Coolermaster Cosmos 1000

[bradw]

I am currently planning my next rig and so far it is as follows:

Intel Core2 Duo E8500
Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3P
Samsung 1TB 7200rpm SATA II HD103UJ
GSkill PI Series DDR2 PC2 8800 CL5 4GB (2x2GB)
CoolerMaster Real Power M850 Modular
Inno3D GTX260+ (Core 216)
LG GH22NS30 SATA DVDRW Black OEM

However I'm having trouble picking my case.
I really like the Coolermaster Cosmos 1000.
It's well priced ($325AUD), seems to be quiet and offer efficient cooling.
I intend on using my rig for gaming and possibly having a crack at some
over clocking.

I was just hoping to get some advice or opinions concerning my choice in case.

Cheers.

Just looking at it I'd say it looks like a ventilation train wreck. But I could be wrong considering I have no experience with it. People seem to love the Stacker as far as ventilation goes but I doubt it's as quiet and it's not quite as sleek looking. Basically it comes down to personal choice.

no, get the HAF 932 instead (Also from CM). the air flow in it is obsurd and it should be pretty quiet. build quality is susposed to be higher than the stacker even. cosmos wasnt susposed to be as good from what i read. a lot of the people who are getting it are getting it as one of their first full towers, so they havent really seen what the highest grade full towers are like. got a chance to play around with the cosmos at frys (they had one on display) and i have to say i think my thermaltake armor was built better lol

Thanks faxon.
The HAF 932 looks pretty good.
