Last summer I wrote a review of the
Cooler Master Cosmos case and today the firm officially introduced the new Cosmos S model.
When laying eyes on the COSMOS S for the first time, one is immediately drawn in by its sleek contours and exhilarating styling. Inspired by the some of the world’s finest race cars, the COSMOS S exudes both speed and sophistication. From the meshed front and side panels to the brushed aluminum finish, the COSMOS S is pure lust, offering an enclosure fit for evolved sensibilities of the discriminating PC enthusiast.
But like a race car, the COSMOS S doesn’t get by on mere looks alone. A look under the hood reveals a high-performance chassis designed for maximum thermal performance. The side panel comes with a massive 200mm, 150 CFM fan for maximum graphics card cooling, while meshed front and side panel design offers superior ventilation. An independent air intake has been designed for a bottom-mounted PSU for easy installation and improved heat management. The top of the COSMOS S has been specially designed as well to accommodate an optional 3-fan radiator for unparalleled thermal performance. For those looking to truly put the pedal to the metal, the COSMOS S also comes complete with rear retaining holes for the latest liquid cooling kits.
As Cooler Master’s flagship gaming chassis, the COSMOS S comes with other amenities that put it at the top of its class. The enclosure comes with tool-free design, including side panels and add-on cards. On the top of the COSMOS S is an elegant touch sensor that also features a hidden I/O panel with USB ports, audio jacks, and even an eSATA port. What’s more, the COSMOS S can be fitted with Cooler Master’s unique 4-in-3 device module that allows 4 hard disks to be installed with the space of 3 5.25” drive bays.
