Introduction

We would like to thank Cooler Master for supplying the review sample.


It has been a while since the last time I reviewed something from Cooler Master. This brand is 30 years old, and as such, has vast experience in most IT market segments, from PSUs, to chassis and PC peripherals. When something other than a gaming or office chair falls into my hands, I get excited because there are many different aspects to examine and share with you. I immediately agreed when CM's cooperating PR agency suggested sending me a gaming desk to review.

Today's review subject is a compact gaming desk, the GD120 ARGB, ideal for confined spaces. With a $380 price tag, many of you will wonder if it is worth spending so much on a 120 mm desk. You had better read the rest of the review to find out, because this is not an ordinary desk.

Packaging

Even though it had to pass from various carriers till it reached my hands, the desk's packaging was adequate, keeping it safe and unharmed from all it's troubles. The desk weighs quite a bit; thus, dragging it around is not advised, as you may damage parts within. Many pieces of product information are spread over the packaging, while an illustration depicts the internal product.
