ok im looking for a new case for a new Pc build,
I sold my HAF 932 last year,

I went for a Cosmos S, it was meant to be the biggest case, after looking at the cooler master site,

but the body of the case (the usable area)
is smaller then my HAF,

now im thinking of reselling this and buying a ATCS 840, a HAF 932 again or a corsair 800d ( it is a bit pricey )

my new build will be water cooled
I have not made up my mind, on what CPU i will go for or what graphics card so the case needs to be large



also if i resell the cosmos s what do you think i will get

I have a Cosmos S1000, and I have no issues with it the whole case is Usable, so I dunno what you mean?

theres lots of water cooling examples fitted into the Cosmos S... and that's my plan for the future too...

its just not what i expected it to be,

it could be due to having the HAF before the cosmos

Hi Zoneuk,

Much sameness I suppose - if I were going down this route I would go with Coolermaster as they are proven products. Which I can see you and Ghozer have already - this is their current range I believe:

yeah, the S with the red LED's etc, is a little smaller internally than the Cosmos 1000 (which I have) - feel free to come and take a look some time should you wish... heres a pic of a Cosmos 1000 with tri SLI and all water cooling internal, and look at the space that still remains... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y60/Sammo106/Tri-sliupdate004.jpg
