CM Storm Scout II Chassis Review

Rating: 8.0.

CM Storm have been updating some of their products this year and today is the turn of the CM Storm Scout model, which was first launched several years ago.

On paper, the CM Storm Scout II looks to be a vast improvement on its predecessor, as it features USB 3.0, improved carrying handles and much more. For a mid-tower chassis it can also fit a whopping 9 x 120mm fans, which should give some serious cooling performance although only a single fan is included in the box.
