The thing that stands out most about this case is the ease with which all components went into it. I can’t remember any build before this where there was not at least one screw I had a hard time getting to, and that just never happened here. There is plenty of room to work and a full size ATX drops in with nothing in the way. Installing and changing drives is effortless.

The overall weight of the case is reasonably low, as I was transporting my computer around a lot during the testing phase and it was rather manageable. The front mounted USB and headphone/microphone ports have come in quite handy. Over all, the Gladiator 600 is a great case.

What we have here is an inexpensive case with potential.  Good for a very basic build, but with the addition of a couple more fans can be something to be proud of.  Only having the two fans really affected my temps.  Building this case out was relatively painless.  I would recommend that you stay away from large CPU coolers. My Cooler Master Hyper N620 just barely cleared the top fan.  Also included are two shouldered motherboard standoffs to properly line up the motherboard.  Make sure to put these in a position where you can easily pull the motherboard loose if you need to.  I didn't and nearly didn't get the motherboard back out.

The Cooler Master Gladiator 600 is priced right for what you get. It offers excellent airflow options, strong construction, convenient features, and looks great. Cable management is easy, but could use the extra rear exhaust fan which is optional for you to add. As pointed out in the video review PCWizKid loves the tool-less design for the drive bays and the addition of dust filters. The case is capable of fitting the large current-generation video cards less than 10 inches (so don't expect the HD5870 to fit) but anything else smaller fits great! the overall look of the case is sleek and clean and installing components such as the motherboard and CPU Cooler was easy. The Gladiator 600 is a well rounded mid tower case that for less than $70 US is definitely a PCWizKid recommended product for those looking for a solid mainstream desktop with terrific support and flexibility.

The Gladiator 600 provides the computer manufacturer Coolermaster a cheap midi-tower case that looks smart and can readily mutate to "Kuhlmonster. Die Ausstattung ist dabei, wie fur diese Preisklasse ublich, Standard. The equipment is, as usual for this price class, standard. So findet man neben einem einfachen schraubenlosen - Montagesystem fur Laufwerke, Festplatten und Steckkarten auch zwei vorinstallierte Lufter. Thus we find in addition to a simple screwless - Mounting system for disk drives, hard drives and expansion cards, two pre-installed fan. Bis auf die Netzteilmontage, bei der das Netzteil mit Lufter nach unten oder oben montiert werden kann, sucht man weitere Innovationen vergebens.

We think this is a terrific product for the user that is on a budget and is looking for a good mid-tower case. Costing only USD 50 at Newegg.com, this product is a no-brainer. We could complain that it doesn’t come with a rear fan, but at USD 50 this is hardly a “defect”. If you buy this case we highly suggest you to buy and install the rear fan, which should be mounted in exhaustion mode, i.e. blowing air from inside the case to the outside.

At this price, you really can’t go wrong with the Gladiator 600; it has sleek aesthetics, a roomy interior, smart layout, good cable management, and solid build quality.  It may not share the prestige of its larger Cooler Master siblings, but it gets the job done very nicely for novice builders and those on a tighter budget.

Weighing in at 21lbs empty it is on the hefty side so once it is place, I would leave it there. In the end, I do recommend this case due to the value it holds, and at the price point it sits at doesn't get much better, making the case a good choice for many new comers to the world of the custom built PC.

There are a few downsides to this case, including some cramped room and air flow issues. But such is the nature of the beast; you’ll probably find yourself upgrading from a mid tower if you want more room. There are some fragile pieces, and the finish likes to hold prints, but those are fairly small, manageable problems. The bottom line is Cooler Master has done a good job of improving cooling complaints from previous models and providing several options to increase air flow. The I/O panel is a great addition, especially when it comes to stepping up to the recent external drive craze. The Gladiator is a well-proportioned, light case thats great for traveling, and most importantly, does its job. The simplicity of its design leaves for either a nice, sleek look or the endless possibilities of your own imagination.

For the $70 price tag, the Cooler Master Gladiator 600 is an exceptional bargain. It offers good airflow, sturdy construction, convenient features, and looks great.

The case is capable of fitting the large current-generation video cards with about a half inch of room or so to spare. I was very impressed with the construction of this case. It is very sturdy and withstood my weight standing on it without flexing at all. I love the look of it, and enjoyed going in depth and putting it to the limit. Overall, those looking for a mid tower case with an affordable price tag should definitely consider the Gladiator 600 by Cooler Master.

Overall the Cooler Master Gladiator is a great case. It has plenty of cooling options and is surely easy to install. Cooler Master provides enough extra benefits for this case that it makes it worthwhile. The best part is it's affordable; it can be found online for around $60. I don't really think there's anything wrong with this case other than the fact that the case supports five fans and only two are provided. It's certainly a great deal for the price. ThinkComputers awards the Cooler Master Gladiator 600 a 9 out of 10 score and our Good Value Award.

Are you on a budget? Are you looking to upgrade your box? Then you are in the right place. The Coolermaster Gladiator 600 is the ideal solution for you. The Gladiator 600 offers all kinds of features that you will not find in a case that can be found for under $70. The classy good looks is just a plus. Honestly, even if you can fork out a few more bucks for a case I would still have this case a look. For one the looks and second the cooling possiblities. The included fans are huge and blows air in just the right angles. If for some reason you need more than that, there are locations for four more fans. You just can't do wrong with this baby.

The case has rounded edges, meaning you won't cut your hand when operating on the system, adequate cooling and great cable management. There is room for four 140mm fans and a 120mm fan or alternatively up to five 120mm fans. The tool-less drive installation, and the FP I/O is a great addition to a good case. Another big plus is the hole in the CPU area that allows you to change out the CPU and CPU cooler without removing the motherboard from the case.
