CoolerMaster Cosmos S review -
8
There is an extra front fan in the case to cool the HDDs directly. It is a great idea to have four HDD drives with a front fan used for cooling, a very good improvement over the previous Cosmos model. The drive bay is cushioned in rubber stands, preventing resonating noises from the HDDs.
Let's have a peek how easy it is to insert and lock 5.25" devices.
The optical bay locking system is so interesting, because all you have to do is slide the drive in place and click the side button. ItÂ’s that simple. It's a precise little retention system, and it holds drives surprisingly tightly.
And if you are wondering how to access the other side, you just remove that side-panel with the click of a button as well. Very user friendly.
We inserted a hot-wired power supply without fans here to measure the volume levels this chassis makes. There's a lot of airflow going on in this case, and that doesn't help for noise levels though, have a peek:
We measure roughly 45 DBa from the system, and it does not even have one component in it. The good thing is; this is measured at maximum RPM of all fans. All the fans can be controlled. You connect them to a fan-controller or your mainboard and pretty much any high-end mainboard will allow fan control, making the chassis sound much better; at the cost of airflow though. But granted, with the fans at 100% you can definitely hear the chassis.
Cooler Master just released within the CM STORM line of products the Sentinel ZERO-G, an updated version of the last generation product, that TBH I still use. The Sentinel ZERO-G offers everything its older brother already has, but is tweaked, optimized and comes with a few surprises. We again spot the cute little OLED screen, adjustable weight system, superduper link braided 2M chord, and upgrade to 128kb of memory and yeah, it is just a really nice upgrade to what was previously launched.
CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 review
We test the new CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 CPU cooler. Though the cooler will not be high-end performance wise, it can still manage the latest Core 2 Duo and Quad processors really well, and sure, overclocked as well. This new TX3 also supports the upcoming Core i5 processors from Intel based on Socket LGA 1156. Typically this would not be a massively interesting release of course, however... with a sales price of only 14.95 EUR/USD let's face it... the dynamic certainly changes for the better.
CoolerMaster Aquagate MAX review CPU liquid cooling
A test on the CoolerMaster Aquagate MAX. This system is designed to be used inside your computer case for a completely self-contained system. If you are looking for a liquid cooling system to use for your performance computer the Cooler Master Aquagate Max may be just what you need. Dual 1200mm radiator, excellent looking reservoir and 400 liter/h pump, nice thick tubing and a very glossy water-block. A very interesting fact is .. it's not very expensive.
CoolerMaster Cosmos S review
CoolerMaster today introduced a new PC case/chassis updated from their Cosmos line of products. This unit is based on a standard Cosmos 1000 with some attention-grabbing new modifications targeted at the high-end and enthusiast consumer with a diminutive amount of money to spare. It's huge, it's profound, it's impressive, it's striking and it's called the Cosmos S; with the S for Sport.
