The left side panel of the sample we
received from Cooler Master has a big window. We mention it this way,
since, there are two versions of the case: the COS-5000-KWN1 ships with
window and the COS-5000-KKN1 ships with mesh structure. At the front there is the whole area dedicated to the installation of HDDs and SSDs.
Overall there is space for no less than 8 + 16 drives. The bracket allows to install HDDs and also SSDs
and mounting them is very easy thanks to the completely tool-less mounting system. For SSDs you will have use a couple of screws. If you have to mount a long graphics card
it's necessary to remove the HDD cage, but not entirely because it's
made by three modules, where each module can carry up to two hard
drives. Other than that, if you like watercooling and you want to install 240/360mm
radiators in the front, you can do so after having removed all four modules.
The bundle is standard and includes zip ties, a speaker, motherboard stand offs and mounting screws. Also there are two brackets for mounting a radiator to the front of the case. The manual is easy to follow and the illustrations are well done.
In our build we used a 240 millimeter, all-in-one liquid cooling system, installed in the top of the case. We had no issues during the installation, the radiator fits perfectly and does not cover any slots. On the top of Cosmos SE
you can install a 240 or 280mm radiator in push-pull configuration and even radiators
with 38 mm thickness fit.
Once all the components were inside the case, you can see, that the Cosmos SE is very spacious and you will be able to install large heatsinks and high-end video cards effortlessly. |
