In James own words:
'I'm one of those people who just loves to build things, whether it’s a new engine for one of my cars, an RC model, a new studio or an extension on the house, I just love to get stuck in so my favourite part of PC ownership is the initial system build. Naturally, when I heard that Cooler Master had a new PC case that comes flat pack and the users build it themselves I couldn’t wait to take a look. In this review, I get my hands on the new Cooler Master QUBE 500 Flat Pack PC case, piece it all together and find out just how good it is.'
