Case modding is something that for most enthusiasts, they either dabble in on a very minor scale, or merely admire from a distance as those with more practical know how create everything from PCs built into desks, to beautifully laid our water cooling loops and lighting set ups. Cooler Master …

When Cooler Master first got the idea to use noise-reduction material inside a chassis, more than 7 years ago, it unfortunately went with the name Sileo. Changing the brand to Silencio was a smart move and now, in 2015, we have a new range of quiet chassis under the KitGuru studio …

Getting someone to say “I love you” – even if they don't necessarily mean it – is a pretty decent marketing play. One that Cooler Master had going in full effect up at Multiplay's Insomnia i53 LAN gaming event at the massive Ricoh Arena in Coventry over the weekend. KitGuru …
