Another nice touch with the HAF 700 EVO is the front panel. If you are an RGB enthusiast then you will like the look of the HAF 700 from the front. The combination of RGB illuminated glass and the LCD Iris display looks the business. The LCD display can also be easily configured and customised using the MasterPlus+ software. Having the display on the front of the case makes it easy for the user to keep an eye on system info or add personalisation. The Cooler Master HAF 700 flows air very nicely and can support almost any cooling hardware you may wish to throw in its direction. Having said that, if you ramp up the fan speeds it can get noisy so we suggest you run the 120mm case fans at 1,200rpm or slower. We were surprised to find the enormous 200mm fans at the front were happy to run at their maximum 1,000rpm without being too intrusive. Nonetheless we think Cooler Master is offering good advice when they suggest you take it easy and only run them at '11' once in a while. Closing Thoughts A built-in real-time Iris status monitor is positioned in the prime location centrally on the front of the case. Iris is fully customisable via the Cooler Master MasterPlus+ software allowing users to display system info or add their own personal touch.
I appreciate how Cooler Master balanced modernizing the original HAF, without cutting out all the original design, and specifically its excellent performance. During the thermal tests, radiator fans were fixed to 850RPM and the front 200mm intake fans were fixed at 500RPM which meant that noise levels were on the low side. Removing panels only slightly increased noise levels but the system noise was still not distracting at all. Included vertical GPU mounting kit with a PCIe Gen4 riser for complete support of the latest generation graphics cards. The included infinity mirror can also be placed below the graphics card and angled to display the GPU RGB features usually hidden away in horizontal orientation.I don’t expect anything more from a PC case. The HAF 700 EVO sets a new benchmark for a next generation of high-end premium desktop full tower case. It is highly usable, spacious, performs extremely well in terms of cooling, and also very versatile as well. Of course, we can’t forget about how the case brings “tool-less” design to the next level.
We like the Cooler Master HAF 700 EVO, it's certainly different when compared to other cases on the market. It sits in a similar sector as big cases like the Corsair Obsidian 1000D but in terms of looks and ease of installation, the HAF 700 is better in almost every department, the only area that the 1000D wins is with its dual system support. Unfortunately, since we only installed components which we had lying around, there was no proper considerations if our motherboard can fully support all features of the case. That is why, we weren’t able to fully utilize all the features of the case. You must take note that your motherboard need to have these headers, so that you can use all of the case’s features: Horrible resonance in the included main HD case. I have four drives installed in this and when they are on and spinning (not sleeping) there is horrible noise coming from resonant vibration from drives through cage and into main frame. It is not constant either, keeps changing tone/frequencies of noise - sounds like a hairdressers shaver going all the time! Cage should have been insulated or dampened better to prevent vibration resonance amplifying through entire metal of case.
Customer reviews
Not only is the HAF series about high airflow chassis design, but according to Cooler Master it also brings innovative new features that we may see implemented into more or all chassis in the future. So, what’s new in the HAF 700 EVO I hear you say? Well, the engineers have put a big emphasis on tool-free installation which is noticeable as soon as you remove the case panels in preparation to begin your installation.
This means that the case should be great for installing a complex custom loop cooling system due to its size and radiator support, we expect to see plenty of exotic builds in the Cooler Master HAF 700 EVO. There has also been a big push on the front panel design with the HAF 700 EVO, tempered glass slats are illuminated by RGB lighting and an LCD Iris display is positioned centrally between the glass which gives the front of the case a very unique look.If you are looking for a new top of the line desktop PC case for that workstation or that no-compromise gaming build you have always dreamed about, the HAF 700 EVO is one serious contender. You just have to make sure that you motherboard is good enough to be worthy of the case (not the other way round). KitGuru says: If you are keen on the Cooler Master HAF 700 you may as well go all-in and instead opt for the HAF 700 EVO. When the whole system gets powered on, you will now know that what you’ve went through building the whole system is all worth it. Nowhere does it say you need 2 x USB 3.0 19-pin header – for 4 x USB 3.0 Type-A ports at the front of the case
