Cooler Master Masterbox Q300P Chassis Review

The Exterior

The chassis is only a mid-tower suitable for Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. It’s compact and offers a small overall footprint. Still, the exterior look of the chassis looks mighty impressive to me.

No tempered glass here only Acrylic windows. In fact, I prefer Acrylic windows because it’s light-weight, however it can be easily scratched. 

The handles come with rubber grips, which I really like. And because the angles of the handles are designed in such a way … the whole chassis can be rotated upside-down, on-top or original position.

The overall construction and build quality of the chassis is very good. There’s smoothed edges all round the chassis and the Acrylic side, top and front panels can be removed and detached with ease.

 

The Interior

When the chassis is empty, the interior looks so spacious 😀 There are various cables for RGB, I/O panel, HD audio, USB 3.0, Molex power and 3-pin case fans. The back of the motherboard try has plenty of options for cable management, and I like the fact you and move the I/O panel to various positions on the chassis.

 

Installation

Space is a premium, so as expected things can get a bit tight. Here, I’ve installed a 850W PSU, a micro ATX motherboard, a standard length Radeon RX 480 and a 280mm AIO cooler (not suggested, but I did it anyway). The recommended size is 240mm.

 

The Finished Item

Here we have the finished item. Fans are powered up, and the side panels secured. The whole system is nice and compact, and using the built-in handles, I can easily move and transport it around with no issues. It’s a portable gaming/mining rig … just how I want it!
