And not very good
No reset button/touch sensor
24-pin motherboard cable annoyed me
Only one external 3.5" bay cover
No system Reset switch on control panel
4in3 HDD cage not very user friendly
An integrated speed control for the 200mm side fan would be nice
Brushed aluminum side panels hard to keep clean
Hard drive cage somewhat flimsy and not easy to install
Would like to see more fans included
Might be too big for some
I must say
I did enjoy using this case. I have always loved to customize my own and...

Difficult-to-remove drive cage
Large size and top-mounted ports preclude placing it under most desks
Touch sensitive power button could cause issues

No removable motherboard tray
Expensive
Cant turn off fan lights
No reset button (why?)
Front covers only held in place by plastic bars instead of metal onces very loose
Big!
Only available in black / silver
No removable mainboard tray
Cable extensions are ugly
Size could turn some away (but why do you want a full tower anyway?)
Overall, I was very pleased with the Cooler Master Cosmos-S chassis. I have always liked the look of the Cosmos, and really only ran into a few concerns with the airflow being the biggest issue. The Cosmos-S alleviates that issue completely while st...

When the power is on, and the IO panel and power button lights up beautifully! The glow not only looks really good, but helps you find the ports in a low light situation. BTW the square to the left is the hard drive activity light. When you close th...

The Cosmos S is definitely an impressive case. It features plenty of room for all your high end components as well as excellent air flow to keep them cool. The Cosmos S does this all while sporting a stylish look. The case is not perfect, and improveme...

Cooler master has done a terrific job in putting together the Cosmos S RC-1100. Every angle I looked at, every item I took apart to place the hardware in, was all well thought out. They have really raised the bar with the modder in mind with this cas...
Cosmos S is one of the latest and greatest cases we’ve ever used, but it has its low-points. The biggest one is the price, and €200 is just too much for an average user. We also didn’t like the fact that there’s space for just four...
