Cooler Master HAF Stacker 935 – A New Beginning For Computer Cases
I think we have all thought at one time or another that if we could just build a case that we wanted it would be so cool. Or not having to cram in all your hardware, water cooling setup, hard drives and all the wires and cables that go with it. Cooler Master must have been thinking the same thing and came up with a totally new idea for the computer case market. The Cooler Master HAF Stacker 935 is like nothing you have every seen before.

First Look
From a distance the shipping box looks quite normal until you get closer to it. The box stands almost 34 inches tall which is about the same height of a four year old child. So what in the world could be inside this box to cause it to be so huge.
Removing the contents from the box we can see this in not normal as there are three Styrofoam sections. Removing the top Styrofoam section shows us the case… or does it?
Continuing to the next section of the Styrofoam and removing the protective cover off we see, uh well another case. Hmm… so maybe there is something to the Stacker name.
Inside a box that is wire tied to the inside of the case is the stuff shown. What you see are some black tie wraps to secure your cables, a hand full of different type of screws and motherboard stand offs, two filler plates, power supply screws and a SATA extension cable with three SATA connectors on it.
Also found was a piece of paper that fills in the blanks as to what we kind of already seen with the parts. There are two separate sections that make up the Cooler Master HAF Stacker 935 case.
Let’s say we have a home server or HTPC in the 915R and same gaming configurafion in main unit.
I want to turn on only the upper part. Where is the turn on switch?!
Great question! From what I understand Cooler Master will adding kits to their store that you can get separate switches for the 915 sections or have were both systems can be turned on and off with one button.
So what do you think about this modular case idea? Do you like it?
This looks very cool!
I would love a stack of 4 915 (from top to bottom):
-Wife’s PC
-My PC
-Home Server
-Drive Case for the Server
It will be nice…
I believe I spotted an error:
“If you would like to purchase the lower section that has the power supply located in the front the HAF-915F-KKN1 has a MSRP of $69.99.”
Shouldn’t that be the upper section?
The 935 reviewed is the case and top section and is sold as one unit. The lower section is sold separately and it does have the power supply located in the front. If you buy the lower section you can now add it to the 935 for a three level PC or you can take the two smaller sections, put them together and make a smaller case. Or like you said you can buy a couple of the modular sections and stack them. I saw them online now for about $60 each.
Why do you assume the Cooler Master employee that came up with the idea is a “he”?
