We could use more LEDs
Interior is unpainted
A side fan would be nice.
Heavy
No Carrying Handle
Only One Red LED Fan
Fairly heavy
Fans are quite loud
Plenty of openings means that the noise of internal parts may be a problem
I cut my finger on the metal where the case meets the PSU
But I can hardly blame the case for pressing my finger against something that would not be described as sharp.
The first thing we want to note in this conclusion is that each of the three tested system cases is capable of being an easy-to-use enclosure for computer components and providing sufficient cooling for them. However, each of them has certain nuances....

Coolermaster did a great job of welcoming me to the computer building world with this great case! The massive fans on this thing keep my system cool all day long. There was plenty of room to work in and I never once felt cramped putting together this b...
CoolerMasterBoth cases offer excellent cooling options. Out of the box, the HAF 932 is far superior to the 922 thanks to it's included side mounted 230mm fan. You really don't need anything extra with the 932 to get the best cooling capacity. It has p...
Abstract: After spending some time with Cooler Master's original HAF932, I was looking forward to testing the latest HAF922 case. This version has a much smaller footprint that it's big brother, but still has ample room for the largest components. The HAF922 cam...
Abstract: The Cooler Master HAF 922 is a bold case that doesn't compromise in its scale. It's got everything covered that a hardware enthusiast would need, but priced more towards someone working on a budget. And it does it without losing much by the way of qual...
Abstract: Along with the development of electronics over the past years, the more simple products like chassis design, are changing every year as well. Design is very susceptible to the time we live in. Right now, more simple, not too flashy is a trend, and pe...
Abstract: Video Review: Like it's big brother the HAF 932, the Cooler Master HAF 922 Case has the same military theme, great styling, excellent build quality, lots of fans, plenty of drive bays and much more. If you are in the market for a Mid-Tower case be sure to consider this one! Watch the video to find out more...
Excellent Airflow, Tool Free, Radiator Space, Build Quality, Design, Spacious Interior, On / Off Forward LED Switch
Somewhat Noisy, No Dust Filters
Although the HAF 922 is not as big and so as spacious as the HAF 932 Cooler Master has improved it a bit by removing the plastic locking mechanism found on the expansion slots and replacing it with thumb screws, adding a better fan on the f...
Very Good Airflow, Extremely Quiet, Very easy to Install/Service, Liquid Cooling Ready
Cannot mount rad in the top of the case
This case is nothing short of amazing, and I am really not surprised by its stellar performance. Installation of hardware was a breeze, and the higher airflow and increased space helped bring down the temperatures of the test system by an average of 1...
