Seems to have a softer look to it aesthetically
Not a fan of mesh side panels
Big difference in pricing (USD and Euro). Pricey in Euro

Have to remove the PSU to access its filter
We have to admit that even before we removed the Cooler Master HAF XM from it's box we were expecting a quality product with tons of features. We are pleased to report that we were not disappointed. From the styling to the matte black finish on the he...
and FVCooler Master set out to make a mid-tower version of the HAF X with the HAF XM and I think in that they were very successful. What I find even more impressive is they have managed to fill the gap between the budget cases and the ultra-high end c...
The Cooler Master HAF XM could be the ideal case for gaming on a moderate budget. With ease the case will hold any of today’s gaming video cards as well as numerous drives and we can forget about support for eATX motherboards. These three things is wh...

Cooler Master wanted to create a mid tower version of the HAF X, so did they succeed? If you take a look at the case the HAF XM looks almost identical to the HAF X except it is a bit smaller and does not have the side panel window. If you look at the...
Abstract: The Cooler Master HAF series has arguably been one of the most successful case lineups in recent memory and the new HAF XM is hoping to continue that tradition. It is nearly as large as a full tower and packs an impressive list of features but it is p...

In the end I’m just impressed with the HAF XM. It might just be worthy of a BluePanda OCC Gold award, which undoubtedly is only the second one I’ve given since I joined the staff of OCC. Trust me it says a lot as I tend to be rather picky and it is we...
Manages to be aggressive without being gaudy. Quiet operation. Lots of fan options, includes 3x 200mm fans. Bay at the top for random pieces. Room to move
Thumbscrew to release top is a bit too close to skeleton of the case, making it difficult to remove. 5.25-inch bay covers can be fiddly. 3.5-inch drive bays can't be removed without drilling out rivets
We like the HAF XM; at AU$149, it gives you huge bang for buck, is well constructed and supports a variety of builds. Recommended....
Abstract: The HAF in this miditower case's name stands for high airflow and it's a term well deserved: this case has more fans than a U2 arena concert. Straight out of the box there are twin 200mm units at the top, another 120mm on the rear and one las...

In a nutshell, the Cooler Master HAF XM is an excellent chassis that offers everything you expect in this price class. You get excellent cooling capabilities, enough frontal connectors, lots of internal space and it's very user-friendly. In addition yo...
Starting with the build quality of Cooler Masters HAF XM we have a case which offers a nice, solid main body. It would be nice to see some additional metal used for the top and front panel but the plastic used (in addition to the mesh) is of a decent ...
