"After the c700p chassis pays tribute to the classic cosmos series, a new member of the mastercase family, mastercase h500p, was born. When I saw this chassis, Xiaobian found that it has the luminous point on Cosmos c700p and the idea of freeform modularization of mastercase series.
On this basis, it also has its own unique side, such as the side transparent panel with armor like appearance and two 200mm RGB fans in the front.
Of course, it is introduced to the market as a medium and high-end chassis. The price is 999 yuan. It is a standard chassis in 1000 yuan. It is more suitable for players who pursue hardware.
Remember that in the masterbox Lite 5 (Rui) chassis, the front panel is made of a PC material with high light transmittance and high wear resistance, and then h500p also uses this efficient and feasible scheme. It is lighter than tempered glass, and the bending process difficulty is greatly reduced, but it has the texture and light transmittance comparable to tempered glass.

Chassis specification
Appearance: rugged armor endowed with spirituality
To tell the truth, when unpacking the h500p, Xiaobian really couldn't think of a sentence to describe it. He just looked at it silently and thought.
Since the side penetration became popular, various styles of chassis have emerged in endlessly: there are exclusive representatives of minimalism and purity to the end, and there is also the wind of boasting with great strange elements, while the h500p is located in the middle of them, with just the right sense of convergence.
The front and top panels of the chassis are fixed by magnetic adsorption (convenient modular design). The two edge parts are a large-area heat dissipation port composed of a "ladder" pattern, and the middle is a side transparent part made of PC material. Thus, a spiritual panel was born.
Just right beauty
Although the appearance of h500p looks domineering, it is late compared with its specification of 542 x242 x544mm (i.e. 71.35l). The size is controlled within the range of large ATX chassis, and the net weight is only 11.3kg, which belongs to standard bias.
In terms of material, tempered glass is the heaviest part except the internal structure. There is also a certain reason why the front and top panels are made of PC material. After all, the side transparent part is the best stand for viewing the overall hardware, and the texture and light transmittance of tempered glass will be amplified.
"Ladder" shaped cooling port
For the side tempered glass, you can notice the details of the black edges around. This design will not affect the viewing of the overall hardware, but also integrate with the box (generally speaking, the integrated design of the tempered glass image and the box is inseparable),
Closed panel on the other side
At the back end of the chassis, the lower power supply is designed. In addition to the horizontal design of 7 PCI slots, two PCI slots in the vertical direction are reserved (for better display of graphics cards). Of course, this can be achieved only by purchasing additional vertical conversion brackets and PCI-E extension cables.
Two vertical PCI slots
Considering the domineering appearance, the foot pads at the bottom four corners of the h500p are also huge, stable and heavy, and the power supply part is nested with a dust net
Details: ideal symmetrical design
If you pay attention to the master series, you can see clearly that the exquisite carving of the I / O panel is also valued by cool and cold. We all know that most chassis I / O in the market is either at the front or at the top. Some manufacturers with special thoughts will choose to start at the side, but for chassis that emphasizes integrity and integration, such as h500p, It's easy to give full play to the spirit of quasi materialization. When you observe from different angles and distances, it can become different associations in your mind.
I / O components include USB 3.0x2, USB 2.0x2, audio / microphone interface, power on / restart key and hard disk lamp. Unfortunately, without type-C interface, it is still a medium and high-end chassis after all. You can see that cool supreme's pursuit of I / O panel is to maintain absolute consistent symmetry. Of course, this pursuit is not limited to I / O panel, and you will find that the whole cabinet is so ideally symmetrical.

The tempered glass side transparent panel adopts a zigzag 90 ° unlocking side plate design, which is common in the master series chassis. It should be noted that try to use tools (such as coins) corresponding to the size of the latch, otherwise there will be potholes soon.
In addition to the heat dissipation fences on both sides of the front panel, openings are also reserved at the upper and lower parts
The transparent layer of PC material on the front panel is made by injection molding process, with exquisite integrated structure
Internal structure: multi wisdom combination
The h500p chassis structure is improved based on the master series. In addition to the freeform modular design (supporting the installation of horizontal and vertical SSD brackets, graphics card steering brackets, etc.), the big brother cosmos c700p also inherits the advantages of aesthetics. The compartment hood is changed to a removable two-stage type: power supply and hard disk cage, And a layer of shielding armor is attached to the corresponding wire management part and the back of the main board, which can further improve the simplicity of wire management.
The mask layer will become the mainstream accessory of the chassis in the future
In terms of specific specifications, the h500p supports the E-ATX motherboard at most. The CPU radiator is limited to 190mm high, which can almost adapt to the extinct flagship air cooling in the market. The length of the graphics card is limited to 412mm, which can take all kinds of high-end graphics cards. The maximum length of the power supply bin is about 310mm when wires are reserved (measured by itself, it is not necessary to remove the bottom hard disk cage)

