Cooler Master RC-1100 Cosmos S Case

**MIG-31** · Apr 3, 2008, 05:26 PM

Today we will be taking a look at the Cosmos S RC-1100 case from Cooler Master. Cooler Master is known for providing a huge array of different items, all of which are high quality for the devices level. Some of the items they produce are cases, power supplies, VGA coolers, and very quiet case fans. Before we get started, let's explore where this case originated from. The predecessor to this case was the Cosmos RC-1000. The goal of the legacy Cosmos RC-1000 case was to first provide a very quiet chassis while keeping the case as cool as possible at the same time; a long time standard for Cooler Master. The case even had extra soundproofing material added to greatly increase the noise suppression capability. This case was made out of steel and was much heavier than the Cosmos S case, the biggest things to keep in mind are that the cases have identical outside dimensions, yet the aluminum Cosmos S version is 3.1kg lighter than the Cosmos case; this makes it almost 20% lighter. This should be enough of a background, if you wanted a review of the original Cosmos case, you would be reading it now. Below I have supplied several pictures of the original Cosmos RC-1000 case in case you wanted to get more familiar with the Cosmos S's roots before moving on. I know you want to get to the case in question, so let's make some moves and get to the revamped Cosmos S case.

I keep seeing all the hype on this case, but quite frankly it leaves me cold.

I like the CM690 a LOT better. Not so big that it takes 2 men and a boy to move it, nicer setup for HDDs, and doesn't have the 'gamer geek' styling

The cosmos S and 1100 series both have what i think is a backward step from the Cosmos 1000....

i'm not giving my 1000 up for nothing unless they improve things.
