Za 470 kuna, koliko košta Centurion 534 lite u trenutku objave ovog članka, dobijete prilično pristojan dom za svoje komponente. Cooler Master s ovim modelom nije eksperimentirao, sve je rađeno po standardnim specifikacijama i uklopljeno u decentan dizajn koji je ipak dovoljno upečatljiv da već na prvi pogled jasno korisniku daje do znanja da se radi o dobrom i kvalitetnom kućištu. Nema govora o škripanju, nepreciznosti prilikom izrade ili sličnih boljki jeftinijih kućišta, sve je na svom mjestu i pruža prilično fer omjer uloženog i dobivenog. Jedan 120-milimetarski ventilator je jedina dodatna oprema, no s obzirom da ga mnoga kućišta slične cijene ne nude, kod Centuriona je to veliki plus, pogotovo ako uzmemo u obzir i da je ventilator prilično tih. Zamjerke idu na način montaže diskova i dodatnih kartica, no na samu kvalitetu izvedbe nemamo primjedbi. Još jedan nedostatak je izostanak Firewire konektora na maski kućišta, no to dakako vrijedi samo ako ovak priključak zaista trebate. Ipak, obzirom na sve ostale kvalitete koje ovo kućište nudi, odličan dizajn i fer cijenu, ove manje zamjerke lako se mogu zanemariti.

Conclusion

For 470 kunas (about 65€ including VAT), which retail price of CM’s Centurion 534 lite PC case at the time of publishing of this article, you can get pretty nice new "home" for your computer components. Cooler Master did not experiment much – Centurion 534 lite is a pretty straightfoward chassis with decent, yet distinct design and excellent quality of build. We haven’t encountered any creaky sounds or imperfections resulting from poor manufacturing process, problems which are often present on cheaper computer cases. Additional equipment consists of one 120mm fan, which at first glance seems pretty shabby but considering the fact that many other cases with similar price offer no fans at all, even one (pretty silent) fan makes a big difference.

Of course, there are also some downsides. We didn’t like mechanism for mouting hard disks and expansion cards. It is pretty well built but plastic has a tendecy of breaking more often then metal. Other minor downside of Centurion 534 is lack of Firewire connector on the front side of the chassis. Of course, this is a problem only if you have need for Firewire connectors in the first place. Considering the fact that problems we mentioned for many users might not be problems at all, we can safely say that Cooler Master Centurion 534 lite is a great mid-priced PC case with excellent quality of build, attractive design and a fair price.
