I built my computer over a year ago, and decided to push the boat out a and spend a bit extra on a case. After reading some good reviews I chose to go with the Coolermaster Centurion 5 in blue, and am glad I did! I never really imagined the choice of case could make too much difference but this really is excellent. The design is simple and unassuming, yet somehow very classy, the brushed blue aluminium and blue LED's work well.
Functionally it works too. The tool-less mechanisms make installation a doddle, no more fiddling with screws on expansion brackets (although the screw holes are there should you wish, but it is very secure) and the drive bay holding clips simply work, I transport the case a lot and have had no slippages. The case includes a rear 120mm fan, which is very quiet but very effective. My only problem is the front vents (surrounding the power buttons and in the empty drive bay holders) which contain a foam for stopping dust entering the system. This would be fine if it were easy to remove, but the dust is nigh on impossible to budge and after a while starts to ruin the look. Only a minor niggle however. Overall, a definate reccomendation.

First of all the Cosmos S case comes in excellent protective packaging. A sturdy cardboard outer box encases two styrofoam blocks (top & bottom) which prevent the case from moving at all during transportation. The case is wrapped inside of a plastic bag, more
I purchased this PSU when I got the rest of my new system to build because I know Cooler Master have a good reputation when it comes to power supplies and computer cases, and I must say that I made a good choice in doing this, as I have had no problems... more
