By When I design a PC, I like it to resemble a chic small refrigerator or even a wood-paneled mid-century speaker. I can still appreciate it when I see it, even though I don’t myself do the RGB-bedazzled, action-figures-behind-the-tempered-glass thing. This new Cooler Master case may be ideal for such a build.
It’s not exactly a novel Cooler Master MasterFrame360. A version of it that displayed PC internals from nearly every perspective was visible to us at Computex 2025. Cooler Master, however, is now offering a limited-edition, pre-configured PC with a Ryzen 9 9800X3D and RTX 5080 combo. A leak from Hardware & Co. via VideoCardz indicates that the company is preparing to launch its own ATX case shortly. It is now time to dust out your most magnificent, albeit financially ruinous, Gundam showcase and place it in the front compartment.
The entirely transparent “panorama” version of the MasterFrame 360 that we saw at Computex, the “Stage Mirror” version with a more conventional black shell, and the “Stage LCD” version with a large 15.6-inch screen behind the “stage” area are the three versions that are purportedly planned. Dedicated RGB lighting will illuminate anything you’re showcasing on the front shelf—I’m thinking about Hatsune Miku with the LCD-equipped model, specifically. If you require additional room for, say, projecting plastic guns or wings, a glass front panel seems to be an optional feature.
With a triple-slot section for specialized vertical installation and a GPU riser included, it appears to be a fairly normal case design aside from the stage. Cards up to 430mm long can be handled by it.
According to reports, the transparent and mirror versions will cost $200 USD, while the LCD-packing variant will cost $300 USD. Shipping is scheduled for later this year. which ought to provide you with the time to complete the MG Epyon EW Special Coating and locate all the compatible Asus components you can.
