  • Cooler Master has done it again designing a very unique case. The Cosmos S is a case which looks awesome, is very spacious and is constructed from aluminium – - a lighter metal which dissipates heat much quicker than steel. This makes the Cosmos S a...

  • The Cosmos S is definitely better than the Cosmos 1000 - it has a more refined design and it looks better. However, while its well designed, the ideas arent always well implemented in reality thanks to several build quality niggles, such as the hard...

  • Abstract:  The Cosmos S is the successor to the Cosmos 1000. It looks almost identical, but Cooler Master has addressed most of the concerns that users had about the 1000. The full-height front door has gone and there are 10 removable 5in mesh panels. Were al...

  • The Cosmos S is nothing short of an amazing case. CoolerMaster have taken the original Cosmos design and made some major changes to make it look even more high-tech. The darker colors as well as the red lights used on the front fan, power button and c...

  • With a ticket in excess of £150, the RC1100 is on the pricy side but does look the part. And not only does the colour scheme work well, its clear that the quality control has been ramped up. Theres also epic storage potential - up to 8TiB if you inst...

  • The Coolermaster Cosmo S is an exceptionally well made case, but it is not without fault. For one, the lack of a reset button, and strangely placed touch-sensitive power button will cause some frustrating issues. Providing the tight drive bays are sor...

  • Contrairement à l’Antec P182 qui est une évolution du P180, le Cosmos S n’est pas une mise à jour du Cosmos RC-1000 que nous avons testé en octobre dernier. Il s’agit d’une version à l’optique radicalement différente qui priv...
