Coolermaster Cosmos 1000 Chassis

A steel and aluminum hybrid enclosure, the Cosmos 1000 Chassis is positioned to be the successor of the classic Stacker series. Coolermaster dropped us a one of these cases a while back, and it's time for us to get our screwdrivers, tear it apart and give you guys a piece of our mind.

First of all, you should have told people even before starting to review: This is the 3rd watercooling-ready enclosure of ALL time (where could be assigned a standard dual 120mm watercooling kit without doing any modifications). Other two are CM stacker and Aerocool Baydream.
Not important? Find out how much those radiators are sold? Few millions? Millions have been drilled holes to their cases for years and.... desperately waiting good enclosure. That's why it's really like winning a lottery to finally see this kind of case available. Many have lost their hope (not me, I have baydream). =)
Why not do proper review? Noise? Airflow? Temperatures? Cabling? Fans; are they good? Finish (are there sharp edges)? etc. etc.
Whatever the reason, then you shouldnt review it in the first place. Btw, watercooling is not so rare nowadays.

Firstly, I do not need you to teach me on how to review the case, and being heavy doesn't necessarily have to be a con. Some might prefer a steel case over an aluminum one because of sound dampening.
There are more enclosures out there that can accept a dual 120mm radiator than you think. I didn't find it necessary to tell them that, that's for sure. IF you're not interested in this article, too bad. I do not need you to lecture me on any aspects. Thanks. |

 | If it is S$3xx, i rather get SS TJ09.
The look is good, but the price for a steel casing is too expensive. |

Make sure it's a MaxiCab. That time I brought my TJ-07 home, the taxi driver almost didn't want to let me board. Had to put in the back seat, ended up blocking the rear view. So had to shift it lower at an angle. A real hassle. |
