Its King Kong sized proportions can accommodate up to nine 5.25-inch and four 3.5-inch drives, more than sufficient for even the most hardcore of enthusiasts.

Editors Choice

| it-review.net : January 2007 |

Quotation:
When we consider the overall impression, it can’t be without comparing the 830 with the first Stacker. On the plus side, there are some new features, primarily top and side fan positions, simpler BTX transformation and the design in general. Worthy mentions are the front and top USB connectors, and an almost screwless design. The presence of a door will not be either a plus or a minus. On the minus side, there is no longer a second PSU place, and without a door the new model looks incomplete. Even with these negative remarks, it still is one of the best cases in the world. Too bad that it’s also one of the most expensive. But whatever you might think about this awesome case, it's a definitive Editor's Choice material. Especially after having quite some time to play around with it. |

Coolermaster strike again, with a product worthy of the highest awards, which makes no compromises when it comes to price-performance issues, and that will doubtless prove itself as a performance king of the current generation of high-end cases. We recommend the CMStacker 830 to any user in the market for a high end case that��ll make you proud of your investment: a Techconnect Gold award, if we ever saw one. Now, our experiments to get it to transform into a Decepticon can continue. |

Quotation:
This is a cool new case from Coolermaster, with its new features that makes it really easy to use and the huge space it offers. I now understand why the Stacker series are so popular. I have not seen a case that offers more space and watercooling possibilites. I don't particularly like the pre modded cases but I have to admit though that I really like the design of this, they have been able to combine funcitonality and design very well. There will soon be another article about this case as it's included in a mod so stay tuned for that also. This was the first case that I have actually looked at the manual for as it holds so many features. This must be the modders, overclockers, and watercoolers dream case. Although I have not been able to find a price but around 200$ is my quess when it comes out on the market. We want to give this case 5 out of 5 and our editors choice award for a superb case that combines looks and functions very well in every aspect for the computer. |

90 Point

Quotation:
CoolerMaster Stacker 830 is going to a halt at 90 point for a cabinet which is very unique. CoolerMaster has created a big and powerful cabinet with the features seen from the cabinets to a server. But in a way you will never discover this. The cabinet has small faults compared to the earlier model, but is generally a big and well designed cabinet, perfect for casemodding. The price at 2000 KR is perfect, because the cabinet is very different in comparison to the rest of the marked. |

Okay, excuse us while we wank lyrical here. The CoolerMaster CMStacker 830 is perhaps the single best case we've ever used. Star Trek styled construction and all. Learning from the previous stacker's few mistakes, this baby's internals are now entirely aluminium in construction - well, except for the removable 3.5" drive tray, which for some reason is still constructed from the banished steel of yore, and can carry only four drives compared to Lian-Li's six. This is, however, offset by being able to mount it anywhere within the 5.25" bays at the front. |

Coolermaster hat mit dem neuen Stacker ein wirklich gutes Gehäuse auf den Markt gebracht.
Das Gehäuse ist Super verarbeitet und ist durch den Einsatz von Gebürstetem Aluminium sehr Edel.
Es ist für die Zukunft ausgerichtet, sprich es kann auf BTX umgebaut werden.
Das Design ist wie immer Geschmackssache, aber wie wir finden hat das Gehäuse mal eine etwas andere Form bekommen und ist dadurch keineswegs Langweilig.
Es gibt ausreichend Kühlmöglichkeiten und das Platzangebot ist Riesig.
Nach Aktuellen Informationen soll der Coolermaster Stacker 830: 289,00 € kosten, das wäre dann wohl der größte Wehrmutstropfen.
Auch bei der Beleuchtung hatte Coolermaster bei dem Preis etwas großzügiger sein können, so hätten Sie z.b. das Lochbleche in der Front, mit LED`s bestücken können, diese suchten wir aber vergebens. |

Quotation:
The new Stacker 830 takes the crown. Other features that have undergone an overhaul for the better include a more user-friendly design for the faceplates of the drive bays. Instead of having to pry loose the faceplates in the original Stacker with a screwdriver, the new design makes it so much easier, though we had some chapped fingers due to the tight side openings. Nevertheless, this is one feature that we hope to find on other casings too. |

Quotation:
Eines ist klar. Der Coolermaster Stacker 830 ist ein High-End Tower, der in der Liga ganz oben mit dabei ist. Das Design ist modern, sieht verdammt gut aus und die Materialwahl unterstreicht den gehobenen Anspruch. Verarbeitung und die vorhandenen K?hlungsm?glichkeiten sind mit das Beste, was man im Moment f?r sein Geld bekommen kann. Der gr??te Wehrmutstropfen ist wohl der Preis von ca. 310,00 Euro, den Coolermaster mit der Dreingabe von weiteren ein bis zwei L?ftern noch etwas nach unten korrigieren k?nnte. Dadurch verfehlt man nur knapp den beliebten Gold-Award! Immerhin kann das Geh?use in wenigen Handgriffen auf BTX umgebaut werden. |

Quotation:
The Stacker 830 fulfills a lot of requirements, and is slick looking to boot. Rarely has a company given users the opportunity to go nuts over fans right out of the box - as far as this reviewer is concerned, nine 120 mm fan bays is nuts. However, Coolermaster did many things right, with a fairly easy BTX conversion process, the actual process of providing-the-tools-for-BTX-without-buying-a-kit, the top and front USB ports and the removable motherboard tray, to name a few things. |

Selection Product 2006

| Coolermaster n’a pas raté son coup. Son nouveau boîtier haut de gamme, le Stacker 830, reprend et améliore tous les avantages du premier Stacker, en corrigeant ses points les plus rebutants. D’un design complètement nouveau, il s’éloigne des standards de sobriété actuels pour proposer une ligne musclée, imposante et agressive, mais non extravagante pour autant (à l’inverse de l’Ammo 533 donc). Un joli renouveau après les Wavemaster, tout en conservant le châssis quasi-entièrement en aluminium. |
