Just before Christmas 2024, CoolerMaster revealed its innovative MasterFrame case series. Weeks later, TechPowerUp inspected pre-launch interlocking aluminium panel-equipped specimens at CES. So far, Cooler Master's marketing material has emphasized the importance of customization. At this week's Computex trade show, the manufacturer has presented various MasterFrame 600 configurations—enabled by non-standard GPU mounting techniques, and multiple front panel options.

Two "Vertical GPU Mode" demonstration units aptly showcased interesting graphics card placements. Cooler Master seems intent on presenting its custom VGA cooler across multiple tables and every turn—their MasterFrame 600 builds were togged up with custom GeForce RTX 5080 graphics cards. A "Reverse Mode" example showed off another non-traditional internal layout.




This morning, Cooler Master discussed its FreeForm 2.0 initiative. This newer effort is advertised as "giving users more freedom to customize and personalize their builds." The latest MasterFrame entrants align directly with this philosophy. A section of Cooler Master's Computex booth was lined with a historic banner, with the freshest offerings marketed as launchpads for a modular PC platform.



Wood and stone effect front panels were on prominent display. A few of these options were already attached to working systems (nearby).
