CM Storm Scout 2 Case Review
Conclusions
Contents
The CM Storm Scout 2 follows the same tradition as previous CM Storm mid-tower cases: good look, sturdy construction, and excellent pricing. In order to keep its price down, the manufacturer added only one fan, even though the product supports a total of eight, and didn’t include an air filter for the bottom and left fans. So, don’t forget to add at least a pair of 120 mm fans when you order this case.
