Cosmos Case Awesome!.......2007-12-18
This case is a great case. Excellent cooling and space along with layout. Easy to stucture cables and for a clean layout. I would buy a Cooler Master
Beatiful case but too weak airflow for those ppl like to Overclocking their component.......2007-12-10
Pro: Organized case, less bulky, more room, nice feature, pretty design, solid, look little bit classic, best for anyone have glass furniture and very tall. Support all TEC, Water Cooling, even the biggest CPU cooler, Cooler Master Germin 2. Very quiet with it case fan, and best for any those music maker that need a very good case, help to keep your computer component clean also.
Con: case fan is give really a weak a flow. 41CFM for each only, intake fan is so suk that it just can blow a piece of paper in the air for short time, and in very short distance. I have to put a super good case fan for intake in order keep my system cool.
High quality, spaceous and quiet. A beautiful furniture addition!.......2007-11-27
I wasn't looking for a new case when one of Amazon's competitors, via a marketing email, brought the Cooler Master Cosmos to my attention. Then again, I've been looking all my life for a case as beautiful, spacious and quiet as this one.
All the research I did online, and there are many places that have the specifications, beginning with Cooler Master's own web site, and quite a few with reviews, convinced me the price was worthwhile for what will likely be my last computer case. By the way, Amazon had the best price.
I placed my order late on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, taking advantage of free shipping, and was pleasantly surprised and very pleased when it arrived on Wednesday (before the holiday)!
The manufacturer's box comes with an outer shipping sleeve, which I'm amazed arrived together with the box, since there was nothing holding it in place. Packing is adequate, and there was no damage beyond some to the cardboard sleeve.
Optimum use is made of internal spaces to pack (read hide from view) the smaller parts, and it took me a while to locate everything mentioned in the parts list.
How fortunate that my company dismissed us early on Wednesday, because I could not wait to get this beauty home.
The case comes with four 120mm (4.72") fans installed. One in the base, one at the rear opposite the CPU fan, and two in the top. There is an ample hardware package in the form of an accessory carrying case (advertised as a freebie) containing a screwdriver key ring, cable ties, tie mounts, motherboard stand-offs, and all the screws for motherboard and peripherals you could need. Not that you need too many for peripherals, as I mention later. Not sure either, where to keep the accessory carrying case.
The case is bigger than you'd expect for a computer case. Though at 23.5" it is equal to the full tower it is replacing, it is both substantially wider (at 10.5"), and deeper (longer?) (at 24.7") than the tower case. The bottom rails provide ample lateral support and nicely complement the two upper rails/handles which make moving the case much easier than most. They are also very convenient when turning the case onto its side to work on the innards.
The finish is a beautiful combination of machined aluminum and black acrylic, with a black mesh front panel behind the reversible front door. The side panels are the full size of the case. They release simply by lifting the appropriate lever on the back, and then lift up and outwards to disengage the bottom lip from the base.
Inside, there is more space than you'll know what to do with. For me, removing memory no longer entails first removing a disk drive! In fact, my full ATX motherboard now has a full six inches clear between it and the hard drives.
Regarding the hard drives; one reason for the increased width, is to accommodate mounting the internal hard drives from side-to-side in the case, using HDD racks that are each secured by one finger-turnable screw. There are six such racks. Drives mount on edge, using four special screws (provided) that go through grommets in the rack to attach the drive.
The case accommodates either 5 x 5.25" exposed drives, or allows one 5.25" bay to be used to install a 3.5" drive. The mounting bracket and front bezel is provided for the 3.5: drive. However, Cooler Master "strongly recommends" the lowest exposed bay (5.25") not be used for installing any device that is bigger than 3.5" "to guarantee optimal thermal performance for HDDs". Mounting the 3.5" drive is tricky, and requires patience. See my notes later.
The exposed 5.25" drives mount simply by pressing a button catch to release or engage two locating pins - no more screws!
I was initially taken aback when I found that the power supply mounts in the bottom rear corner of the case. Unlike my previous tower cases where it was installed at the top drawing hot air from the CPU, Cooler Master, in my opinion, has placed the PSU in the ideal position, where it neither adds to, nor is affected by in-case heat. Air is drawn from outside through the bottom of the case, and exhausted out the back.
Fan placement is ideal, with one fan on the bottom introducing fresh air, one exhausting at the rear, directly opposite the CPU fan, and two exhausting from the top, where one expects hot air to migrate. The side panels are adequately padded with soundproofing material. All fans operate at low RPM, and the overall effect is a system that is substantially quieter than my old tower with its three 3" fans.
A definite plus is the externalized connectors on the front (actually top) panel. The cables included with the case enabled me to connect the four previously unused USB ports on my Intel DP965LT mobo. You'd think the six that are externalized via the back panel would be enough, but I have steadily added to my USB peripherals, to the point where the four are a welcome addition! I was also able to connect the unused 1394 connector on my motherboard using the provided cable, and found an unused SATA port (eSATA cable provided) so that I now have all three port types available on the front panel.
The following bear mentioning, but don't detract from the beauty of the case, or my award of 5 full points:
1) Mounting the 3.5" exposed drive is tricky, and requires a lot of patience, due to the tiny screws that go into the mounting rails. The push-button catch can easily be removed for this exercise, so that the left-hand side screws can more easily be inserted. Not so for the two on the right, where the tiny screws have to be passed through tiny holes in one metal plate in order to screw through a second plate into the mounting frame. I dropped each screw multiple times, which caused them to disappear between the metal plates and required rolling the case to bring them into places where they could be retrieved using a magnetized screwdriver. Definitely an area for improvement. I do not plan to replace that drive anytime soon.
2) The knobs on my SoundBlaster Audigy 2 protrude, and don't allow the front door to be closed. This has necessitated permanently removing the door, which is a pity. I have asked Cooler Master if they have a solution for this issue.
3) Hardly a complaint - The RC-1000 has one fewer exposed drives than my old case. Also, though Cooler Master claims 5 exposed 5.25" bays, they also recommend against using the bottommost one as anything but a 3.5" bay. Still, I can live with 4 x 5.25" drive bays instead of five.
4) I would have liked a dust cover for the front panel externalized connectors. This would also help keep my two-year old grandson from pressing the power button, which he loves to do!
Sleek, beautiful case that shouts quality and craftsmanship.......2007-10-27
I basically divide cases into 3 types:
1. Economical cases which serve only to hold your hardware.
2. Gamer type cases can be cheap or one of the finest on the market, but they all offer features that make them flashy, such as windows, lights, etc.
3. Luxury cases I define as cases that are solid, very well built and made of top end materials, but are more artistic and stylish than gamer cases and are appropriate for your home office up to your corporate office.
This is one of the finest "Luxury" cases I have ever built a system in, and I have built well over 50. An aluminum skin all around with noise blocking material installed from the factory is just the start of a long list of quality features.
I would have liked to have 1 or 2 more 5 1/2 bays, but that is more of a personal preference. Above that, this is a solid, stunning case (much more so in person) that will leave most buyers content with their decision to buy this one.
