Verily, the RC-690 from the House cooler master can not complain about lack of demand. Rather, the MIDI-Tower is one of the most popular cases at all and still convinced with its excellent ventilation concept, its practical construction and its noble design. But we know, the better is the enemy of the good and so II (RC-692) must be different of its changing of the guard in the form of the retreaded CM 690 690.

This can do what his predecessor also dominated, offers numerous detail improvements: A still more noble design with black painted Interior, discreet size growth for more space in the Interior, improved ventilation system for up to ten fan, dust filters, unmountable lighting, external SATA HDD dock, internal 2.5 - and 1, 8-inch slots, Removable HDD slots for a flexible interior design, 7 + 1 PCI slots, cable management, and a CPU backplate cutout.

The 690 II RC-692 is available in two advanced versions. In contrast to the previous KKN2 this KKN5 no eSATA in the I/O-panel more exhibit, but instead twice USB 3.0 (internal connection) and two USB 2.0. In addition, the CPU recess at the Mainboardtray was enlarged to facilitate the dismantling of the backplate in coolers. While here, no VGA support is more in the scope of delivery, the cable management holes with rubber protection are provided.

The relationship to the original 690 is outwardly not denying. Both have a similar design with a large mesh Assembly from the front of the lid. The wire is this framed silver stripes and rounded sides, resulting in a very elegant look. In contrast to the old 690 also the lower front and the rear lid is rounded, next to the upper edge of the front which also enlivens the noble lines.

All in all can the facelift deemed to be very successful. The dimensions of the cooler master RC-692 has increased also something - especially in the height - what is visible only in direct comparison. The control panel is now moved onto the lid, where it is better accessible together with the I/O-Panel. It sits directly behind a speciality of this advanced version - a SATA HDD dock. This allows the direct insertion of a corresponding drive which the CM 690 II is hot-swap capable.

Where we are just at the drives: of the four external 5, 25-inch slots one can be used for 3.5-inch. The internal drive bays are even more flexible. In addition to 3, with 5-inch HDDs an adapter 2.5 - and 1.8 inch drive are installed. All drives are this convenient without building tool.

Also the four lower can be expanded from the existing six slots. Thus to free space inside the front - can be used for example for Waku components a dual radiator (if compatible) or a pump.

Also the institution of mainboard has been revised. This has now many cut-outs, which simplifies the installation of a CPU backplate and enabling a clean cabling. In addition to the normal PCI slots on the back, an additional plate is available side to provide, for example, other connections from the motherboard, without interfering with the usual slots.

The PSU thermally conveniently sits at the bottom of the case and has filtered access. Elegant feet rubber thereby ensure the necessary ground clearance, but at the same time offer a vibration decoupling.

The cooling ensures factory of three fans. Although even the 690 had the same number, now, two of them have the larger 140 mm size. These fans provide a throughput of air compared to the 120 colleagues. They thus provide passage on front and lid and complemented by a 120 at the back.

The ventilation options have also risen. Now up to ten fan can be - applied two 140er or 120 in the left side panel, an additional 140er or 120 in the lid, two 120 soil born, a 120 on the HDD tray and a flat 80 behind the CPU.

Thus, the cooler master 692 for gamers, hardware enthusiasts and overclocker is still an excellent basis. Additionally, the front with filters is equipped to make sure that together with the sucked air dust enters the enclosure. The front fan is blue illuminated as in its predecessor, the LEDs can be disabled now separately.

Note: Graphics cards can be up to a maximum length of 304 mm, power supplies up to 190 mm built.

** The front of two floor fan slots is obstructed in the default delivery condition of the lower part of the HDD enclosure. The slot can be used only where the lower four hard drive bays waived and this part is expanded. Beyond that, however, this advantage that in addition a 240 dual radiator takes place, space-saving way to accommodate a water cooling.
