I 3 This Case!
03-07-2008
Reviewer: Drujon (33)
I''ve been through numerous cases in my day, more than I can count on one hand, and this is so far my favorite case, *despite* the following problems I''ve run into:
Cable management by-way of the side panel can be a hassle... you won''t be able to fit too many big cable connectors through otherwise the side panel will pop off to no avail...
Had an issue fitting in my physx card with a watercooling block, had to remove the rivets from the bottom of the case that held the lifter on the PSU and had to redrill holes to make space for the water cooling block below the bottom expansion slot.
I''ve read complaints online about the air flow around the hard drive bays but what most people don''t seem to realise is that the bottom fan enclosure can be mounted directly above the HDD''s (although this does direct the air flow to the front of the case instead of back...)
The positioning of the power/hdd led''s requires longer lead cables (32 inches) so if you plan on swapping them out for an alternate color then plan ahead.
The air output from the top-rearish area is a bit restricted and as a result your fans will wear out with time so keep an eye on that.
FrozenCPU sells a window kit for this case, in case you didn''t already know.
I bought this right before the Cosmos S was announced, I purchased this case from nozamA so I could get $4 one-day shipping thru Prime, although I do recommend FrozenCPU I just am a cheap skate =D.
Again this is my favorite case to date, I recommend it, so long as you are aware of the issues I mentioned above.
Great case, one problem

This is a solid case with lots of good features. However it gets penalized a point because of the the horizontal mounting bar for the side panel. Although it gives easy, tooless entry, the bar can be a problem accessing your motherboard mounting screws or power connectors. Much worse with a large CPU cooler, better with smaller hands.
Cooler Master Cosmos the Best

I am new to building my own PCs, but my experience with the Cosmos 1000 insures that I will continue to build my own boxes. Cosmos is very high quality and well thought out. Easy to work on. Box is very cool using just air. Box is very quiet - like a church mouse! FrozenCpu delivery is fast, packaging good. I also ordered a water cooler. Everything arrived nice, except the Koolance, which was shipped from the West Coast.
A Revolutionary Case

This new Cooler master combines every "5 star" feature from previous cases like Themaltake and Lian Li and puts it into one Complete Lightweight Case. The case is incredible and feels like a professional case, with the tooless side doors and insulated interior. It includes Five Fans and a Toolkit with zip ties and tools.
Overall 5 Stars,
From Stefan Yasin,
