No room for 12inch videocards unless you remove the lower four hard drive bays.
The 1200RPM stock cooling may be a bit lacking for more demanding users
You can't use standard 80mm fans in the right side panel and VGA bracket
They have to be slim 15mm models
Side panels require a lot of force to be removed
Not enough dust filters
No sound dampening material
May be too tall for any location other than floor
Expansion card retaining latches incompatible on some video cards

The choice to further develop on their CM 690 case was a smart move on Cooler Masters part. The case isn't that big, but still has big potential when it comes to cooling and expansion. It's possible to fit a 120x240 radiator in both top and bottom...
