You probably should update the bottom set/row of blue links that describe each case too.
Anyways. -trys his best not to get tempted- I wanna stick to the Cosmos S, but this is getting to be a real bugger on my mind, even if everyone tells me to get it >_>; Edit: Besides, maybe they're ACTUALLY editing the site as we speak? Edited by Axel Daemon - 13 Sep 2008 at 3:53pm |

Let's just say some of the images and such are all getting a face lift, etc...
We are adding the HAF 932, it will become the default case for the "Gaming Dominator"
The red benchmark crusher is being replaced with a Benchmark Crusher using the 950si in a white/black Cookie and Creme paint job, instead of red.
Cheers,

We have had too many issues with the Cosmos S:
1. Touch sensitive power button fails to work (1/10 orders)
2. Side panel door latches breaking during shipping (1/15 orders)
It's a great looking case, but, quality is a higher prioirty for us than looks. If that case didn't have those issues it would of been one of our standards.

damn, that sucks, I did read about the touch sensor which is why I'm beginning to lean toward HAF 932

-mumbles- The touch sensor huh? Well I hardly use my own power button
on my computer and I prefer setting it to stand by mode anyway. Aside
from those cons, isn't the case overall in terms of performance and
such good?
Speaking of shipping, are you finally offering those special fancy crates for shipping? I definitely wanna get one of those ahaha in BLACK. =D Hrrrm maybe I should just order what DST4ME orders for a case, we seem to have the same interests in mind when it comes to case anyway. For me I don't mind too much about the technical difficulties I tend to work around them when I can. Edit: Also, nice man the front of the site changed with the HAF 932, and a sleek looking cookie and creme 950SI ahaaha. Edited by Axel Daemon - 13 Sep 2008 at 8:26pm |

fixed the pic to link to full size now.
I really like how the haf 932 has a slot to fill the liquid right there on top. oh man now that the pics have changed the site look so much better Alex is the haf 932 smaller then 950si? Edited by DST4ME - 13 Sep 2008 at 8:39pm |

Actually with as little as many reviews shown they didn't find that
spot to be too convenient. (Realistically you want your disc/optical
drive first for starters right?)
And not ALL reservoir/tanks are gonna be compatible with that hole. Still the ability to place your drink or something on top of it sounds nice I guess.... And hrrrm so the ability to mount up top is gone though, as you can see here.... That and the dimensions on that thing I just realized dramatically dropped. DST4ME (W)9.0 x (H)21.5 x (D)22.7 inch for the HAF 932 8.27, 23.82, 20.67 respectively for the 950 SI So the 950 is taller than the HAF 932, but that's about it... The Cosmos S outsizes those two though lol. Edited by Axel Daemon - 13 Sep 2008 at 8:50pm |

I'm not understanding, the top slot is a drive slot. so the 950 is less then an inch taller? thats nothing.
I will have to make up my mind when nehalem comes out but I like the haf 932 hard choice but teh haf 932 does cost less also Edited by DST4ME - 13 Sep 2008 at 9:13pm |

Really? I thought the top of the Cosmos S was a place where you could mount the radiator.
And by dimension I was reffering to.. how should I put this.. how long it is? (They use the word dimension for that.) The 950SI is taller than the Cosmos S I noticed... just barley though reading these numbers. (W)10.47, (H)23.54, (D) 24.72 inches for the Cosmos S. |

Hrrrm true midway around the pages I read about a grill. (Actually there was a post about the grill not helping)
-shrugs- I won't let it concern me too badly, worse comes to worst, order a glass panel and mount lotsa fans lol. Hopefully by October or some such they come with a solution with the power button. Or make another version of the Cosmos S, an actual physical power button! |

After reading some reviews on the HAF 932, I think the design is very well engineered. That said, it's appearance is a bit aggressive looking for the average person IMO. I'm a geek that loves form following function and much of the design portrays that concept. Still, some of the lines are bold and, well, not for the understated crowd (or most women).
The front strikes me as a mixture of practical and a bit too racy. In the end, the performance of the case would prolly win me over, but the looks are offputting to someone wanting a "pretty face."  |

-shivering in the corner- Must not convert must not convert must not convert.... -mumbles that continously-
Anyways, I think I'll stick with the Cosmos S, specifically because.... radiator mount on top, and ther'es probably enough room to stick another radiator somewhere in the case. |

All I have to say, is im buying this case. I have loved it since I saw it at Nvision and I still do now. Its perfect for all my needs and its just a nice over all case with excellent air flow.

I wish this case was available as a listed option a few weeks ago. I thought I ordered the 950 case, but I got the 850.
I did NOT want a front door  .This new cooler master case would have been perfect for me - I like almost all of the specs/reviews. Oh well - maybe on my next build |

you are not the only one about the front door, I read around many other forums, people complain about the problem, specially with vista, since it open the tray all the time. Edited by DST4ME - 14 Sep 2008 at 2:18pm |

I'm sure he knows that, he's just literally stating how does an individual fix it without having to go through that process.

If the power button fails (which it has) because the sensor looses its sensitivity, we have to have the whole system sent back, we have to replace the entire case and re-build the whole entire computer.
It's a real big pain.
