Hi all,

We have just published the worklog for Coolmiester's *Cosmos Skulltrail*
case modification. If you could post a link on your site that would be
very much appreciated.

*/Project: Skulltrail was conceived "way back" in March of 2008 at
CeBit, where Cooler Master first asked if I'd mod its new flagship case
- the Cosmos S. At the same time, the company was curious as to whether
I could get more performance from its new Aquagate Max drive bay inserts.

So, given my mission, I came away from CeBit knowing that I would need
to come up with something a bit special. Not only would it need to be
good in the looks department (without robbing the CM Cosmos-S of its
unique looks), but also performance. After a second, I thought, "What
better than a new Skulltrail system to prove the capability of the
heavily modded Aquagate?"

From that point forward, the project snowballed thanks to some major
sponsors getting involved including Intel, Zotac, and HWLabs.

Once the hardware was finalised, it soon became apparent that it would
need to be a dual loop system with the two Core 2 Extreme QX9775s and
the northbridge on one loop, and the two Zotac GeForce 9800 GX2s and the
RAM in the other (no southbridge watercooling as the GX2s completely
obstruct access) so I set about modding two Aquagates.// /
