Cooler Master Teases with a Limited all Black COSMOS PC Chassis

malware · Nov 19, 2008, 08:24 AM

Apparently, the great success of Cooler Master's COSMOS series of PC cases has stimulated the manufacturer to introduce a limited series of COSMOS chassis that will make happy only a few. The special edition of Cooler Master's original COSMOS RC-1000 case will be all painted in black, both externally and internally. Unlike the original RC-1000, the new black edition will also ship with upgraded to 140mm top fans. This version is also equipped with a clear side panel, instead of the solid one found in the early models. Cooler Master also says that all limited cases will come with a "new name & logo on each chassis", whatever that means. The official launch date for the "black" COSMOS RC-1000 is set on 11th of December with limited availability of 500 sets worldwide in selected countries only. All bundles will be marked from 1 to 500, to complete the unique feel of the case.

UPDATE: a Cooler Master Black site is now operational.

Looks like a 500 bucks case to rip off the gullible geeks... if I may say so. Who needs that.

Not quite sure where you pulled $500 from. No price is mentioned, just that there will only be 500 made. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it cost that much

I dont have a source for the price. But the limited editions from i.e. Lian Li are around those amounts of cash. Limited editions are always very expensive. The 500 bucks are only estimated^^

WC Annihilus · Nov 19, 2008, 09:13 AM

Honestly, I really wouldn't be surprised if it's more. The article says it's a bundle. At this point we don't know what the other items will be

WarEagleAU · Nov 19, 2008, 12:09 PM

With them it will probably be a few extra fans an some kind of monitoring device. 500 bucks isnt a far off estimate. I love the COSMOS cases, but they are already high enough.

TheLostSwede · Nov 19, 2008, 12:34 PM

Trust me on this one, it's not just going to be some extra fans or some kind of monitoring device, it's going to be a pretty solid bundle, but I can't tell you what

Let me guess,
1,power supply like a 850 watter
2,optional side panel with damper material
3,the hard drive fan mounts.
4,all the stuff found on the 1100 and S case
5,your name and a logo of your choice and life time warranty
6,better motherboard tray with cpu cut out like the RS840 has,also cable management
7, a few of those babes from those hardware shows (XFX girls

)
8,If you own one you get to trade it in and pay the balance owing

$500 to own? Sold!

... Wait what? I get a case too? Ok, throw it in the crate when you ship the girls over, I guess I can find a use for it.

Close, but the logistics with the girls would just be a nightmare and I'm not sure how good friends CM and XFX are

Maybe they can send you some Taiwanese booth girls instead?

imperialreign · Nov 20, 2008, 05:48 AM

based on the vague info in the OP, I'd gander $400-$450; if CM tacks in a bunch of extra hardware $600-$750.

Be glad it won't have a custom, air-brushed paint job like they offer for the Stackers . . . then you'd be looking easily over $1000.

CM does tend to get pricey, but they do try to offer a very solid product for the amount you're paying.
