Some time ago Cooler Master put out the Sniper case which performed really well, even when loaded to the nines with as much gear as you could possibly want in one system. With the recent release of the Cooler Master Sniper Black Edition, not much has changed. It still has that great military theme, smooth lines and an aggressive physique that is very appealing to most gamers.

With 2009 coming to an end it is encouraging to see that Cooler master is making some great cases even better, with a few small additions. Design-wise the Sniper was a winner from the starting line. With three massive 230mm intake and exhaust fans this case has created its own weather system in a box, yet easily controlled from a rheostat at the top of the case.

We should dive in and see what the differences between the original Sniper and the Black Edition are. I really doubt we will see any performance change from the Black Edition compared to the original, but to find out for sure keep on reading!
