None
Relatively expensive
Rear fan box ineffective
Costly
Motherboard tray is not steel
Aluminum not thick enough in some areas
Front covers tend to fall into the chassis too easily
Black box in the rear rather useless
Screws to secure expansion cards are placed outside of the chassis

Very expensive premium product
May be too tall for any location other than floor
Side panels seem flimsy and could use a little extra thickness
Expansion slots stick outward from the case may be hard for card installations.
CoolerMaster’s ATCS 840 is an amazing case. I would highly recommend this case as long as you have the floor/desk space for it. Once all the internals are inside you wont enjoy toting it around as it is quite literally an armful (or in my case a gia...

Back in 2001, the ATCS series made big waves and Cooler Master was known for uncompromsing quality and innovation with the entire series. Nowadays with the changed economic structure and crowded case market, the ATCS 840 does still hold true to those v...
Abstract: Video Review: The Cooler Master ATCS 840 Case is one of the very best full-tower cases on the market. It has all the right ingredients; excellent air circulation provided by three 230mm fans and one 120mm fans (more optional fans can be added), dust filters on all intake fans, plenty of drive bays, looks great, superb design, quality build and so much more. Also, if you're looking for a case to install a large radiator this case does. It even comes with an external air duct to assists to pull warm air from the videos cards out of case. This case is currently the king of full-tower cases. Watch the video to find out more...
To begin with the Coolermaster 840 ATCS will set you back about $250 or so but I will also begin with telling you that it is well worth it. It is not often that you will find a case that easily fit as many standards as the 840. Size is one of the 840...

This case really is a winner; despite being launched back in 2008, it is still able to hold its own and offer much more than one can imagine. For a start, all the basics are done well; everything is functional and very easy to use.The classical brushed...

Cooler Master did it with the HAF 932 case I reviewed last year and has done it again. For those wanting the ultimate in cooling solutions this case has no less than 7 fan spots with three of them being of the 230mm variety. The removable motherboard t...

With the original ATCS chassis, Cooler Master brought the first truly custom alloy case to the market. Their ATCS 840 Classic has proven to be a worthy successor. With classic good looks and superb build quality, the 840 is poised to make as big an i...
