Packaging
Cooler Master ships its N-Series cases in a very strong white corrugated box with hand holds on both sides. The outer corrugated box came in quite dusty from the shipping but in good shape considering all the places that this N-600 has been in its short lifespan. The box is very bright and colorful and the front has a big picture of the case and the name of the N600 as well as some special Features of the case.
The back of the white Cooler Master box goes into almost every detail you will need to know about this particular case. It leaves nothing to the imagination and is a great for brick and mortar store item since everything you need to know about the case is right there for the customer to read and even in different languages.
Cocooned inside the strong thick Styrofoam lining and the weather resistant plastic the case is safely kept away from the average shock and natural elements that it may encounter during shipping.
The plastic see through covering is to keep the salt air, dust and even humidity from the entering into the case through the hand hold openings on the side of the box during shipping. The plastic is one of the most important parts of the shipping process as it insures a great customer experience when the N600 is opened up the case and inspected for the first time. The plastic is very strong and a good medium mil rating. However, we will have to take off a small point for not closing the bag up as ours was not wrapped tight or taped shut.
Once the Plastic cover slipped off you finally get to the case that has even more self sticking plastic around the piano finish frame of the front panel edging and on both the inside and outside of the Tinted window of the side panel.
There are black standard knurled black thumb screws holding the side panels of the case in place and you may need a Phillips head screwdriver to get them loosened for the first time as they are tightened hard from the Factory for shipment. But once removed and the side panels taken away, you find the small plain brown box that contains all the hardware that you will need to use for building in Cooler Master N600. The small brown box is strategically located between the SSD mounting brackets inside the case.
The parts and hardware that come inside the box includes tool-less mechanical drive insert slides that make adding and removing a drive a breeze. There are also many different screws for Fans and motherboard standoffs as well as other special parts that you may need like a locking device a four pin motherboard beep code speaker and plastic self locking wire tie straps and power supply screws.
Hardware that is already installed on the N-600 Mid Tower Case are the seven solid black blank covers tightened down by the same black knurled thumb screws used the secure both the side panels.
As we take a final look at the unpacked, un-bagged, and uncovered look at the Cooler Master N-600 we find the classic styling and the very upscale look of this very reasonably priced case. It is a mixture of many different design concepts and styling cues and the excellent engineering and looks all work together for an elegant but subtle case that could fit many different interior home or office decors.
