For Cosmos II, it has an ability to fit in one triple rad + one double rad.
Its weight doesn't really matters unless your going to move it here and there. The way it designed looks sturdy.

A customer of mine has a brand new one for sale if anybody is interested.

The material isn't really going to affect the cooling capacity of the casing. If you couple the heat source to the aluminum chassis then yes the aluminum chassis will sink the heat better but being surrounded by aluminum vs steel would make little difference in the case's cooling properties.

We actually had similar discussion previously in one of the thread. I was told by a forummer, who claimed to be in the field of engineering, that the air in the case and surrounding the components will actually transfer heat to the casing itself. Not sure how true it is though.

I'd assume that it does in a way but unless u have direct contact between the CPU/GPU core to the chassis chances are ur only transferring a minimum amount of heat to the chassis.... thats Y we keep a good airflow in the chassis to expell the hot air instead

The chassis is ok I guess... front panel looks a tad bit fancy to me though... u can try the Cooler Master elite series such as the 431 or even the USP100 wink.gif

My opinion is yes ,better than tt v3. (tt v3 - no usb 3.0 , only 1 x12cm fan , cant do cable routing)

for your info :

X-five Raynor G1 ,, come with usb3.0+2.0 , 2x14cm led fan , 1x 12cm led fan , cable routing function ,dust filter for psu , & price suit to your budget

X-five RTX-C2 , come with usb 3.0+2.0 ,2 x12cm led fan , cable routing function , RTX (Reverse Technology Extended) where is the structure design for better ventilation system... your cpu ,hdd & graphic card all will be cold by fan separately.

both casing price wise ,,will be less than RM180 if i not mistaken ....

Looks kinda ugly in my opinion. But the airflow should be good.

Well the gigabyte chassis u mentioned has its own PSU.. cause its meant for HTPC and is to sit in the living room where u would normally place the dvd player... but in regards to the stand to mount a monitor onto the PC shassis itself... there is not a lot thats known in the local market

Added on January 15, 2012, 4:35 pmThe above is by chieftec but I do not think its available locally

I'd suggest that u get a table mounting instead where the monitor will be suspended over the working space but still mounted at the side

u can find these for about RM200+ in LYP wink.gif