After removal, you can see the hard disk cage at the bottom, which supports the installation of two 3.5-inch HDDs or 2.5-inch SSDs
In addition, for the optional graphics card steering bracket, after removing the seven PCI blocks and adding a pci-ex16 extension cable, the graphics card can be displayed vertically. Because there are two additional PCI slots at the rear of the chassis, it is theoretically possible to install the graphics card with double vertical steering. However, it should be noted that the spacing between the graphics cards and whether the CPU radiator will cause conflict.
After removing the front panel, you can see the two standard 200mm RGB fans (this fan will also be sold separately in the later stage, and interested players can pay attention to us). If you want to install a water-cooled exhaust, it can support a maximum size of 360mm.
The top can also support two 200mm fans at most, which means that the h500p can install four 200mm fans at most. Xiaobian can't imagine the beautiful picture. Of course, a water-cooling row with a maximum of 360mm can be installed on the top (the support can be removed and separated separately), but it is more appropriate to limit the thickness to less than 55mm.
A maximum of one 140mm fan can be installed at the rear
The back of the chassis has a mask design

Thickness of each plate:
The actual measured armor thickness of line management mask is 0.97mm
The measured lateral penetration thickness of tempered glass is 3.90mm
The measured thickness of SECC side plate is 0.90mm
On the machine: 200mm RGB fan is eye-catching
In fact, for the structure of h500p, whether it is the water cooling leading the times or the air cooling with a little emotion, it can be adapted to the greatest extent. For Xiaobian, the most sensitive detection is whether the two standard 200mm RGB large fans in the front can play a positive role in the air duct in addition to the gorgeous lights. After all, on both sides of the panel The upper and lower areas are designed with openings.
The RGB fan on the h500p is compatible with ASUS, gigabyte, MSI and Huaqing, but it is not equipped with RGB light effect controller (optional), or software operation and adjustment on the motherboard supporting RGB light effect.

The wiring diagram on the back of the chassis shows that with the shield armor, many messy wires can be hidden. Xiaobian's customized wire is not suitable for the h500p chassis. Theoretically, the wire can be circled and tied in the area outside the mask to reduce the length, but this wire is really too long for the h500p. It is recommended that players consider it when purchasing power supply, We can get out of the line management of double "L-type" integration. One thing to be reminded is that when installing the power supply or bottom hard disk, we need to remove the power supply and hard disk bin mask, which can not be achieved directly.

Heat dissipation test: beautiful and refreshing
Test configuration
The CoolerMaster mastercase h500p test platform is equipped with Intel Core i7-7700k processor and cool supreme Blizzard t610p air-cooled radiator. The main board is ASUS IX formula m9f (Intel z270 chip), the memory is g.skill Trident Z dddr4 8gbx2, which forms a dual channel, the hard disk is a 120g SSD of Yingchi armored warrior, and the graphics card is igame GTX 1080 Ti Vulcan x SOC, The fan is an air duct composed of front 200mm x2 and rear 140mm x1, and the test room temperature is approximately 25 ℃.
Test method: we divide the chassis heat dissipation test into three parts: toaster pressure test, game pressure test and standby state test. In the pressure test of the toaster, we run Aida 64 FPU and 3dmark fire strike projects at the same time to make the CPU and graphics card reach the full load state, and the toaster lasts for 1 hour; The game stress test runs 3dmark fire strike stress test for about 10 minutes; The standby test starts and stands for 30 minutes, and records the average temperature of CPU and the maximum temperature of graphics card.
Under extreme conditions, the average operating temperature of CPU under full load is 75 ℃, while the maximum temperature of graphics card is 72 ℃. Under the default configuration of this m9f motherboard, the core i7-7700k can reach 4.5ghz under full load. Compared with the specification of single tower radiator, it is still harsh but acceptable, but thanks to the composition of two 200mm large fans, the overall air inlet volume of the air duct is smooth, The processor and graphics card also have some positive heat dissipation effects.
In the 3dmark fire strike test simulating the game scene, the CPU is always in the half load state, the average temperature is 64 ℃, and the maximum temperature of the graphics card is 71 ℃, which is lower than that of the toaster and closer to most real situations. In standby mode, the average temperature of CPU is 28 ℃, the graphics card is close to zero load, and the maximum temperature when the fan stops is 40 ℃.
In general, due to the ingenious armor type air inlet design and the placement of two 200mm large fans, it can play a positive role in heat dissipation in the air duct.
Summary: give RGB the soul of armor
Throughout the full text, cool Supreme mastercase h500p brings together the wisdom of brand concept and models.
First of all, the appearance focus focuses on two PC panels (with strong light transmittance and high wear resistance), which skillfully form a landscape similar to the armor but actually the heat sink. In particular, I appreciate the two 200mm RGB fans in front. It is indeed a way to add color and fragrance to those consumers who love light pollution, and successfully realize the appeal of both fish (appearance) and bear paw (heat dissipation).
Going deep into the outside, it not only continues the modular structure of the master series, with comprehensive hardware compatibility and expansibility coverage, but also makes it easy for players to organize lines while emphasizing the texture of the armor mask.
The price of mastercase h500p chassis is 999 yuan. If you have a good hardware budget (medium and high-end platforms above), this valiant armor chassis must be a good choice for thousands of yuan., Read the full text“
