Cooler Master Cosmos 100

I got to put my hands on this case today and really liked the way it looked/felt. Anyone have experience using this case?

I really like the drive holders and cable management for this system.

Re: Cooler Master Cosmos 100

I have had this case for a month now and I do love this case. basically tool-less design, the only thing I found out a little disappointing is the lack of a fan for the HDD, but you can fix it by either buying a new fan bracket or moving the botton fan bracket

What kind of setup do you have? Is this case truly silent? What are the temps like?

I must say that in 20 years I have never bought a case (or had to since I got some free), and this is the first case that impressed me enough to actually want to buy, even after all the cases that I have used here at work. In fact I am recommending this case to one of our customers to replace the TT Armor case they are currently using for a Dual Opteron workstation.

I am still choosing all the parts for this case, I may be thinking of switching all the fans since I heard that the stock ones aren't really good. I will be planning to use air cooling for this case since I don't want to watercool it because I don't have any experience.

My only real complaint (and this goes for several cases) is that the connectors are 4 pin molex, not the 3-4 pin mobo connector, and the fact they short you a fan and housing for the drive cage.

The reviews I have seen gave thumbs up to the cooling of the case with the original fans. Not sure how durable they are though.

BUt what if I do something wrong and some water spills on my components? i know it has happened to some people I know and I don't even know the firsst thing about watercooling, what are good components, when should I change the liquid, any drawbacks from it? does it need a lot of manteinance?
