the plastic film from the front, dust was attached to it within a matter of seconds, which was incredibly difficult to remove. If dust is something that will annoy you, beware.
The front IO houses a USB 3.0 and 2.0 port, power button, audio input and output and a small reset button.
On the rear theres a reasonable selection of ports. Starting at the top:
Separate keyboard and mouse PS/2 ports
DVI
VGA
HDMI
2x USB 3.0
2x USB 2.0
Gigabit Ethernet
3x 3.5mm Audio connections
The graphics card has three DP ports, an HDMI and a single DVI.
Under the graphics card is the wireless card with twin aerials.
