Xigmatek Master X II Pro Mid Tower Gaming Case - Black / Supports Motherboards up to E-ATX / 4 x Pre-Installed Fans Included / EN44304 / EN44304

The Xigmatek Master X II Pro is a mid tower gaming case in black with space for a full set of components and support for E-ATX motherboards. Its airflow design keeps the system cool through demanding sessions, and RGB lighting support lets you set the look of the interior. It is a straightforward chassis for a tidy, well-cooled build.

The Master X II Pro is built with superior airflow capability, moving air through the chassis so the system holds its temperature during demanding gaming sessions rather than only at idle. Good ventilation is what protects sustained clock speeds, because a component that overheats will pull back its own performance long before anything fails.

The chassis supports E-ATX motherboards, so a wide board with additional expansion slots and heavier power delivery fits without modification. Smaller standards mount in the same tray, which means the case suits both a large multi-GPU-capable platform and a more conventional ATX build using the same set of standoffs.

The top takes three 120 mm or three 140 mm fans and the front takes the same three 120 mm or three 140 mm arrangement. The motherboard panel adds two 120 mm fans on EATX boards up to 280 mm wide, and the rear takes one 120 mm fan. That covers intake, exhaust and direct component cooling.

Liquid cooling is supported with a 360 radiator at the front, a 360 radiator at the top and a 120 at the rear. Two 360 positions mean a large all-in-one cooler for the CPU can sit at the front while the top stays free for exhaust, instead of the two competing for the same mounting rail.

The power supply position accepts units up to 220 mm long, which covers full-size ATX supplies including higher-wattage models with longer casings. The extra depth also leaves room behind the unit for the cable bundle, so the leads are not forced into a sharp bend as soon as they exit the PSU.

There is 165 mm of clearance for the CPU cooler, enough for a full-height tower air cooler rather than a low-profile heatsink only. Compare that number against your cooler's height before buying, because clearance decides whether the side panel closes once the heatsink and its fan are mounted on the socket.

Graphics card clearance is 410 mm with no fan fitted on the motherboard panel, dropping to 280 mm once a fan is installed there. That is a real trade-off to plan in advance: a long triple-fan card and motherboard-panel intake fans cannot both occupy the same space, so decide which one your build needs more.

The bottom HDD cage holds one 3.5-inch drive, and the top cage holds a 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch combo position. Splitting the cages across two locations keeps a bulk mechanical archive away from the airflow path at the front, and lets you populate only the position you actually need.

A dedicated SSD bracket carries two 2.5-inch drives, separate from the hard drive cages. Keeping solid state drives on their own bracket means a boot SSD and a games SSD can both mount without touching the mechanical storage layout, and the drives sit clear of the front intake path.

The top mounted I/O cluster carries a power button, a reset button, one USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 ports and an HD audio connector. Sitting the ports on top keeps a headset and a pair of peripherals within easy reach when the case is on the floor rather than up on the desk.
