"If you looked around the net at various forums I think it goes without saying that CoolerMaster's Cosmos 1000 generated some buzz when it was first revealed earlier this year. I have to say they have hit right on a lot of marks with this case. While no case will ever appeal to everyone, I think the Cosmos 1000 has a broad appeal with its styling. The steel construction obviously increases weight, but this also helps to prevent vibrational noise in the chassis. Overall the quality is superb, but it is the little things that keep me talking about this case to friends. From push button 5.25" installation, cable management and side panels released by levers, the Cosmos was built with ease of use in mind. The sound dampening material on the side panels is a nice touch and the panels fit together very securely, leaving no room for noise or vibration."
