have to see my budget how first le. besides the case probably i wanna add led fans, might be another rm100 extra. cm590 and cm690 is basically the same only rite? what are the differences?

Just get CM690 no need to buy 4in3 module. CM690 is spacious + it can accommodate many fans.

iianm, like 7 fans can be fitted into cm690.

CM690 looks better (gaming chassis). Centurion 590 looks square and not futuristic enough. But that's my view, though.

590 don't have intake at the bottom to fit fan. 690 has it. Basically 590 is the "lite" version of 690.

for those using cm690, all the fans that you guys are using are connected to the mobo fan header and molex power? or you have a seperate fan controller to control?
true also, cm590 does look a bit too squarish..cm590 hdd bays are facing front while cm690 facing sideways rite? sideways easier for removal and cable management?
and yeah, i heard cm590 also doesnt have reset button.

590 = lite but the price is only slightly cheaper. RM20 difference only.

Hi, wonder any sifu can give some commend on the side modding of the cosmos 1000, thinking of modding it with tranparent side panel, with retangular shape, hope to have some commend before i send it for modification tommorow. TQ

Actually the HDD is hard to take out because you need to open both the side casing to unplug the cables and then pull it out at another side.
I think 590 is also hard since the HDD is put inside the 4in3 module

I use molex power for the fans on my CM690, can hide the wires easier, if fit at the motherboard err, going to be messy.

Yes, using molex can easily hide the cables.

i'll always like the cosmos side panel is like stacker 832 side panel, but transparent

Anyone done it b4?
If can wana see some pic and learn it

Seem from your commend the side transparent panel doesnt look .......for cosmos 1000
