Cooler Master HAF 922
Today we are looking at the newest addition to the Cooler Master line up, the HAF 922. The HAF 922 is the midtower sibling of the HAF 932 full tower. The HAF 932 has done Cooler Master well and they hope the HAF 922 will do the same. Now the HAF or High Air Flow chassis design of the HAF 932 allows for up to three (yes three) 200mm fans, which can, in turn, be any configuration of 120mm or 140mm fans. This combined with the open mesh front, top and bottom vents and open layout should make getting fresh air though this case easy. Let's take a look at the features and specifications of the HAF 922.
