Cooler Master COSMOS C700M - ARGB Aluminium Case with Dual Curved Glass Doors, Ultra-Modular Frame and Extreme Hardware Capacity - Full Tower

Product Information

I had additional problems where my Intel 4790K with a nice big coolermaster heatsink on it, was too big for the pull out tray, so I had to install it the old fashioned way. In addition to the dual-layer black mesh lining, the openings in the front panel and large removable plastic mesh filters that cover the length of the case's front and bottom, the entire top panel is filtered. In addition to the chimney config, you can also reverse the motherboard tray and have the motherboard face case-right instead of case-left. Despite all the changes the Cosmos C700M retains its original look and feel a combination of an aluminum and dark element design.

Thermal benchmarking is conducted for 1400 seconds (23 minutes), a period we've determined sufficient for achieving equilibrium. You can also unscrew and remove the internal GPU mount altogether if you just want it out of your way.

This stunning-looking case has a lot to offer, but as audacious as it is, some shortcomings around build quality and installation ease give us pause.

Taking a moment to be incredibly picky, there are some pieces of the plastic trim that don’t fit quite flush. The case offers rich connectivity options along with a curved tempered glass side panel to showcase a build that stands out from the rest.The Cooler Master Cosmos C700M Big Tower offers a modular interior design and a futuristic exterior.

Simply place the drive on the rubber cushions, secure it with the long screws and place the tray in any of the many possible positions on the hard-drive plate. com is a leading authority on technology, delivering lab-based, independent reviews of the latest products and services. All the cables we needed could be neatly bundled to the back of the motherboard tray without bulging the side panel out even slightly, and that’s with room left over inside the cavernous PSU shroud. It's actually 4 inches too tall to fit in the niche of my computer desk, and close to 6 inches taller and several inches wider than any of the other cases I have in my possession at the moment.degree result is one of the best GPU results we’ve seen, which is why there was so little improvement when the front panel was removed. The Master is back in da house as they just have released an updated top the enthusiast class Cosmos series. We will still be reviewing the Cooler Master C700M on its practical merits as an enclosure, as always, but are also taking into consideration its status as a halo product -- that is, something from which features will be pulled to the low-end later. Here, simply take the bracket off the motherboard tray, slide the drive into place, and screw it down. The RGB lighting from before has been upgraded to addressable RGB, and this time it runs in continuous strips on both sides of the case and spanning the top, front, and bottom, which makes for some eye catching rainbow effects.

Type-C ports, headphone and microphone jacks, a hard drive activity LED, a fan control switch, an ARGB lighting controller and a reset and power button. The complexity of adding a drive is boosted by the fact that you will need to have one hand in the right side of the case holding the bracket in place as you screw it in on the left side. There is still some external plastic, most notably the rear shroud which seems to be purely aesthetic.Mounting the PSU can be a little dicey with the left panel door hanging in the way, but you'll do it just once. You won't want to even look at this case unless you're rocking a full-ATX or bigger mainboard, a high-end video card you're jonesing to show off, a liquid-cooling rig (or the aim of installing a custom cooling loop or loops), a big PSU, and a gaggle of drives looking for a home.

If you're relying on or supplementing that with air cooling, you get three 140mm PWM case fans pre-installed in the front and one in the rear as an exhaust. The center portion of the front panel features a slotted hinge at the base that allows the panel to tilt outwards to allow access to the optical drive slot without having to fully remove the front panel.
