Erm... budget still not sure yet.. Silverstone temjin is the TJ07? how about price for cosmos pure?

& cosmos pure dont have front fan?

TJ07 is readily available among most reputable resellers in Lowyat.

However, depends on what you want to do with your rig. If you are into watercooling, TJ07 or Corsair 800D are among the top choices.
Cosmo II should cost around RM900, since it is made from steel. It should be good for watercooling too judging from the online reviews.

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.

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