Cooler master cosmos ii

NewEgg has it in stock!!!!!! Of course ya better have some deeeeeep pockets for this awesome case as the Egg has it for $350 shipped

COOLER MASTER COSMOS II RC-1200-KKN1 Black Steel A...


It is just a frigging crazy awesome case, but man it would be pretty hard pressed to spend that much on a metal and plastic enclosure.

A very awesome case indeed, only downside in my opinion is that it cannot accommodate an HPTX type mobo like EVGA's SR-2

Yea hmm, that is odd. I just noticed that it states the following motherboard configurations:

"Micro ATX / ATX / Extended ATX / XL-ATX / SSI CEB / SSI EEB"

Well well i spend 500 Euro on a Lian-Li PC-V2120X and from my view ts not even 300 Euro worth, no mesh / filters for upper fans ... no SATA Backplanes nothing ......
and the Build in Fancontroller i dont even want to mention some on that
if i could make rechoice i would take the COSMOS II

compared to the prices Euro Dollar this is odd

349,99 $ newEgg

349,90 € caseking

Oh I agree n0tiert, Lian-Li is waaaaaaaaay over priced for what they are. I have owned one of their cases and I picked it up used. I was not impressed.

Don't get me wrong, if I had the extra funds I would be all over the Cosmos II. It is one sweet looking and large case.

The cosmos can accomodate an SR-2 guys, search CosmosII liquid edition on google, a guy has built a dual Xeon system with a 4 way SLI, so it fits.
The big drawbacks of this case is that you can only accomodate a slim 360 on top ( must be less than 50mm FANs included) and a single 240 on the bottom, unless you mod it.
This broke the deal for me, such a big case and virtually no space for good radiator config is a shame

Don't get me wrong but if I'd shell out more than 350 euros for a case I wouldn't want to purchase something that requires extra effort to get what should already be installable out of the factory, anyway I purchased one and I'm going to see in first person when it arrives, if it doesn't suit my tastes/needs I'll probably send it back and buy a Little Devil.

Not entirely true. there can be 50mm of rad and the fans go in the hideaway pocket at the top of the case (above the steel, but under the plastic removable top)

Sorry, I forgot to mention push+pull, thanks
Anyway I'll be able to tell by the end of this month, gonna try with an RX 360 and with a HWLabs Black Ice 360. They won't probably fit

Oh yeah with Push/pull, it will get tight, but there is more room above the board in this case than many others I see that are labeled as capable of a triple rad there
