Inside M59
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

Both panels are fastened to the case using thumbscrews, which is excellent. On Figure 7 we have an overall look from inside M59. The first thing that caught our attention was the presence of several big holes on the motherboard tray. The biggest one is used for having access to the CPU cooler backplate, allowing you to replace your CPU cooler with a more power model without the need of removing the motherboard from the chassis. The smaller ones are used for routing cables behind the tray. These holes are also usually only found on high-end products.

Daughter boards are fastened to the case using regular screws and we wouldn’t expect anything different on a case from this price range, even though it would be nice seeing at least thumbscrews here.

As already mentioned, according to the manufacturer you can install radiators from certain water cooling solutions on the holes available on the top panel.
