Conclusion and Verdict
In, conclusion the MasterBox 5 is an affordable Mid-Tower that has plenty of options when it comes to your build. The case seems to be structurally solid while not weighing a whole lot. You find the bells and whistles with the MasterBox 5 but you will find yourself using a case that has a ton of room inside with a handful of mounting options for your hardware.
The market for cases is huge and you will find yourself getting lost looking at all the available options. One of the biggest factors I believe can be the price. I always sort my options by price low to high. This case will be close to the top of that list and will offer more real estate for you dollar than most other chassis in a the similar price range.

Pros:
- Price
- Mounting Options
- Included Fans
- Cable Management
- Window
Cons:
- Have to install stand offs for motherboard. (I managed to not strip any this go around!)
Final Thoughts:
The MasterBox 5 is super affordable with tons of room on the inside. Your imagination and tools are really the limitations to this case. If you can dream it you can make it. If you are in the market for a case that wont break the bank while offer a truck load of hardware mounting options look no further because the MasterBox 5 will meet those demands!
